Emma and Ziggy
Our property was built in 1886 and served as the County Police Station until 1977. We still have the original Victorian Police cells with original doors and features onsite. The cells have been renovated and we will be renting them out to guests from the middle of October 2023! We are very fortunate to have some stunning views across the Kensey Valley, Lanstefan (St Stephens), and Launceston Castle, as well as to live in a very quiet part of town, despite being minutes walk from the medieval town market square, the castle, and the shops! If you need to get a taxi or you come without a car, and need a lift somewhere within a reasonable distance, please do feel free to ask Emma or Ziggy for a lift as we have been happy to oblige, if we are about when you need to go out! We feel very privileged to be the current custodians of the Old Police Station and hope, very much, that you will enjoy your stay with us!
My Dad (Ziggy) and I, jointly own the Old Police Station. Ziggy is a very gifted cabinet maker, interior designer, luthier, artist, and musician. Emma is also a musician, and has a varied career as a psychologist, art historian, teacher, and artist/crafter. Emma has recently established the Launceston Folk Club that runs a monthly event and has some huge names coming to Launceston over the next year including, Martin Carthy, Anna Ryder, Mike Silver, Steve Tilston, Emily Slade, Jim Causley, The Stowes, Sarah McQuaid, and Jake Walton. So do ask us about that if it interests you. We love being part of the local music scene, regularly playing live at the local Bell Inn (you must go there when you stay ;) ) on the second Sunday of the month. There are lots of local music nights in Launceston now. We love meeting people and sharing our renovation project journey with those who are interested. We are friendly and approachable so, please, do come and ask us if you need anything or want to know more and the local area, attractions, and businesses.
There is so much to do both in Launceston and within a short distance. The town itself is full of friendly and welcoming people and you will find people most helpful. We like to use local businesses so, if you see something in the house you like the look of, we can point you in the direction of the business who made it! We are situated in between Bodmin Moor and Dartmoor and only 20 minutes or so from the coast and from amazing places such as Tintagel Castle and Boscastle, on the north coast!
