Commanding elevated and breathtaking views of the idyllic St Ives harbour, the Tregenna Castle Hotel and Resort covers 72 acres and presents a go to location for tourists and families wishing to experience the delights of sea and countryside from within an attractive mix of traditional and contemporary settings.
The hotel complex itself is renown throughout the area and beyond UK shores, having been the location where US president Joe Biden stayed during the G7 summit in 2021. Now the resort looks to the future by expanding its portfolio with the help of Tregenna Homes, in the building of a group of select properties for private sale.
Castle Village, as the development is known, provides a selection of 2 and 3 bed homes built to the highest design and environmental standards. With an emphasis on natural affinity and sustainability, Vicaima were approached by leading merchant partners Jewson of Hayle, to provide doorsets that did justice to this ethos and embodied natural design excellence.
The Vicaima Easi-Fit door kit system was selected, which consisted of FD30 and third-party accredited fire performance options and included over height door dimensions in many areas. The kits included a striking door design with the use of Heritage Oak horizontal veneer, combining decorative grooves and contrasting black ironmongery. FSC certified Heritage Oak from Vicaima’s Essential range presents figurative knots and distinctive woodgrain configurations that reflect all the much-loved characteristics and charm of natural wood veneers.
Taking full advantage of Vicaima’s design flexibility, door faces were further enhanced by the inclusion of 4 horizontal ‘V’ shaped grooves in a tasteful light brown stain and contrasted by the specification of black ironmongery to complete the ensemble.
Easi-Fit doorkits and the Heritage Oak finish are just two examples of fresh and imaginative design and performance options offered by Vicaima. For more inspiration, download a copy of the Vicaima Interior Door Selector, Visit the Vicaima website www.vicaima.com , contact info@vicaima.com or
