Our Story
Welcome To Halsetown
In 1831, Mr James Halse who lived near St Ives developed an ambition to be elected as the area’s MP at Westminster. The problem was, in the 1800’s only men with land were allowed to vote. Halse set about building one of the first planned villages in the country – including houses for his 80 or so miners. He didn’t stop with the houses either, and Halsetown also boasted a brand new school with master’s house, a chapel and cemetery, several wells – and a pub, The Halsetown Inn.
On polling day on 11 December 1832, his new landowners duly elected James Halse to parliament. One can only imagine the celebrations that took place in The Halsetown Inn that evening.
200 years later, May 2021, in the aftermath of a global pandemic, Mark Tindal, a successful Scottish businessman and entrepreneur from Penzance opens the doors to a lockdown-exhausted public, ready for a warm inviting Sunday lunch and a pint in the beer garden.
Want to know how to cook these amazing meals yourself?Mark and his team has you covered too. The cooking school at the Halestown has one simple objective; to share the love of freshly-made traditional food with everyone at prices everyone can afford and at all skill levels.
