The Brothers purchased a large coastal villa on Greenock Road, Largs, in 1920. The house was intended as a holiday/retirement home for Brothers. In 1921 the Brothers opened a school for young boys within the property named 'St. Columba's Preparatory School'. The Brothers eventually sold the property in 1980 and three Brothers moved to a smaller house on Irvine Road, remaining in Largs to offer help to the local community.
