“We had a great time at The Old Granary and are keen to return next year if possible.”
We loved the stunning view across the Camel Estuary from the upstairs master bedroom windows - wonderfully uplifting to wake up to.
We know the area well and have done most things many times over, but this year we did try something new - sampling the food and wines at Trevibban Farm as the sun set over the relaxed informal garden. Very enjoyable.

The property
If you're looking for a peaceful, tranquil family holiday home within a short distance of Rock then The Old Granary has to be the one for you. Spacious living accommodation, which is chic and colourful, has been finished to a high standard within this traditional styled property. There is room for 10-11 to sleep comfortably in 5 bedrooms with 4 bathrooms, so fabulous for two families to share with room to spare. Set on a small private estate, accessed via a private drive with a large garden and a sunny terrace to enjoy evening drinks or family BBQs. A footpath leads you down to the foreshore at the idyllic and undiscovered Cant cove.This self catering property is tastefully decorated with lovely bursts of colour and features. The highlight has to be the situation and the views across the estuary and the open farmland beyond. Imagine returning from a hard day at the beach to this beautiful setting and south facing garden with friends and family to BBQ some freshly caught mackerel and indulge in a glass or two of the local Camel Valley fizz. Comfy sofas and a practical, atmospheric wood burner help to make the Old Granary a perfect house for all seasons. There is even a wet room and a Jacuzzi bath for warming up after a bracing surf, fishing trip or sailing lesson. Shared use of a communal tennis court is available too whenever its free with no booking required.This is an exceptional location within an easy drive of the popular surfing beach of Polzeath, the sailing hub of Rock or the family friendly bay at Daymer but also close to the thriving town of Wadebridge with shops, supermarkets a sports centre and cinema. To further explore the estuary, bikes can be hired from Wadebridge or Padstow so cyclists can follow the old railway line all along the opposite bank of the river Camel.Ground Floor:

About the location
ROCK
Padstow 1.5 miles via ferry; Polzeath 2.8 miles; Wadebridge 6.2 miles.
Rock is a desirable and much sought after coastal village located on the north eastern bank of the River Camel opposite the famous harbour town of Padstow which is easily reached by a regular ferry service. The summer home of royalty and celebrities offering top class restaurants and quality shops, the real draw is the array of watersports including sailing, water skiing, windsurfing and angling. Continuing on a sporting theme, the golf course at nearby St Enodoc is considered to be one of the best in the country. With an abundance of world class beaches all within a short radius it is easy to see why Rock holds its popularity.
