    “It was wet and cold when we arrived.”

    No one was in it the week before so the property was quite cold. Property has an Air Source Heat Pump. It was set at 13c and took a long time to warm up. Found it a totally useless system. No instructions on how to use its controller. Luckily they had two electric heaters. The fact they needed to provide these speaks for itself. The hot water was not very hot if you wanted a nice bath. They had two instruction books for visitors which contained three different Wi Fifi codes. Its was a nice ...

    No one was in it the week before so the property was quite cold. Property has an Air Source Heat Pump. It was set at 13c and took a long time to warm up. Found it a totally useless system. No instructions on how to use its controller. Luckily they had two electric heaters. The fact they needed to provide these speaks for itself. The hot water was not very hot if you wanted a nice bath. They had two instruction books for visitors which contained three different Wi Fifi codes. Its was a nice property if you stay in the warmer weather but our holiday was spoilt having to mess about trying to get warm for the first few days. Not very customer focussed.

The property

Chimings is a bright and stylish bungalow tucked away in the charming village of Rock, Cornwall.

Recently renovated and extended, this welcoming retreat offers a quaint escape for up to six guests, making it ideal for families or groups of friends.

Set within a private, south-facing garden, the home is just a short stroll from local amenities and the golden beaches of Rock, Daymer Bay, and Polzeath.

Inside, the open-plan living area is bathed in natural light, thanks to large patio doors that open onto the garden.

This thoughtfully designed space features a modern, well-equipped kitchen, a generous dining table, and a plush seating area—perfect for cooking, dining, and spending quality time together.

Adjacent to this is a sunny sitting room, complete with a roof lantern, woodburning stove, and comfortable leather seating, creating a homely spot to unwind.

Throughout much of the home, mellow oak flooring adds warmth and character, leading you out to the enclosed garden—an ideal space for children and pets to play safely, with views stretching out to the rolling Cornish countryside.

The bungalow offers three beautifully presented bedrooms: a spacious super-king-size with en-suite, and two twin rooms, all served by a sleek family bathroom and an additional cloakroom.

From this tranquil base, you’re perfectly placed to explore the best of North Cornwall.

Wander across Porthilly beach into Rock, where you’ll find a sailing club, water sports school, golf courses, and a variety of shops, cafés, and restaurants.

Scenic coastal paths lead to Brae Hill and Daymer Bay, a family-friendly beach ideal for swimming and windsurfing.

For surf lovers, Polzeath offers waves for all skill levels and a lively beach vibe.

Or hop on the ferry to Padstow to explore the Camel Trail and sample award-winning wines at the nearby Camel Valley vineyard.

All this and more awaits you at Chimings—a lovely Cornish escape with everything you need for a memorable seaside holiday.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

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.
