“As always- a comfortable and enjoyable stay at Medway.”

“Dining table top requires sanding back & varnish as was marked & sticky in patches when we walked in.”

No matching plates or bowls for four let alone eight & lots of crockery chipped. Sealant inside shower door mouldy & peeling. Whole bungalow required redecoration & carpets shampooing. I received an email from the owner enquiring if I would like to rebook with either him or via a different agent whom he is changing to which I found highly unprofessional.

“Overall Medway is a very good place to spend a holiday, however we would make the following comments.”

1.Not supplying laundry is an inconvenience which people do not need on holiday. 2.the back garden is not safe for dogs as their are openings down both sides of the property to a very busy road. 3. The hot water is set far to high, someone, ( a child?) will get scalded at current setting. 4. In poor weather conditions, (as we had) it would be helpful if the TV had a "smart" chip, (cost £30?) to allow guests more choice for entertainment. In conclusion we had a enjoyable stay at Medway.

“Another lovely week at Medway, a great holiday home.”

A good location, combined with everything you need for a relaxed holiday. Two ensuite bedrooms and a further 2 bathrooms make this an ideal holiday house if you have teenagers! Hope to see you again next year.

“The first week was very warm- when we got the sun beds out they were broken- we bought some strong ‘cable’ and repaired them so they were fit for use.”

This aside, everything was super and we had a most enjoyable stay. We hope to be back next summer. Gill

“We have had a very comfortable stay.”

We did purchase and leave a few extra kitchen utensils. Generally though this is a superb bungalow - very practical and we love it.

- Gillian, April 2023

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback; we are really pleased you had such a comfortable stay and loved the property. Thank you as well for buying and leaving the extra utensils, it was not expected but is very much appreciated. John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner
Irene March 2023

“We have stayed at Medway several times, it suits our purpose & particularly grateful that it takes dogs.”

The large kitchen/dining room & utility room are ideal. Given it was the week running up to Easter it was extremely expensive, only two of us go now so 3 bedrooms are not used, therefore, in future we will probably look for something smaller & cheaper which is a shame. We were astounded at having to pay 2 lots of £35 to take our 2 dogs. We have been using John Bray for some 40 years, the last 23 with 2 dogs & this is the first time we have had to pay for each. The property, whilst comfortable & clean, is due a facelift. A pair of scissors & tin opener were both showing signs of rust but the property is fairly well equipped. Ideal garden but not dog safe as the sides are open, not a problem for our dogs but could be for others.

“We have holidayed at Medway for years and love this house as it suits all our needs.”

The only request would be to replace the hob.

- Gillian, March 2022

Gillian January 2022

“We love this bungalow which is why we stay here so often.”

We have suggested recently that the hob needs upgrading as one ring doesn’t work( back left)and it is slow compared to more modern induction hobs. That aside a very practical bungalow that works for all sorts of family dynamics. Gill

- Gillian, January 2022

Thank you for your feedback on your stay. We will pass your comments onto the owner. We hope to welcome you back to north Cornwall in the near future - John Bray on behalf of the owner Property Owner

“Only that the second en-suite shower door seal was broken but that has already been reported.”

Normally any suggestions for improvement are dealt with promptly.

Roger September 2021

“The bungalow was ideal for 3 generations for the weekend.”

We have stayed in Rock several times in the last 10 years . But normally off season so this was something new and the holiday did not disappoint.

Carol August 2021

“We had a great time.”

Sun came out as well! The property exactly suited a family, especially as there were very few nick nacks around liable to being broken or mislaid. All white goods worked very well. I do hope other families also find Medway as pleasing

The property

Medway is conveniently positioned in the centre of Rock in North Cornwall, very close to the local shops including a newsagent, bakery, butcher and a fishmonger. It has a secure west-facing garden with rear views over open countryside. A central spot, Medway is ideal for exploring the wonderful beaches, estuary and golf courses that are all within easy range. The house can accommodate 8 guests in four bedrooms with four bathrooms, making it versatile for two families sharing or a family holidaying with the grandparents or friends.The holiday house has two kingsize bedrooms, both with en suites; one even has French doors leading out to the sun terrace. Twin beds and bunk beds make up the further two bedrooms. The rear garden includes a patio/sun terrace with garden furniture and a barbeque, perfect for family evening gatherings after stocking up in the nearby shops and delicatessen. Nothing beats fresh local mackerel! You can also bring your four-legged friends along (by arrangement) and take them down to the dog friendly beaches of Rock and Daymer Bay.Golfers are spoilt for choice here as they can benefit from the beautiful course at St Enodoc or in the other direction The Point at Polzeath, which also has spa, gym, tennis and swimming pool facilities. Walkers can set out to explore the stunning views from the coastal paths with a choice of easy or arduous routes. For surfing and bodyboarding we recommend Polzeath beach, with surf lessons and equipment to hire by the hour. Rock itself has a few lovely spots for evening dining, and when you have tried those, why not take the ferry to the fishing port of Padstow with pubs and restaurants aplenty. To journey home late at night you'll need to call on the water taxi to whisk you back across the river, a truly memorable end to a wonderful evening.Accommodation: Entrance Hall Kitchen/Diner Utility Room Lounge Cloakroom with W.C. & Shower Bedroom 1: Kingsize Bed (5 ft) with en-suite Shower/W.C. with french doors to Sun Terrace Bedroom 2: Kingsize Bed (5 ft) with en-suite Shower/W.C.

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.
