    Poor directions to the property, especially in the dark, “just on the right” on a 1.5 mile road is not helpful, took 20 minutes to find it. Easy to rectify by giving the actual whatthreewords words in the direction email. The house is on the main road which was unexpectedly very busy and the traffic noise was intrusive, especially in main bedroom. The main bedroom has a small double bed, for a house/room of this size it was disappointing and uncomfortable for two adults. All beds were covered in a plastic mattress protector which was like sleeping on the ground sheet of a tent. Heating was a struggle, it took a few days to get the ground floor to a comfortable temperature, not helped by the log burner which was very poor and extremely difficult to get logs burning. External areas were very nice, garden seating area to the rear was lovely. Great base to explore the North Coast of Cornwall.

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.
