“Very nice stay just a couple of things security light on side of house flashing on and off all day and night and also stone steps in garden some are loose and unsafe for young children otherwise everything perfect.”

“We love the space and layout of the house.”

It is perfectly situated and feels like a real home. Although it is a little dated we found this charming.

“Master bedroom would be better with a super king size bed (bed was a little uncomfortable).”

The hot and cold taps in en-suite basin need new washers also there is a very bad airlock in the downstairs shower room. Kitchen could do with a decent set of sharp knives. Property in great location. One thing you unfortunately you can do nothing about is the lamp post right outside the house, we live in the South Downs national park and have no light pollution, so we found house very light during the night and hard to sleep. I think renters should be made aware of this? Also the speed of the cars down the road. We would definitely rent it again though. I was not impressed with my dealings with Sykes they need to up their game considerably if they want to match John Bray.

- Keith, September 2021

We hope you still managed to enjoy your visit despite these issues and would love to welcome you back to North Cornwall in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner.

Darren September 2021

“I thought that the excessive price hike heat on year (£800, with £200 indemnity) was too high, coupled with the poor cleaning detail in the property (old boxer shorts from previous people included) was not good.”

The property is in a great location and had everything we wanted, however the lack of basic facilities (salt / pepper run out, plus a quarter of toilet roll left) left us feeling that the property is more of a cash cow for the owners rather than a good customer experience. Most Sykes properties include a bottle of wine, milk and nice touches upon entry (flowers etc) from all previous visits we’ve had. Lastly, it’s very difficult to tell a four year old that she can’t go on a trampoline that needs condemning as she doesn’t understand the concept! All in all, a few detailed touches and lighter bill for the experience would have made for far better reviews, but sadly there was no eye for detail in this property at the price paid.

Howard September 2021

“The property was situated in a very good location.”

Balconies overlooking the estuary were very nice. Overall the property was of a reasonable standard but getting a bit "tired" with need for upgrading, especially the bathrooms. The description of the outside suitable for BBQ was misleading in that there was no BBQ facility. Also, plenty of space for bikes etc meant that you actually had to leave them outside which is not suitable for expensive items.

- Howard, September 2021

Thank you for your comments. We will investigate these. We hope you enjoyed your stay regardless of these issues and would love to welcome you back in the future. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

“Many thanks we had a wonderful holiday, incredible weather and a very comfortable house.”

- Mrs. Ann Harris, Nov 2018
Mr. & Mrs. David Swann Aug 2017

“We enjoyed our stay very much.”

In the properties which allow dogs it might be good to have a beach guide for dogs and perhaps some info on pubs or eateries that accept dogs. We did our own research and visited four new beaches Harlyn Bay, Constantine Bay, Booby's Bay and Holywell Bay. Plus our favourites Rock and Daymer Bay. We also hired dog crates at the cycle hire to tow so we were able to do the camel trail to Padstow with our old dog and puppy who both can not walk too far.

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.
