“We had a wonderful week in Rock.”

The house is in a fantastic location and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. More toilet roll for 6 guests, would be good! As would a dining table with 6 chairs. (We’ve also stayed at number 14 and they have the dining table in a position closer to the kitchen which allowed for a larger table - just FYI!) But overall, great location, great value and well appointed. We had a lovely stay.

“Lovely property to which we have returned year after year.”

Great views over the estuary. Wonderful to sit on the balcony with an evening drink. Ideal location for Rock beach. Not the poshest property in town, but well maintained and great value.

“"We had a lovely stay in this well appointed and perfectly located house.”

The shower temperatures are rather temperamental but that’s the only downside!"

“I think it is unacceptable that the beds were so uncomfortable that none of us have slept well at all all week.”

The mattresses are obviously old ones from another house, our one had a huge dip in it. Our 70 year old mother had to sleep on the sofa as the other mattresses were so old and uncomfortable. We all have bad backs now Slipway is a great location. The living room is comfortable and the kitchen has lots of utensils and cookware. The shower pressure is terrible. The other shower is not as advertised with no fixings. The floor was dirty on our arrival.

- Daniel, September 2022

Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay at Slipway 16. We have passed your comments to the owner regarding the beds. The issue with the shower water pressure and fixings have been passed to the maintenance team. We are very sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you during your stay.- John Bray Cornish holidays on behalf of the owner Property Owner
Liz June 2022

“16 Slipway is a lovely place to stay, especially if you are a small family or just two of you.”

Don’t expect everything to be brand new but It is well equipped and comfortable enough. And the view from the open plan living space and balcony is beyond fabulous. Parking is good (top tip: use back door for loading and unloading - and avoid a lot of steps!)

- Liz, June 2022

Thank you for your feedback on Slipway 16. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcome you back in north Cornwall in the future. - John Bray Cornish holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner
Lesley June 2022

“Really enjoyed our holiday.”

Great location and well maintained property. The only issue we had was the fact that bed linen and towels were not included which was was very inconvenient.

- Lesley, June 2022

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback for this property. Whilst we understand your frustration, It is out of John Brays hands when it comes to linen being provided. We are always working with owners to improve the service we all give. John Bray on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

Slipway 16 is a mid terrace holiday cottage enjoying superb estuary views from its reverse level open plan sitting room and sunny balcony.

The self catering cottage is ideally suited to a beach loving family; it will sleep 6 guests in 3 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms with one parking space.

The proximity to the beach and waterfront is fantastic and there is a cluster of beach and fashion shops, cafes and bar/restaurants all within an easy stroll.

There are many more beaches nearby with popular Polzeath and Daymer bay being less than a five-minute drive away. Slipway 16 has a courtyard patio above the garage so there's outside space to dry wetsuits or to leave buggies or surfboards.

The ground floor has a bathroom and a shower room plus a useful utility room.

A double bedroom and a twin bedded room are also on this level; the top of the stairs has a stair gate.

The main living space is on the first floor where views across the estuary and across to the fields stretch between St George's Well to Hawker's cove.

There's a bright, white fitted kitchen and the third bedroom with 3ft bunk beds.The sunny balcony is ideal for early evening drinks, or you could pop down the road for a drink and a meal at the Mariners pub.

For an enjoyable night out book a restaurant in Padstow if you can chose between the celebrity chef Rick Stein's trio of eateries or Paul Ainsworth's!

There is a huge choice of food on both sides of the water with the passenger ferry by day or the water taxi by night leaving you free to indulge in Cornish Ales or Camel valley wines without having to worry about driving home!Ground Floor: 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.

Please note the property has a stair gate at the top of the stairs.
