Description

Nestled near the tranquil waters of the River Camel in the scenic village of Rock, Cornwall, Nine Slipway Cottages offers a delightful coastal retreat just moments from Rock Beach. With convenient parking for two cars, sea views from the balcony, and a thoughtfully designed open-plan layout, this charming cottage is perfectly suited for families or groups of friends in search of a seaside getaway. Step inside to discover a bright and airy entrance-level floor, where a vaulted double-height ceiling creates an immediate sense of space and elegance. The open-plan living area includes a fully equipped kitchen, ideal for preparing home-cooked meals to enjoy around the generous dining table, which comfortably seats eight. The dining space is enhanced by a large wooden table, cushioned bench, and dining chairs, offering a warm and sociable setting for shared meals. After dinner, unwind in the inviting sitting area, where a fluffy corner sofa beckons you to relax in front of the wall-mounted TV. Expansive windows and sliding doors open onto the balcony, bathing the room in natural light and offering seamless access to the stunning coastal views. A bookshelf with nautical accents and a framed picture add a touch of personality and charm to the space.

Spread across three levels, the property features four beautifully presented bedrooms. On the ground floor, a super king-size bedroom boasts a stylish en-suite with a walk-in shower, basin, heated towel rail, and WC. You'll also find a king-size bedroom, a single bedroom, and a flexible family room with a bunk bed and single bed—ideal for accommodating a variety of group sizes. A family bathroom, complete with a bath, overhead shower, basin, and WC, serves these rooms, ensuring everyone has space to refresh and prepare for the day. Outside, the enclosed front terrace invites you to breathe in the fresh sea air. The sun-drenched decking area is perfect for lounging, while the outdoor shower provides a convenient way to rinse off after beach adventures. The highlight of the property is undoubtedly the balcony, thoughtfully furnished for comfort and offering panoramic views across the front row of Slipway Cottages, out to the sea, Padstow, and the estuary. Savour your morning coffee or unwind with a drink in the evening as you soak in the serene coastal scenery and gentle sea breeze. Make the most of your stay by exploring the local area. Begin with a visit to the National Lobster Hatchery to learn about marine conservation—an engaging experience for all ages. For a day of excitement, head to Camel Creek Family Adventure Park, where rides, attractions, and play areas promise fun for the whole family.

Great location and property.

The property has all that you need for a break away from home. Excellent view of the estuary and 1min walk from the mariners and 5 mins to a couple of other restaurants and cafe. It is a little tired and could do with a full deep clean/ refresh. The key box could do with replacing as it is difficult to open due to age and rusty/damage. It would help if there were instructions on how to gain hot water as this took a good 24hrs to work out and then the heating came on in the night.

2 week stay The tumble dryer did not work after our 4th day at the property.

We were offered another tumble dryer but that also did not work. An electrician was called & he let us know that there was a faulty switch where the tumble dryer was. After we reported that neither tumble dryer worked, the owners let us know that apparently the dishwasher & tumble dryer cannot be run at the same time. The electrics on this house need improvement. The washing machine is old & needs replacing. Does not spin effectively & therefore laundry comes out quite damp. There is no washing line at the property, so we had to dry our towels & clothes on small racks. The hoover/vacuum was not effective & smelled when it was used. We tried to clean it but could not find the cause of the smell when used.

Mention it’s a Superking in 1st bedroom, kingsize in 2nd bedroom.

Great to have an outside shower. Good to have parking for two cars. Mention Coffee machine needs small pods. Good to have 3 bathrooms. Lots of storage for clothes. Like the open plan living space. Main bathroom could do with an update. Mattress bit uncomfortable in 2nd bedroom. Like the outdoor courtyard, could it have a rotary clothes line maybe?
