    “Unfortunately we found Seastar uncomfortable and unclean.”

    There are a distinct lack of reviews available online. Not recommended. We thought it was expensive. No welcome pack was provided. There was a full, dirty Dyson Hoover on show in the utility. The cushions in the snug were in a mess from previous guests and had not been touched by the cleaner. The beds were all extremely uncomfortable and hard.

    There are a distinct lack of reviews available online. Not recommended. We thought it was expensive. No welcome pack was provided. There was a full, dirty Dyson Hoover on show in the utility. The cushions in the snug were in a mess from previous guests and had not been touched by the cleaner. The beds were all extremely uncomfortable and hard. Two members of the party had to vacate their rooms and sleep in the bottom double bunks which were only marginally better. Apparently the children’s top bunks are not allowed to be used but there is stained bedding on them. There was black dog hair in the lounge. There was also hair on the cereal bowls. We had to wash all crockery before using it. Only tiny amounts of toilet roll and soap were provided. The sofa seating in the lounge is not great for six adults unless you want to sit side by side like in a waiting room. We had to move the two seater sofa from the hall to the lounge to provide extra seating. The fridge was very smelly. No baby facilities at all. Smelly unrefreshed cushions and throws. There was no hand towel provided in the cloakroom, only the shower mat. The WiFi was rubbish and kept dropping out. Instructions were left for us to strip all bedding, we’ve never been asked to do this before in all the years we’ve been holidaying in self catering cottages. It was an early check out at 9.30 and the cleaner was still there when we arrived at 3pm, so we couldn’t check in until 4pm, which had been previously advised but we wondered what cleaning had been done in those 6.5 hours as it certainly didn’t appear much had been done apart from changing the towels and the bedding. Guests are not allowed to use most of the facilities in the garden and we didn’t sit out there at all. The house is very hot at times and it is difficult to regulate the temperature. Overall we were very disappointed, it’s expensive and wasn’t value for money. We were all glad to get home to our own comfortable beds.

The property

Seastar is a truly beautiful holiday haven on the north Cornwall coast.

With a spacious and stylish interior, you can experience relaxed coastal living that flows throughout and continues into the enclosed garden area with the added luxury of a Hot Tub (on request at an additional weekly charge).

Well situated within very easy walking distance of the Pityme pub/restaurant and just a moments drive from the glorious sandy beaches, golf courses and local amenities, Seastar provides a great base from which to explore the area.

This stunning self catering holiday home can cater for up to ten guests comfortably in four deluxe bedrooms and you can bring your loyal companion along with you by arrangement.

This amazing newly-built house is found at the beginning of the Rock Road, leading you down towards the waterfront shops, restaurant and beach activities.

The contemporary living spaces flow throughout the ground floor combining wooden floors, fresh white walls and calming pastel tones to create that perfect holiday ambience.

The modern kitchen and dining area is a great space to meet your culinary needs with a grande centre island and comfortable bar seating for your morning coffee.

Slide back the full-length bifold doors creating that light and airy feel and extend the open plan space out onto the patio and garden for some alfresco dining.

Seastar provides two living options with a separate snug TV room filled with board games and books and a living area with plush, comfortable sofas, a Smart TV and wood burner, perfect for those coolers evenings and a place to unwind after a day on the beach.

The first floor hosts four beautiful bedrooms, each bedroom with soft, calm interiors and luxurious beds prepped ready for your holiday; an elegant master bedroom with a superking four poster bed and a shower ensuite; a double ensuite bedroom; a further double bedroom and tailored, double bunk room that share a family bathroom. Head out for a stroll through Rock, with its many shops, restaurants and pubs that lead straight to the Camel Estuary and seaside adventures.

Scenic coastal walks are all around with each new route promising better views, so definitely pack your walking boots.

For sailing, power boating and water-skiing head to the Rock Sailing Club or the Camel Sailing and Powerboat Centre.

At Rock you can also catch the ferry across to Padstow to explore this vibrant harbour town and its many fine restaurants including Rick Steins and Paul Ainsworth.

In the evenings catch the water taxi home against a backdrop of twinkling lights.

Golf enthusiasts can enjoy The St Enodoc Golf Club or The Point at Polzeath Golf Club, both within walking distance from Seastar.

For some pampering head to the spa at St Enodoc Hotel or The Point at Polzeath for some me-time.

Surfers and paddle boarders will prefer Polzeath beach further around the headland where Atlantic swells produce some of Britain's best waves.

Just 10 minutes up the road is the picturesque village of Port Isaac, home to the Doc Martin TV series, the Fisherman's Friends and a working harbour.

Take time out to eat a bag of fish and chips on the harbour wall as the sun sinks below the horizon - you won't regret it!

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.
