Beautiful house in Rock

The property is beautiful, a real homely feel. It had everything we needed for 12, spacious, modern, clean and all kitchen equipment needed.

Lovely decking area off the kitchen where we ate our breakfast in the sun taking in the stunning views.

Just across the road is s lovely little garden again with gorgeous views.

I would highly recommend this house.

Fabulous house and location

We had a wonderful stay over New Year in 1 The Terrace. Very impressed with the quality of the house, amazing space, we could happily fit out party of 8 adults and 8 children (under 6). Location is superb, few minutes to the beach with the most wonderful views. We will definitely be back.

WOW! The house is just perfect for friends or family to gather, young and old. Location is stunning, restaurants, fishing, beach, pubs, walks even now in the garden. Valerie is so helpful and quickly responds to enquiries attention to detail is great and I would not hesitate to recommend this to all my nearest and dearest. I hope we will one day return. Welcome treats from St Kitts and beers too on the table! Just Perfeck!!

Everything from dealing with the owner to staying at the house and its facilities and cleanliness is 5*. You will be hard pushed to stay anywhere as nice as this. Fingers crossed we will be lucky enough to stay again in the future!

Perfect

A first class property in a wonderful location. The house is immaculate and has everything you could need. Rock itself has shops, cafes and good pubs and restaurants. The beach and sandunes are 3-4 mins walk away.

Stunning, Spacious & Comfortable Holiday Home

We booked this property on a recommendation from a family member, we are so glad that we did as it is an absolutely amazing holiday stay.

Three main plus points:

1. The house itself is jaw-droopingly beautiful. Large open plan living spaces, numerous en suites and family bath, flat screen tv, water-side garden, balcony and every modern amenity. Not to mention impressive bedrooms with views to die for! The owners have thought of everything for you.

2. Location...the house is a short stroll from the ferry/water taxi to busy Padstow and near enough for access to Rock beaches and walks. Three very good restaurants within walking distance, and a short drive up the hill in to Rock further for boutique shops small supermarket and deli.

3. The owners...Valerie has been easily contactable and very accommodating of our every need, thank you so much.

We loved our stay here and would definitely recommend it.

A beautiful house in a stunning location.

We have recently returned from a fantastic week in this luxurious home. There were 12 in our party including 5 children aged between 12 months and 13 years. The house never felt too small and the facilities catered for all age groups. The views from the property are absolutely breathtaking and it's location can not be beaten. Valerie was always helpful and was on hand to answer any questions. We will definitely be back!

Stunning house, wonderful holiday

We returned this year, for the second time, to Valerie's beautiful house in Rock. Once again we were blown away by the amazing location and the stunning views. The house is very well equipped and comfortable. Thanks you for another great holiday. We'll be back again next year!

Wonderful property, wonderful location in Rock.

We have just returned from a week's stay in this superbly appointed property in Rock (our second stay in Rock but we have been coming to the area for many years). The property has been renovated to a high standard with care and attention to detail - convenient modern fixtures and fittings sitting alongside original features , combining to offer an outstanding holiday rental for large groups.

Oh, and did I mention the view that awaits from all floors? Not least the balcony situated on the top floor, offering panoramic views from the beautiful hillsides across the water to Padstow. Sit back, open a bottle and enjoy.

Rocksational

Just returned from a two family holiday staying in this quite exceptional property, it his hard to praise the location and accommodation too highly, everything we wanted and more. Quality property in an exceptional location, restaurants, golf course, bars and beach with ferry to Padstow on the doorstep.

Stunning location in Rock

We all absolutely loved this house, a family get together for half term and grandad's 75th birthday. The house is very well equipped with plenty of room for a party of 12, the views from the top balcony are stunning, perfect for a pre dinner drink overlooking the estuary towards Padstow. A bonus was the garden over the road, which initially we did not realise was part of the 'deal!' Valerie's recommendation for a venue for an adults night out at No 1 Rock restaurant, with pizza delivery for the young, was spot on. One evening there was live music at The Mariners, just up the road, which was very popular with the younger family members. A great house in a perfect location.

Beautiful home, stunning views, great location.

We would like to thank Valerie for a wonderful weekend in Rock. The house is beautiful with stunning views across the estuary. The rooms were large and well kept, there were plenty of bathrooms and the layout was perfect. The large kitchen was the hub for our family gathering and we easily found our way around.

We went for a beach walk in Rock on the Saturday and caught the ferry over to Padstow on Sunday, which is a short distance from the house.

I highly recommend this property to anyone looking to escape with a large group.

Stunning location

This is a beautiful house in a wonderful location. The sea view from the lounge is a real joy, lots of walks on the doorstep and a Jack Wills!!

14 of us stayed and it never felt too small. The owner is very helpful and available via email. Hope to stay again one day.

Great property in a perfect location

A beautifully renovated property in a perfect location with uninterrupted views across to Padstow. The property was very well spec'd and wanted for nothing. Communication with the owner was first class and I would highly recommend for a large family break.

Wonderful property - we loved it!

We stayed at this stunning house for a week in February. The house itself is beautiful. The layout is perfect for a large family, or families sharing, as there are many levels with room to have your own space and to come together to eat. The open plan living room/dining room/kitchen is absolutely gorgeous and airy, with access to an outside terrace, and stunning views over the estuary. The sleeping accommodation is really flexible with plenty of sleeper sofas and guest beds, if needed. All the bedrooms have their own bathroom/loo. The terrace room on the top floor is amazing and has the most wonderful views. It has a sitting area and a TV/DVD player, so was a firm favourite with the children. The bedrooms were lovely, with comfortable bedding, and the master room at the front of the house had views over the estuary.

There was enough parking for 3 cars in the front. The ferry to Padstow is about a 3 minute walk from the house. There is a pub two doors away and more bars/restaurants next to the ferry. The small deli, supermarket, and fish and chip shop is about 3 minutes by car, or walkable if you're feeling energetic.

The house owner is absolutely lovely and couldn't do enough for us. She was flexible with changeover day, made sure the heating was on for us prior to arrival, left us fabulous treats in the form of local cider and luxurious, complimentary bath products from a local company (St.Kitts Herbery - you'll be hooked once you try them!), and she kept in touch by email to ensure we had everything we needed.

The photos of the house don't do it full justice - it's even better than it looks. The general consensus of my family is that it's the best house we've stayed at in Cornwall. We all loved it and hope to stay again next year.
