Nestled in the village of Rock, this home is an ideal choice for a coastal family getaway. Inside, the traditional style may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s well-equipped and has everything you’d expect in a home-away-from-home. The outdoor space is a treat, with plenty of room for younger family members to burn off a little energy while the grown-ups light the pizza oven to prepare an alfresco feast. And with the tranquil waters of Rock beach just a short distance away, there’s plenty of fun to be had for families and water sports enthusiasts alike.

Home truths
While not all bathrooms are photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
We recommend a car to get the most out of your stay. There's parking for four cars here, along with an EV charger.

The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.
All four bedrooms and bathrooms are on the ground floor of this home.

About Padstow
Padstow’s popularity has sky-rocketed in recent years. During the summer holidays, the town’s colourful streets are packed with holiday-makers window-shopping, gathering around the boat-filled harbour, and enjoying seafood in its famous restaurants. The town has a communal feel in the warmer months, as restaurant and café tables spill out onto the harbour walls.
