Rock is an exceptional holiday destination that offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and exciting attractions. Situated on the stunning North Cornwall coast, this picturesque village is a paradise for beach lovers and water enthusiasts. With its pristine sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters, Rock provides an ideal setting for sunbathing, swimming, and a variety of water sports. You will find a bakery, delicatessen, and handy shop all within 1 mile of the cottage and the short, pretty walk through fields to the beach (1.5 miles) makes this the perfect spot to stay. Catch the passenger ferry to Padstow, with an array of gourmet restaurants and foodie experiences. History enthusiasts can explore the fascinating Tintagel Castle, situated just 14 miles from Rock, where the legend of King Arthur comes to life. Furthermore, the beautiful village of Port Isaac, famous for its appearance in the TV series Doc Martin, is within 8 miles.

As you enter the cottage, you will notice the thoughtful, tasteful decor inside, with style and comfort the clear objectives. First, step into the warm, sociable kitchen, where you can perch on one of the bar stools whilst your friends and family whip up a special meal or a reviving cup of coffee. A door leads from the kitchen to the contemporary bathroom with a rainfall shower over the bath. The other door from the kitchen leads down into the calm, peaceful lounge with local artwork adorning the walls and sumptuous sofas to cosy up on after a hard day exploring. In colder months, you can even light up the wood burner. Patio doors lead out from the lounge to the front of the cottage where you can sit and relax on a bistro table and chairs set and listen to the sound of nature all around you. Upstairs, you will find the master bedroom with a king-size bed with an en-suite WC, a large chest of drawers and bedside units. The second bedroom has a super-king bed that can be changed to two single beds if required ( please request at the time of booking) and comes with a wardrobe, chest of drawers and bedside units.

2, Penmayne Cottage is absolutely perfect. We were extremely comfortable in all aspects. It is very tastefully decorated with lovely art work and a soft colour palette. The garden was sheltered and a real sun trap. It was especially nice to have a cup of coffee listening to the bird song in the morning. Short distance to walk to the well stocked shRead moreop and a walk to to the other amenities in Rock and to the beach and ferry to Padstow. Hide

Beautiful cottage, great location in a peaceful lane but close to local shop, bakery, butcher and fish & chip shop. Lovely walk across the lanes and fields to the beach. Garden is perfect to relax in at the end of the day, the dog loved it as much as I did.
