1 Lowenna Manor

Four-bedroom cottage set within the grounds of a converted manor house in Rock, rated 4/5 from 5 reviews on HolidayCottages. The bedrooms span three configurations: a super-king with en-suite and separate shower, a bunk room suited to children or teenagers, a twin, and a king-size with a skylight en-suite. All eight guests have access to 4 bathrooms in total - a practical ratio for a group of this size. Outside, a patio and lawn connect to a shared garden with a boules court, providing outdoor space for the group without leaving the grounds.

Daymer Bay Beach, a sheltered National Trust strand at the mouth of the Camel Estuary, is 2.1km away. Greenaway Beach is 2.7km, and Polzeath - the surf beach with hire boards and lessons - is 3.4km. The foot ferry to Padstow operates from around 2km distant, connecting to the town's restaurants, independent shops and the start of the Camel Trail cycle route to Bodmin. Rock itself has a sailing school and water sports hire operating on the estuary. The BBQ and private parking for two cars are included. Up to 2 dogs are welcome.

This property suits larger families or two couples travelling together who need distinct sleeping areas and multiple bathrooms. Ideal for those combining beach days at Daymer Bay with water sports on the Camel Estuary or cycle trips on the Camel Trail. Less good for anyone wanting to walk to a town centre - Rock is a small village, and Padstow requires either the passenger ferry or a short drive.
