Carn Du 1

Carn Du 1 is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Rock, north Cornwall, sleeping 8 guests across all-ground-floor accommodation. The property has been recently refurbished with new furnishings throughout and has a south-facing garden - a strong draw for families needing accessible, single-level living.

All four bedrooms are on the ground floor: a king-size double with en-suite bathroom (bath, basin, WC), a twin with en-suite shower (convertible to super-king on request), a super-king double (convertible to twin), and a standard twin. A separate bathroom, shower room, and utility complete the layout. The open-plan living area combines kitchen, dining, and sitting space, equipped with a Nespresso machine, dishwasher, and TV.

The south-facing lawned garden has a patio with furniture and barbecue. Private parking is provided. A pub is 0.2 miles away, and a fuel station and shop are within 0.8 miles.

Daymer Bay Beach - a sheltered estuary beach with calm, shallow water at the mouth of the Camel - is 1.2 miles south. Greenaway Beach, a quieter cove with rock pools and snorkelling, is 1.6 miles away. Rock itself sits on the east bank of the Camel Estuary opposite Padstow, connected by a water taxi that runs every 20 minutes. The Camel Trail cycle path can be picked up at Wadebridge, 4 miles south.

Best for multi-generational families who need single-level, step-free living, with a pub 0.2 miles away. Less good for a couple wanting something intimate - four bedrooms and three bathrooms are built for a full group of eight.
