Kernow House

Kernow House is a country house on the edge of Rock sleeping up to eleven guests across six bedrooms: one super king, two king, and two twins (one with trundle on request). Five bathrooms serve the group, and the historic fabric of the building - original pantry, mill features, layered living rooms - gives the property character beyond standard rental stock. It has a 5-star rating across 5 reviews, suggesting an outfit that takes property presentation seriously.

The kitchen is anchored by a six-oven Range cooker, making large-group catering practical rather than a logistical challenge. A seven-seat hot tub and wood burner handle evening entertainment when beach days wind down, and the expansive garden gives dogs and children room to move. Private parking for five cars and an EV charging point are both listed, making it one of the few rural North Cornwall properties with dedicated EV infrastructure.

Daymer Bay Beach lies 2.6km from the property - a tidal estuary beach known for calm swimming conditions and windsurfing, popular with families. Greenaway Beach adds a second option 2.9km away, and Polzeath Beach 3.1km north offers consistent surf breaks used by local surf schools. The Camel Estuary ferry to Padstow runs from Rock village, adding restaurant options without a road trip.

Best for large families or groups wanting a characterful rural base with strong amenities and multiple beach options within 3km. Suits those with electric vehicles. Less good for those expecting a sea view from the house or walking distance to town - the position requires a car for most activities beyond the immediate garden.
