Slipway 19

Slipway 19 is a four-bedroom terraced house on Rock Road, sleeping 8 across 4 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms. The ground floor has a king bedroom and a super king with its own en-suite bathroom, while the open-plan living area is on the first floor. Two balconies with furniture give outdoor space and catch the estuary air. Fuel, power, and bed linen are included in the hire price.

Rock and Padstow sit either side of the Camel Estuary. The seasonal water taxi between the two runs a short walk from the property, making Padstow's harbour and restaurants easy to reach without a car. Daymer Bay Beach is 1.2 miles from the front door - a sheltered sandy arc popular with families and paddlers. Greenaway Beach is 1.6 miles and Polzeath, the area's main surf spot, is 2.2 miles. The Camel Trail, a car-free cycling path following the old rail line, starts in Padstow and runs 18 miles to Bodmin.

The village of Rock has a sailing club, a handful of restaurants, and the Rock Bakery for morning supplies. A carport has parking for two cars. Wi-Fi and a dishwasher are provided. No pets. Thursday changeover.

Suits families with children who want beach access without driving each day, or groups that want two bedrooms on the ground floor. Guests who need step-free access should check with the owner before booking.
