Trewillig Cottage

Trewillig Cottage is a four-bedroom cottage for eight near Rock, in the hamlet of Tredrizzick close to St Minver. Three bathrooms serve the four bedrooms, easing the usual morning bottleneck in a full house. An enclosed garden gives private outdoor space, and WiFi, parking, a dishwasher and a washing machine are all included. Dogs are welcome.

Rock itself sits on the Camel Estuary opposite Padstow, connected by a water taxi that runs every 20 minutes through the day, and the waterfront has several sailing and watersport schools alongside the Mariners pub. St Minver has a village pub and shop for everyday essentials. Changeover day is Tuesday, with check-in from 3pm and check-out by 10am. A cot and highchair are available for young children.

Daymer Bay is 1.7 miles away, Greenaway Beach is 1.9 miles and Polzeath Beach is 2 miles, giving a choice of three beaches within a short drive. The St Minver guide covers the wider area in more detail.

The practical advantages here are three bathrooms, laundry facilities and space for eight.

**Best for:** groups of up to eight wanting three bathrooms, an enclosed garden and parking within reach of Rock and the Camel Estuary.

**Less good for:** guests who want a beach immediately outside the door.
