Upper Deck

Upper Deck is a top-floor three-bedroom apartment in Rock on the Camel Estuary, sleeping six across two bathrooms. Two balconies face west over the estuary, with views across to Padstow on the opposite bank - the sandbar, the moored dinghies, and the water visible from the living room and both outdoor spaces.

The apartment has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a dishwasher, washing machine, WiFi, and parking. The layout suits two couples or a family of six, and the Friday changeover gives a full weekend if travelling mid-week. The balconies have an estuary outlook. Greenaway Beach is 1.6 miles away, and with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, six guests have room to spread out.

Rock's beach is directly below - sheltered, shallow, and used by the Rock Sailing and Waterski Club throughout the season. The Padstow water taxi runs every 20 minutes from the slipway, reaching the town's harbour and restaurants without a car. Daymer Bay is 1.1 miles south along the coast path, a dune-backed beach with calmer water than Polzeath. Polzeath itself is 2.2 miles north - Cornwall's most accessible beginner surf break.

Best for couples or families who want the estuary views and easy access to both Rock and Padstow. Less suited to guests with dogs - the apartment is not dog-friendly.
