Valley View Lodge

Valley View Lodge is a single-storey lodge for four near St Minver, a village about a mile inland from Rock on the Camel Estuary.

One king-size bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, while a twin uses the second bathroom, giving the shared spaces an alternative to the king room's en-suite. The open-plan living area leads to a large private deck. The lounge has two sofas and a Smart TV, the kitchen has a breakfast bar, and French doors open onto the deck. The second bathroom is a family shower room, and there is a utility area. Shared facilities include a games room and a heated indoor pool, available from April through the end of October. Wi-Fi, a dishwasher, EV charging and parking for two cars are included. Dogs are not accepted.

Daymer Bay Beach is 3.0 miles away, Greenaway Beach is 3.4 miles away and Polzeath Beach is 3.5 miles from the lodge. Wadebridge, about 3 miles south of St Minver, is where the Camel Trail begins, and Padstow can be reached using the Rock water taxi rather than driving around the estuary. The St Minver guide covers the parish, which also takes in Rock, Polzeath and Trebetherick.

**Best for:** a small family wanting two bathrooms, a seasonal pool and EV charging near Rock. **Less good for:** guests requiring step-free access.
