From the owner

Rocksalt is our lovely 4-bedroomed holiday home just outside Rock on the North Cornwall coast. Built and furnished to a high standard in 2008, the house is situated in a glorious setting with far-reaching views over the Cornish countryside, yet is only a few minutes drive from Rock which offers water skiing, sailing and paddle boarding, the surfing beach of Polzeath and child-friendly Daymer Bay.

The accommodation is light and airy and comprises 4 large bedrooms with 2 en-suites and 1 family bathroom; an open-plan luxury kitchen/lounge/dining area which is very well-equipped with large comfy sofas, a large flat-screen HD TV and all mod cons. There is a south-facing garden (which is fully secure as it is fenced at the front and back) with a weber charcoal bbq and an outside hot and cold surfers' shower. The patio offers a great place to drink your morning coffee from our Nespresso machine! There is also direct access from the garden into a large meadow where children can play.

NB We have just finished building a small one-bedroom extension on the side of RockSalt which will not be rented out. The only changes to RockSalt are that the garden will be fenced off down the right hand side - due to be done in spring 2024 when no guests are staying.

We now have superfast unlimited broadband. You can watch BBC iplayer, YouTube etc on the TV and Netflix if you have an account.

Not only is the house well-served for numerous beautiful beaches but nearby there are four excellent golf courses as well as an enormous range of other activities including surfing, water-skiing, coasteering, kayaking, cycling, sailing and tennis. Days out include the quaint fishing village of Port Isaac (location for the TV series Doc Martin); Padstow with its shopping and superb restaurants including Rick Stein's famous 'Seafood Restaurant' (the water ferry runs constantly from Rock to Padstow during the day); the scenic Camel cycle trail from Bodmin to Padstow via Wadebridge (ideal for all ages and easy to organise cycle hire) and slightly further afield, the world renowned Eden Project. This is a perfect location for families, surfers, golfers, foodies and walkers.

NB: THE RENTAL PRICE INCLUDES ALL BED LINEN (BEDS MADE UP FOR YOUR ARRIVAL), BATH TOWELS, HEATING, ELECTRICITY AND CLEANING AT THE END OF YOUR STAY

Further details indoors

Upstairs there is one large master bedroom with super king-size (6 foot) bed; one large twin-bedded room and one family bathroom with shower over the bath. Downstairs there is one double room with king-size (5 foot) bed with en-suite bathroom with shower over the bath and one twin-bedded room with en-suite shower room. White bed linen and towels are all provided for your convenience. This is the perfect house for one large or two smaller families.

Further details outdoors

There is a large, sunny, south-facing patio with bbq and table with bench seats. To the side of the house is a private hot and cold surfer's shower. There is also use of a field in front of the house - a wonderful place for children to play in full view of the garden and lounge.
