“Drifters is a beautiful holiday home with stunning views in a central location but peaceful.”

There is everything one needs for a comfortable stay and the two sunny patios are delightful. We enjoyed a very happy week.

“Well cared for property in excellent location”

Thank you so much for your kind words. It's great to hear that you had such a fabulous stay and had the perfect base to explore the local area from. - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

“We really enjoyed staying in your beautiful home.”

Centrally located but very peaceful with a fabulous view. The house is fully equipped to a high standard. We were attending my niece's wedding on Porthilly farm so 'Drifters' couldn't have been more convenient.

“Very nice, comfortable house, great views and location.”

While otherwise well equipped and maintained, the utensils and kitchen equipment were poor quality eg microwave with a mechanical timer, plates from Wilko, Sainsburys, no coffee machine of any kind,oven that evidently did not work and / or lacked any instructions. Also noted the absence of a simple welcome pack (some tea, milk, biscuits etc ) which was the only time we found these lacking in many years of holiday lets. A short primted guide to the house and the owners requests would be more helpful than the many written notes taped to various walls through the house. These would not cost much to address and would be more in keeping with the rest of the house and its price point.

- Derek, August 2023

Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback from your stay. We are sorry you found the kitchen items not to be up standard, we shall share this with the owner for them to consider updating. We do hope that we get the opportunity to welcome you back to Cornwall in the future. John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. We have now put in a much simpler to use oven. The last one did seem rather confusing to use and the instructions had gone missing! - The owner. Property Owner

“Much improved facilities with new fridge/freezer.”

Dishwasher new but poor stacking arrangements and perhaps some of the bowls are not suitable.

- Richard, June 2023

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the new facilities and thank you for your suggestion, all feedback is shared with the owner - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. We have taken two unwanted stacking accessories out of the dishwasher which does make it easier to fill the machine and we will get some shallower cereal bowls. The owner. Property Owner

“We love this house.”

It’s our second stay and it provides all our requirements. Great location and the house is well maintained. The outside sitting areas and garden are delightful.

- William, May 2023

“I would have liked better instructions for the TV and appliances.”

“Thank you for your email.”

We had a family holiday at Drifters and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We particularly liked the open plan of the house and the lovely private back patio overlooking the garden. The house is very well positioned in Rock with easy access to restaurants and the ferry over to Padstow. We would definitely stay here again!

About the location

ROCK

Padstow 1.5 miles via ferry; Polzeath 2.8 miles; Wadebridge 6.2 miles.

Rock is a desirable and much sought after coastal village located on the north eastern bank of the River Camel opposite the famous harbour town of Padstow which is easily reached by a regular ferry service. The summer home of royalty and celebrities offering top class restaurants and quality shops, the real draw is the array of watersports including sailing, water skiing, windsurfing and angling. Continuing on a sporting theme, the golf course at nearby St Enodoc is considered to be one of the best in the country. With an abundance of world class beaches all within a short radius it is easy to see why Rock holds its popularity.
