“We are very familiar with Rock and the Gull Rock development.”

The house is truly amazing with every modern feature and comfort in a very central "walking distance" Rock location. We would highly recommend it.

“A beautiful spacious property, well situated within Rock.”

Althought the house is very well equipped with good quality items it did leave quite a bit to be desired. There were a number of maintenance issues for example, one of the ovens had a broken seal and leaked heat and condensation, many light bulbs within the property were out, a leak in the windows above the door in the hall caused an ingress of water which puddled on the floor during rain showers and the insinkerator would not work. There was no key or code for the boot room door meaning anyone returning from the beach had to access the property through either the front or rear door. Whilst the property was reasonably clean, the tiled floor in the ensuite was very grubby and the toilet leaked a little at the base. The master bedroom had a very comfortable bed with a sumptuous mattress topper and decent white cotton sheets. Unfortunately bodily fluid stains on the topper could be clearly seen through the bottom sheet. There were areas of the property that did not appear to have been thorougly cleaned in a while for example there were large accumulations of dust, dander and debris trapped in and around the glass balustrade. Our daughter found silver fish in her room, possibly as a result of damp wood of which the house has a lot. We were surprised at the lack of cleaning materials available for example a suitably safe cleaner for the granite work tops and no dust pan to use with the brush when sweeping sand from the utility areas. Only one black bin bag for general waste was provided and no suitable recycling bags were available. With a property of this size and cost we expect simple cleaning products and bin bags to be provided. Only one key is provided at the property and the external doors automatically lock when they are closed. This caused great paranoia everytime we left the house. This property has the potential to be amazing but a general lack of care and maintenance is taking the edge off it at the moment. I am guessing it is being looked after by a maintenance company and the owner needs to be aware that the standards are not great. We did not report the maintenance issues during our stay as we did not wish to have the inconvenience of workmen in the house.

“We had the most wonderful stay in Gull Rock 4 with our children and their partners.”

We have been holidaying in Rock for 30 years and admired the Gull Rock Development when it was built 20 years ago. It had always been a dream of ours to stay in one of the properties and finally that has come true. The property is beautiful, so calm and relaxing. Very well equipped for cooking and entertaining at the house. Everything you could possibly need was provided. Super comfy beds, great social space, lovely secure garden. Would highly recommend this property.

“A really lovely house with fabulous views.”

I was also impressed that the kitchen is really well equipped for people who want to cook. I would love to go back next year!

“The wi fi code in the Sykes e-mail is wrong and also in the house document.”

After a long time of searching this was found in a small piece of paper out of sight in a corner of the kitchen. We had to leave a day early as the high wind rattled the roof making sleep difficult. There are 3 keys , not one. It's difficult to open the key box . After repeated attempts we had to ask a neighbouring workman to help and when successful he said he had no idea how he did this ! There is no info on how the house works, such as the lighting and heating etc. Asking guests to vacate by 09.30 is far too early bearing in mind the next guests are not permitted to arrive 6 and a half hours later. Altogether rather disappointing,

- John, December 2023

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that the points above had a negative impact on your holiday, thank you for highlighting these issues to us. Our guest's happiness is very important to us, we have amended the Wi-Fi code in the property and updated our records for future reference, and the maintenance issues stated above have been rectified for future guests. We hope to welcome you back in the future - John Bray Cornish Holidays on behalf of the owner. Property Owner

The property

Perched in the popular village of Rock in Cornwall, is this superb four-bedroom, detached house, Gull Rock 4.

Enjoying wonderful surroundings just paces away from the River Camel and local amenities, with exceptional views out towards Padstow, Gull Rock 4 is a fantastic dwelling for a group or family of eight embarking on their next adventure to Cornwall.

Leave your vehicle in one of two off-road parking spaces, before making your way into your new home from home.

On the ground floor you will find three well-appointed bedrooms, three king-size, two of which are zip/link, served by a gleaming bathroom for freshening up at the end of an adventure-filled day.

The little ones can be entertained in the ground-floor TV/playroom with plenty of toys and board games kindly provided!

There is also a handy cloakroom and utility on this floor for your convenience.

Climb the stairs up to the first floor, where you will find the fourth and final bedroom, a beautiful super-king-size with en-suite shower room and breath-taking views of the estuary and sea, what a view to wake-up to! Continue through to the spacious open-plan living area, where you can look forward to impressing your guests with mouth-watering meals, cooked up in the well-equipped kitchen which features a handy dishwasher, ready to enjoy at the dining table for eight whilst enjoying idyllic sea and garden views.

If the weather is nice, why not dine out in the rear enclosed garden whilst you soak up the Cornish sunshine? After dinner, snuggle up in front of the TV with a DVD player and select the evening’s entertainment, or head up to the second-floor mezzanine study area, where you can curl up with a good book.

Explore your local surroundings, where right on your doorstep, you will find the welcoming pub of The Mariners Public House, offering a tasty menu and local ales.

Within the village you will also find the renowned St Enodoc Golf Club for those wanting to test out their clubs with a view, ample watersports opportunities on the River Camel, including sailing and water skiing, and a beautiful beach where you can bathe, paddle the shores or tuck-in to fresh fish and chips.

Catch a ferry over to Padstow, where you can adopt a hatchling at the National Lobster Hatchery, tour the esteemed Prideaux Place or hire a bike to take in the sights along the scenic 18-mile Camel Trail.

Padstow also has a great selection of restaurants including, The Greens of Padstow and The Seafood, along with the Padstow Brewing Company where you can indulge in well-deserved drinks.

Keen walkers will delight at the close proximity of the South West Coast Path, where you can expect some of the best sights and scenery in the area.

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.
