The top floor has the delightful benefit of a balcony from where you have a bird’s eye view of the fascinating on-goings along the river. The property is laid out on four floors with an extremely useful storage/utility room in the basement. Upstairs on the first floor are four bedrooms, the first has twin beds which can be put together to create a super-king-size and an en-suite, whilst the second also has the twin/super-king option with an adjacent bathroom. Then there are two more rooms, one with twin beds, and another with one single; up onto the top floor is another bedroom with the twin/super-king option, and a further bedroom with two single beds and another bathroom. Perfectly suited for large and extended families, The Terrace 4 offers plenty of room for all! This wonderful house is located right in the middle of the nautical hub of Rock; walking from the doorstep can lead you to the Rock Sailing Club, St Enodoc Golf Course, or the Camel Ski School. Delicious menus await you at the many local pubs and restaurants, while those seeking retail therapy can find lovely shopping only a stone’s throw away. Teenagers can saunter down to the pontoon and sign up for an exciting banana boat ride while others can relax on the terrace and watch their antics with an indulgent cream tea. Retreat to sunny Cornwall at The Terrace 4.
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.

All beds are old and worn out. Sinking into the mattresses. No table on the roof terrace. We made it work for us but donât think we will be coming back to this property. Location is great.

Missed that. The local office dealt with a problem about a radiator very quickly and efficiently. All out dealings with the local staff have been excellent. Lovely new kitchen and very well equipped. Adequate number of towels but bath towels too small. When we stayed here 8 years ago for Xmas the tree was already up which was lovely. This time there was nothing to indicate Xmas until we found the tree in the cellar and put it up. The house information could have included local churches. We also needed to know what to do with bottles. For many years it has been in at 3 and out at 10. Changed understandably immediately after Covid but should now go back. For 12 people to be out by 9.30 means a very early start. Trying to contact the local office meant going through Sykes head office which was annoying and didnât always work. We have always found John Bray very good but not impressed with being part of Sykes.
