Had a lovely week in Rock the property is so close to the village. The garden is safe for the dog. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was well equiped with quality crockery. Lounge was very spacious and loved the sea theme the pictures don't do it justice. The only reason I haven't given 5 stars all round was the family bathroom needed updating and the en suite a lick of paint. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and exploring the surrounding areas.

Great location in Rock, easy access to Polzeath beach and works on Pothilly Beach.Cottage was great had what we needed. It has a single parking space in front of the property, we had a small car so was very easy to park. Larger vehicles might find it more difficult to get in and out onto the Rock Road.

Really lovely little house, close to pub/chippy/bakers and lots of other shops. A good walk to Rock but being half term it was fine to park. Lots of really good walks from the cottage. Very cosy, clean and well equipped.

Great Location on Rock Road

We really enjoyed our stay at Hollyhocks and the location was great for walking to the local shops, down to the beach, restaurants and St Enodoc Hotel. A nice spacious cottage with a south facing enclosed garden that was good for our 2 small dogs and sitting in the sunshine. Wendy was really helpful and additional cleaning supplies were available for our stay.

8 nights staying locally and enjoying body boarding. It was home away from home. Had everything we needed. We cooked every night and never worried that we might not have what we needed. Showers were so good - nice showers are a must after body boarding all day! And they were fabulous. House was cozy, clean and smelled wonderful. Comfortable beds and warm even without the heat on. No horrible drafts or smells. We loved every moment at Hollyhocks.

Ideal for us

A great place to stay

Lovely, fairly spacious house. There were five of us plus one dog (nice secure back garden). Friendly pub just a 2 minute walk & other handy local shops nearby, e.g. nice bakery. A great base for various places, e.g. Polzeath Beach, Padstow, Port Isaac etc. Lovely beaches. Great surfing. The owner (Wendy) was very quick to respond & helpful too. Thank you.

Cosy house, great location

Just back from a very relaxing stay in this cosy home. Lovely attention to detail, fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, sunny garden and excellent hosts. Ideal location for popping to shops, restaurants and pub. Beach is a walk downhill, so uphill on the way back, but well worth the effort! Very safe garden for dogs and kids, and well stocked garden shed with bikes, boards etc. Close to the road, but there is no noise at night, slept soundly! Can highly recommend a holiday here.

Cornwall Treat

The house is on a quite busy road, but once you’re inside it’s barely noticeable. There’s plenty of off road parking space which is a bonus. The house is nicely decorated in a calm seaside theme. It was warm when we arrived. The kitchen is well equipped. I’d definitely consider booking this again.

Lovely cottage

Had a lovely stay here in February - cottage cosy once wood burner up and going! Perfect enclosed garden for our little dog. Kitchen really well equipped with lots of little extras (dishwasher tablets, tea towels etc). A little out of Rock itself but out of season this was no problem as parking in Rock was fine. Boys loved Rock beach at low tide, so much space to let off steam.

Thank you so much for another 5 star review, Hollyhocks ticks all the boxes for a great family holiday. Rock beach is an amazing space for children, dogs and the young at heart, watch the ferry come and go, and you can even see dolphins at some times of the year. All seasons provide different lights, skies and sunsets. Any time of year it 'rocks'! Wendy

Superb

Lovely comfortable cottage with all the amenities you require. Great enclosed garden and superbly located to visit other areas. Short drive to Port Isaac and Rock with ferry over to Padstow which we did a few times. The Pityme Inn (a short walk) is great with lovely food and great staff. Tasting Rooms in Padstow also worth a visit. All in all a great last minute fund for us and we will definitely back for longer! Thank you x

Lovely cottage, very thoughtfully equipped and homely. Great to have use of bikes (if you wish), body boards and wet suits which save space in the car. Lovely area, lots of lovely places to walk, do watersports and sight-see. Loved The Mariners for a cheeky drink on a hot day and the boat trip over to Padstow for fish and chips is a must.

Great location for stunning strolls

Clean throughout and has everything you need in the kitchen. Bedrooms great size and nice showers. Good location to walk from, or short drive to most places. We loved our holiday stay. The beds were comfy but if your on the tall side, they were framed so you can't put your feet over the end. It was nice to have off road parking, but if you have anything wider than a fiesta you might find it tight. Nice to be close to the beach, but it is a hardy stroll there and back. Overall a great place to stay, would be happy to book again.

Our stay near Rock

Overall an enjoyable week spent at this house. The living room is very spacious and the garden was pleasant to sit in (apart from during the week when the builders were operating diggers and breakers). Found the kitchen very small and the fridge freezer was very undersized for a family with small kids. Irritating being in a cupboard so you had to open two doors to get in the fridge. As it's right on the main road into Rock it isn't a peaceful spot with the traffic going past but good location for day trips to Rock and Daymer Bay which we love .
