Area Map
Local Area
Rock
Outdoor pursuits
Running through Rock, the South West Coast Path is the perfect way to explore North Cornwall’s rugged coastline. Follow the path to Daymer Bay and enjoy breathtaking views from Brea Hill or continue onto Pentire Point and Polzeath if you’re feeling energetic. The scenic Camel Trail starts across the estuary in Padstow and is fantastic for family-friendly cycle rides. The renowned St Enodoc Golf Club is in the heart of Rock, and Trevose, Bowood and St Kew Golf Clubs are all within a 35 minute drive.
Activities for children
Other than the many gorgeous beaches nearby, there are plenty of alternatives for children to enjoy. The Camel Creek Adventure Park and Dairyland Farm World are perfect for the little ones to meet and feed the animals before running around in the indoor play area to let off some steam. Younger children will relish rainy days spent at the charming Macdonald’s Farm near Porthcothan. And for history enthusiasts, we’d recommend a day trip to the mythical Tintagel Castle, which is about 35 minutes away by car.
Beaches and watersports
The dog friendly Rock Beach runs alongside the Camel Estuary and has stunning views across Padstow. Just around the coastal path is the beautiful Daymer Bay and the popular surfing beach of Polzeath is also just a short drive away. Rock is a haven for sailing, stand up paddle boarding and kayaking, and adrenaline junkies will love coasteering with Cornish Rock Tors. Polzeath and Harlyn Bay have a range of fantastic surf schools for lessons and equipment hire, suitable for all abilities.
Food and drink
An unforgettable destination for foodies, Rock is home to Four Boys Cafe, The Pityme Inn and The Dining Room. Just down the road, The Mariners run by Paul Ainsworth is also highly recommended for a delicious bite to eat or laid back drink. Alternatively, hop on the water taxi to Padstow to sample the delights of Paul Ainsworth at Number 6, Caffè Rojano and the iconic Rick Stein’s. The Cornish Wine Tours experience also starts in Padstow, and there’s no better way to discover Cornwall’s award-winning vineyards or sample some fine wines.
Time for pampering
Just a short drive from Rock is the rustic-luxe Cowshed Spa at the St Moritz Hotel. The ultimate space to relax and unwind, opt for a quick beauty fix or an indulgent full or half day package. Put your feet up, enjoy a glass of champagne and let yourself be pampered. The St Enodoc Spa in the heart of Rock is a great alternative option for holiday down time, with a range of restorative treatments on offer. Let your skin reap the benefits of the natural and organic skincare range, before leaving feeling completely refreshed and renewed.
Festivals and events
Taking place at Roskear Farm near Wadebridge, the Rock Oyster Festival is one of North Cornwall’s most popular events. Usually held in July each year, it’s a wonderful celebration of artisan food, music and art. Just across the estuary, Padstow’s annual Christmas Festival is the perfect way to kick off the festive season. Held at the beginning of December, the popular fishing village comes alive with cooking demonstrations, local produce and a Santa fun run.

Driftwood is our most perfect house to rent in Rock! We have tried others but none compare. The attention to detail, and thoughtful touches, ensure it is a pleasure to spend time in this lovely house. Location is perfect and it works very well with our dogs. We will be booking again.
”We had a wonderful stay at Driftwood. The house worked perfectly for our party of four adults, a baby and two dogs. The house is immaculate and had so much space, it had everything we could need for a great holiday. There were lots of lovely touches to make our stay extra special. The welcome hamper was a real treat filled with lots of local produce, even the dogs had a hamper of treats! The addition of the extra living area upstairs was perfect for reading or watching TV. The bedrooms were all a good size and we found the beds very comfy. We had a call from Perfect Stays to check we were happy just after we arrived which was a great service and meant I could ask for recommendations for the area, which was a great help. Driftwood is in a great area in Rock, it's very quiet with an easy walk to local shops, restaurants and bars. I'd definitely recommend staying here, you won't be disappointed.
”We enjoyed our stay at Driftwood, which is a beautiful property. It is centrally located in Rock, and we could walk to the shops and down to the river easily.
The house was right next to the golf course which provided lovely walks too. It was nice to be able to explore that part of Cornwall and there are lots of great places to eat.
The Perfect Stays team were ALL extremely helpful and offered great advice and help, both before and during our stay. I would definitely consider booking with Perfect Stays again. Thank you for all your help.
”House was beautiful, perfect location and a great spot for a wonderful family break.
