Lovely seaside stay in Kingsand

Great location above the rocks at the end of the Kingsand Beach with access to the beach. Main bedroom, living room and kitchen looking out to sea which was delightful Nicely decorated and good amenities. Would definitely recommend.

Peaceful, picture-perfect, pub lover’s paradise!

Not sure where to start this review because there are so many positives to go through. Arrangements with Nicky the owner went smoothly with lots of pre-arrival detail from essential “how-to-get-there” instructions (including helpful front door photograph) through to places to see and recommendations to eat and drink - and there are threefour excellent, welcoming pubs within easy walking distance. The property itself is clean, thoughtfully kitted out and has been beautifully restored into a spacious, comfortable beach side home with some of the best sea views in Cornwall - and we feel qualified to judge having seen many of those over the years of visits to this beautiful county. Take time to wander the streets of the pretty village of Kingsand and close neighbour Cawsand with easy access to interesting beach and spectacular coastal walks. I suspect your only disapppintment with Rock House will be when you find someone’s beaten you to the dates you want!

Fabulous House

We had a marvellous week in Rock House. The location was perfect - going to sleep to the sound of the waves crashing over the rock pools directly below. Very comfortable accommodation with all amenities provided. Would recommend it to anyone.

A Piece of Heaven

Rock House lived up to all our expectations and more. It couldn’t be situated in a more beautiful location with stunning views over the sea. Breakfast overlooking the ocean will be sorely missed as will the ‘secret door’ to the beach - our Narnia door as we called it! Couldn’t be more pleased with our week and just wish it had been longer! Our Canadian family absolutely loved it and the seaside villages of Kingsand and Cawsand are wonderful. Also the nearby Mount Edgcumbe Country Park is well worth a visit. Very well situated for trips further afield as well. Altogether Excellent

Beautiful home in a great location

Rock House is one of the most attractive and comfortable houses we have stayed in and definitely has the best views. The rooms are large, light and thoughtfully furnished. Even on grey days the house is light and the views outstanding. The house was equipped with everything we needed for 4 adults, a toddler and a 9 month old. The villages of Kingsand and Cawsand are a joy with friendly pubs serving very good food. The nearby beach was safe and great for a 2 year old to paddle in the sea. All communications with the owners were quick, helpful and friendly. They had also left detailed information about the area which was very useful. We will definitely return.

What a gem

What can I say, a beautiful property, situated in a charming village with stunning views. This was my second visit to Rock House and it did not disappoint. Location is fantastic with easy access to the village, the beach (through its own secret door) and the Mount Edgcumbe grounds. The property it’s self it homely, spacious and immaculately presented, with all the required necessities one would need to meet all your requirements during your stay.....And the view out the lounge/ kitchen & bedroom windows are to die for. The village itself it’s lovely, friendly locals. Great pubs! (Especially recommend the Devonport). An absolute gem.
