Guests that stayed at this property said
The property generally maintains a good level of cleanliness, with nice bed linen and mostly clean spaces. However, some guests noted areas that require attention, such as dust, cobwebs, and a need for a deeper clean.
The location is highly praised for its convenience to shops, pubs, the beach, and coastal walks. The easy access to parking and the ferry to Padstow are also appreciated, making it an ideal base for exploring the area.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the house warm, contributing to a pleasant stay. However, some guests mentioned that the garden furniture was not comfortable and that the living space might feel limited for larger groups.
The house is well-equipped but has several areas that need improvement. Guests reported issues with kitchenware, garden furniture, and maintenance concerns like a damp patch and bathroom fixtures needing repair. The lack of a BBQ and an outside tap were also noted.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the property owners. Therefore, it is not possible to assess this category based on the reviews provided.
About this property
Lowenna Manor 4 occupies a prime position in the centre of Rock village, on the North Cornwall coast, with great amenities and beach all within walking distance. This stylishly-furnished, three-storey property has a terrace and a secure, private garden with space for any sporting equipment, surfboards and wetsuits, making it a wonderful base for a family trip to the shore. The first floor of Lowenna Manor 4 benefits from a king-size bedroom, with doors leading out to a lovely balcony, allowing the outside in. There is a bathroom and a single bedroom across the landing, ideal for a young child, whilst the second-floor bedroom with en-suite bathroom is accessed from an open staircase, more suited to older children, grandparents, or friends. Downstairs the ground-floor is open-plan, and the lounge/diner has a wonderful light, bright feel with French windows onto the garden. A useful terrace with garden furniture is the perfect setting for family meals on balmy days, before following the wonderful walking trails from the property, along the footpaths of St Enodoc golf course and onto Rock Beach or Daymer Bay. There are plenty of local shops for groceries along the Rock Road, including a baker, butcher, deli, and a fishmonger. Guests can also pop down to the nearby Porthilly Farm to buy oysters and mussels freshly harvested from the Camel estuary. An extremely convenient restaurant lies almost opposite Lowenna Manor 4, and many more options for eating out can be found a little further down the Rock Road. With so many watersports on offer, from sailing to surfing, windsurfing, and waterskiing, it would be hard for anyone to get bored in Rock and nearby Polzeath. If you do fancy a change of scenery though, families can spend a day on the other side of the estuary by taking the little ferry over to the vibrant harbour side of Padstow; the town has plenty of opportunities for shoppers, gourmets, and children, while thrill seekers can take advantage of a speedboat ride or a more leisurely cruise aboard the Jubilee Queen. Make memories as a family from Lowenna Manor 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.

Living space and garden wise I am not sure that I would want to be a party of 6 staying there. The garden furniture only has 2 seats. There is no outside tap, which for a house that offers the ability for pets seems like a big miss. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed my stay

The bath tap moves and the shower requires sealing around the edges. On arrival there was a car parked in the allocated bay outside the house, we called number given and left a message for advice on but no one returned our call.

It needs a decent clean, new garden furniture, new carpet, a lick of paint, windows that open and a TV that works.
