At Kernow House, you can fully immerse yourself in the Cornish lifestyle whilst avoiding the hustle and bustle of central Rock and Polzeath. Kernow House is equidistant from both, so you can come and go with ease and make the most of your time on the North Cornish coast.

Head into Rock for family beach days, a multitude of watersports and lazy afternoons taking in the view whilst sipping local tipples. Enjoy a round of golf at the St Enodoc Golf Course where you can pay and play. Hop on the ferry across the estuary to Padstow where you can explore the shops and cafés that line the pretty harbour. In the other direction, discover Polzeath with its fantastic surf conditions, golden sandy beach and vibrant restaurants and bars.

At Kernow House you are within walking distance from the village pub. In just five minutes, you can reach the Pityme Inn, a pretty pub decorated with colourful blooms and offering a Sunday carvery, popular with locals. In the other direction, The Wild Hop is just a ten to fifteen-minute walk away and is nestled within the cricket grounds in the village of St Minver. St Minver is also home to St Menefreda's Church, boasting a magnificently tall and slightly crooked spire.

Hop in the car and in ten-minutes you will be in the beautiful market town of Wadebridge. Here you can do a spot of holiday shopping, hire bikes and cycle the Camel Trail or catch a film in the cinema there. The fishing village of Port Isaac also makes for a fantastic day out and is just a fifteen-minute drive away. Here you can spot filming locations made famous by Doc Martin and the Fisherman's Friends movie and sample the best in local seafood at Nathan Outlaw's Fish Kitchen.

Walk to the beach

Rock and Polzeath Beach are just minutes away by car, but if you enjoy scenic walks then both can be reached in thirty to forty-minutes. For Polzeath Beach, simply head down the driveway to the corner of the lane and take the public footpath to the left. This will take you through some farmland and along to the golf course at The Point where you will follow the stream through the valley to central Polzeath. For Rock Beach, head right up to the main road that takes you through Rock and straight down to the beach.

It was such a pleasure and a privilege to stay in such a beautiful house that is clearly very well loved by the owners. It was the perfect size to accommodate my large family, the style - so beautiful, yet lived in, with wonderful personal details everywhere made, gorgeously luxurious.

The Tudor family

Family dining under the Kiwi Vine was such a magical, autumnal experience! Conveniently located close to amenities and brilliant eateries, we sampled local delicacies with lots of food and wine! Only a short walk from Rock, we spent our days in the October sunshine, strolling the coast and swimming in the sea. After a year of Lockdown, estranged from family, it was the perfect get together!

The Richardson family

We loved that there were so many beautiful and peaceful spots to hide away or hang out, from the beautiful bedrooms to the dream kitchen, the sitting room (great late night Olympics viewing), the hot tub, sunny patio, and the endless sunny garden. Badminton and table tennis was a great hit also!

The Tudor family

Kernow House was the perfect setting for a special family getaway. A beautiful space with plenty of room for a multi-generational family; The Master suite welcomed a 60th birthday in style, the Sports Bar and Hot Tub entertained the young adults, and the children explored the mature gardens.

The Richardson family

Beautiful large house with a lovely garden. Very stylish and great location.
