Only minor thing I would propose, to avoid the potential for someone giving a less that 5* review, would be to upgrade the TV to a smart TV to allow guests to use their own Netflix/Prime TV/AppleTV accounts. Could easily get a 50inch Samsung Smart TV for less than £400. (Was no issue for us as the eather was fine)

Perfectly located in the heart of Rock with fantastic views over the Camel estuary towards Padstow, the house offers spacious, comfortable accommodation and is very well equipped too.

It would be helpful to have a hair dryer for guest use. I havenât packed one for some time as they seem to be supplied in most properties so was caught out by this.
