St Petroc dates from 1927, has been owned by our family for over 50 years and sleeps 8-12 (incl. two sofabeds). Its panoramic view over the Camel Estuary is one of the very best in the area.

When we took over the property from a relative in 2002, we instituted a programme of careful updating of the facilities, including a second bathroom and a TV room with DVD/freeview box & satellite connection facilities. Wireless broadband was added in 2006; in 2007 the living room was enhanced with new armchairs and sofas; in 2008 a large bookcase was added to the Living Room. However, please note that we deliberately keep the house in a shabby condition ('shabbychic' is an Italian expression!) and the facilities can at best be described as basic. So why do we get more repeat tenants at this property than at either of our other properties? Less is more, perhaps...?

St Petroc is reached by an un-metalled road from the main Rock-Polzeath road, and is close to all the local beaches, surf, water-sports, fishing, and golf.
