Nestled in the cliffs of North Cornwall, Rockaway epitomises the stunning properties available for rent in the UK’s favourite county.
CORNWALL is a place of wild beauty and geographical extremes. With miles of coastline, its unique beach scene has captured the hearts and minds of countless adventurers and romantics and draws millions to sample its beach lifestyle every year. Unrivalled panoramic views, secret coves and silky beaches, this is a wanderers’ paradise.
Hand-picking the very crème de la crème of Cornwall’s holiday cottages is an exciting job, and one such property that epitomises Cornwall’s beach life perfectly is Rockaway, near Portreath, on Cornwall’s north coast. Coupled with its twin, Rock, these two holiday properties take pride of place nestled into the cliffs overlooking Portreath and manage to capture all that makes Cornwall, well, Cornwall.
