Guests reported the property as grimy upon arrival, necessitating additional cleaning. This indicates a need for better upkeep between stays.
The property's location is consistently highlighted as great, contributing to the overall positive experience of the guests.
The comfort of the property is compromised by tired and old double beds and a need for new sofas, as mentioned by guests.
Facilities have room for improvement, with reports of broken appliances, overgrown garden, and the need for basic kitchenware additions.
There is no mention of gifts or extra touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the owners, hence the score cannot be determined.
About this property
Lowenna Manor 3 is a tasteful holiday home that guests will want to return to after a busy day at the beach. With three freshly presented bedrooms this property will comfortably sleep six people. Lowenna Manor 3 has use of its own private garden with parking at the rear of two cars, as well as use of a store for all your beach essentials. All the beautiful village amenities of Rock are within easy walking distance. Inside the bedrooms have the splendid use of a king size bed with en-suite shower room, a friendly double bedroom and a very spacious, airy twin room. The open plan living with dining area takes advantage of the French windows that lead you into the garden. The well planted, sweet shingle- style garden has pretty stepping stones to the wooden deck equipped with garden chairs, the perfect place to relax with a glass of bubbles or a coffee and a book. The patio features table and seating giving the family the ideal place for dining together outside. Perfectly positioned in the middle of Rock on the North Cornwall coast, Lowenna Manor 3 is just across the road from the delightful butcher, bakery and fish mongers. There is an exemplary deli and local newsagent also. If you fancy a stroll along the footpath the leads across the golf course to Brae Hill and Daymer Bay or Rock beach. Across some fields to Porthilly beach you can take advantage of the coastal views and serene stretch of sand at low tide.
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.

Unfortunately it clearly isn't being maintained to a good standard. The boiler was not working when we arrived, this would have been evident if an inventory had been complete before check in. The property was grimy and we had to clean it, the beds and sofas need replacing which guests commented on in previous years, several lights didn't work and the garden needs tidying along with the furniture. We had maintenance people in and out the property so it didn't feel like a holiday!

The main thing for us the garden was very overgrown needed a good tidy up. So spent time on the small fielded area. Would have been better with a grassed area like the other gardens. That said had a very enjoyable stay the house itself had everything we needed.

Just few basic things were lacking that wouldnât go amiss: Tea towels, bath mats (had to mop the bathrooms every time we had a shower) clothes pegs and lastly bed linen! Also some of the windows (ie. The main bathroom) need some TLC to make them easier to open. If it wasnât for this it would have been 5 stars.
