Tucked away at the end of a no-through Road, Kissing Gate is a pocket of tranquillity, positioned far enough from the hustle and bustle of Rock, but still within easy reach of all of Rock's amenities.
Here, you're just a leisurely stroll or short drive away from some of Cornwall's most beautiful beaches. Porthilly Cove is located around the corner from Rock Beach and is a hidden treasure well worth exploring. Rock Beach lies next to Daymer Bay, linking to it on the sand at low tide. Both beaches are fantastic for family beach days, with plenty of soft golden sand for picnics, barbecues and beach games, as well as dunes and rock pools to explore. The calm bathing waters provide a safe environment for a paddle or early morning swim.
If you want to explore the other side of the estuary, take the ferry from Rock to Padstow. Walk around the beautiful harbour and if you get peckish, enjoy some Rick Stein fish and chips. Just five minutes from Rock by car is the popular surfing beach at Polzeath, where lessons and board hire are available.
If you enjoy golf, you'll be in an ideal position. The popular St Enodoc Golf Club has two beautiful courses to choose from, both with stunning estuary views.
