We have been staying at Rosken Farm since 1992 as we like the location, accommodation and welcome from the owners, David and Dorothy previously and now Paul and Caroline. We also like the fact that there are plenty of dog-friendly beaches in the area.

Excellent pad for us and the dog - convenient location for the dog-friendly beaches of North Cornwall! Treyarnon, Constantine Bay, Booby's Bay etc all within a few minutes, with some great facilities, really clean beaches and cheap parking. Heating plentiful and included, as it did get a bit cooler in the evening, but that's what happens in OctobRead moreer. Would go again Hide
