About this property
Schoopers is set amongst rolling green fields on the edge of the Camel Estuary.
Schoopers is a rare coastal retreat, set amongst rolling green fields on the edge of the Camel Estuary, tucked away down a country lane at Gentle Jane, just five minutes from Rock. This secluded haven offers a true escape, with just one neighbour and direct access to your very own private shingle beach.
A bubbling stream winds through the large garden and woodland, leading you down to the shore. Here, your exclusive beach awaits; perfect for launching a kayak, fishing, skipping stones, or simply soaking in the tranquil beauty of the estuary. The setting is idyllic for picnics, wildlife spotting, or enjoying breathtaking sunsets over the water.
Inside, the property is a comfortable and inviting family home. The sitting room offers wonderful estuary views, best enjoyed from the balcony, the perfect spot to take in the ever-changing landscape. The kitchen also shares these spectacular vistas, so you can start your day with a leisurely breakfast while gazing out over the Cornish countryside and sea views. In cooler months, curl up by the wood-burning stove and watch the tides shift from the warmth of your cosy retreat.
The house sleeps six across three beautiful bedrooms. The master bedroom is spacious with a large en-suite, styled in soft blue and cream tones with elegant wooden furnishings. The second bedroom is traditionally decorated, offering stunning views stretching across the lush valley and down to the water. The third bedroom is a charming twin room, surrounded by greenery outside.
The gardens burst into life in spring and summer, with golden daffodils, vibrant wildflowers, and towering magnolia trees adding to the charm of this stunning setting. Along the way to the beach, you'll pass a historic 1920s Tradesman's Caravan—a picturesque feature of the landscape that serves as a unique backdrop for a picnic spot.
Beyond the property, some of Cornwall's most iconic destinations are within easy reach. The golden sands and renowned surf of Polzeath are just a short drive away, while the charming fishing villages of Port Isaac and Padstow offer fantastic seafood, scenic coastal walks, and a taste of Cornwall's rich maritime heritage. With breathtaking views, a hidden coastal location, and exclusive access to your own private beach, Schoopers is a true gem of the Cornish coastline; an unforgettable retreat for those seeking peace, beauty, and adventure by the water.

The home was comfortable and had plenty of space for our family. The location was more remote than expected and this should be emphasised more on website. We enjoyed the beach area of an evening but there wasn’t anywhere around the house to sit outside other than the roof terrace which was nice but would have liked a bbq area.
Some of the facilities were dated, we couldn’t use the oven as it just filled the house with smoke - kitchen needs updating. The master bed was really comfortable with a lovely bathroom. Shame the two single beds weren’t as comfortable.
There were lots of cobwebs which suggested the house hadn’t been cleaned as well as expected. Hamper on arrival was a nice touch.
All in all we had a lovely relaxing time at Schoopers it was just what the Doctor ordered following a family bereavement.
Thank you for sharing your family home.

Wonderful spot
Schoopers is in a wonderful spot, there were a few niggles, there was no BBQ, I bought one and left it there for others, and most holiday homes I have been to leave supplies, washing up liquid, etc etc, there was only enough for one night at Schoopers. It DID imply this in the details but I think it should be clear. It is not a problem, you just need to know so you bring your own, The dishwasher broke down after a few days, Cornwall Hideaways did respond quickly but could not fix it as it was a new machine so we were without. The visitors guide was confusing, it had not been updated for a long time, wrong rental company information, wrong telephone numbers and confusing instructions regarding bins!
The property itself is in a wonderful site, the long gardens down to the estuary were a children's paradise, and we had fantastic BBQs on the beach. At low water there was great sand banks to roam over, which again the children loved. It is safe to do so for 90 minutes before and after low water, then the water to the beach becomes deep very quickly with a fast current.
The beaches nearby were lovely and a Michelin star restaurant in Rock.
This may sound negative, I hope not, The best recommendation i can give....we have already booked Schoopers for next year
We loved our stay at Schoopers. The private beach and wooded area were a highlight for us. Lots of kayaking and a beach BBQ. The house was a little dated especially the kitchen. We loved the welcome hamper and White Company products - a very thoughtful touch. We will definitely come back! Thank you.

Character House in Beautiful, Secluded Location.
We had a wonderful week at Schoopers. It has a "Swallows and Amazons' feel with a secret path through the woods to the beach/estuary. Sailing, kayaking and bonfires on the beach add to the sense of outdoor adventure. Its secluded position means that all you hear are birdsong and the distant drone of speed boats pulling waterskiers on the estuary. The house itself has character and amazing views. Some areas are a bit dated but comfortable and it has everything you need including a useful hose/washing line to wash down and hang up wetsuits. It is a short drive to Polzeath for surfing/body boarding and a 20 minute walk to Rock Village (great baker and butcher) via the road or a lovely 25 minute walk along the beach to Rock Waterfront/pubs/restaurants when the tide is out.
