The Iles family stay
The property was amazing, the kitchen had every utensil you could need and plenty of glasses and mugs! The bathrooms and bedrooms were clean, the view was incredible and faced the sunset. Ample parking and it is literally a 2 min walk to the beach! It is a bit dated but we don’t like modern decor anyway and to us it added to its charm! The rooms are really spacious and communication with the owner was really quick, easy and very friendly. We’ve just left and already looking at booking again for next year!!

A perfect stay in the perfect location
We absolutely loved our stay at Rabbit Hill. We’ve been coming to Polzeath for many years and this house ticked all the boxes. The decor is definitely quirky but we loved that about it and the house was spotlessly clean & incredibly spacious. Also the views are beautiful and it is less than a minute’s walk to the beach. We’ll definitely be back.

Down time in Polzeath
As many times as I have been to Rabbit Hill it never fails to restore my mental health & wellbeing through its location, it’s vibe & its uniqueness. Thank you.

Memory rich holiday
Our family grew up visiting Polzeath every summer, so were keen that the next generation should discover it. Rabbit Hill was all we could have asked for - the three wings suited us exactly, the facilities were great & the way the owner looked after us was outstanding (not least as we had to defer the booking for a year because of Covid). We’ve come away with rich memories and the hope we may be able to return before too long

Great location
Interior design a little quirky! But amazing location, lovely garden, loads of space for our large family group and lots of toys to play with on the beach. Wonderful place if you are keen on surfing etc as you can check the waves from the garden. Property manger very helpful also. We had a great week!

Wonderful place to stay !!!
We were lucky to choose Rabbit Hill for our short break in October (half term). The house is magical. Big enough for five children, six adults and two dogs to have lots of fun throughout the day but still cosy during cold evenings by the fire. The view from the main room was absolutely spectacular. We enjoyed morning coffees looking at the ocean. The house was very well equipped for all our needs, big garden and huge garage only add to the whole experience. The house is located few minutes walk from the beach although it's very quiet. Ideally situated for exploring nearby towns and attractions. The owner couldn't be more helpful and accommodating. We would recommend Rabbit Hill for both long and short stay. Overall very enjoyable stay and we would definitely go back.

We love Rabbit Hill! It was perfect for us.
The best bits about Rabbit Hill is the very big communal living space, the terraced lawns and privacy. No road noise just the sound of the sea. We could decide when to surf by looking out of the window and then run down in bare feet. In fact we didn't wear shoes for the whole holiday. We walked across the beach when we needed the shops. It was a truly magical! We had one wet and windy day but inside is so spacious, we could watch the rain coming towards us across the sea but at the same time lounge by the fire at the heart of the house listening to music and reading. There are loads of amazing books! The house actually comfortably sleeps 12. We will be going again. As many times as we can!

About the host

Hosted by Will Waghorn

Host profile image
We have been so lucky to enjoy Rabbit Hill since our grandmother built the house in the 60's. Since the 80's we've been happy to share this hidden gem with a select number of families (some who've been coming for 30 years!)

Why they chose this property

This is a one of a kind bungalow with beach views just a 3 minute walk from the surf. It has a large two tier garden affording lots of private seclusion a stone's throw from the icon Polzeath beach. Ideal for families who want just park up and not have to drive all holiday.

What makes this property unique

Large secluded garden for al fresco lunches, garden parties and sunbathing. Vintage interiors alongside refurbished utilities and state of the art kitchen. 60's style with 21st century comfort.
