Rock sits along the B3314 in the heart of Cornwall. As an upmarket estuary village across the water from Padstow, it attracts both visitors and through traffic heading to Polzeath and Wadebridge. Rock Beach and Camel Estuary are the main draws. Rock's reputation as 'Chelsea-on-Sea' means expensive vehicles on narrow lanes — careful recovery is essential to avoid costly bodywork damage. We've been recovering vehicles from these roads for years.
