A Cornwall village has been named among the "most desirable" to live in in the UK, according to The Telegraph.

The paper selected 54 locations from across Britain, in conjunction with research from Savills, that were deemed “most desirable” in terms of costs and the lifestyle they offer.

Among those featured was Rock, found in the northern part of Cornwall.

More than half of the estate agents working for Savills across the country reported a rise in demand in the most desirable countryside locations, with 57% saying they were unable to buy where they wanted.

Frances Clacy, analyst at Savills, told The Telegraph: “People want villages that have a bit of everything, from schools to stunning countryside, with accessibility to cities and transport infrastructure. Less well-trumpeted factors count too, such as the main road through the village should only lead to other villages.”

The full list of 54 villages on the list can be seen on The Telegraph page here.

Rock

The dining scene is a big part of Rock's appeal according to The Telegraph, with its "foodie reputation" and a whole host of eateries and tasting menus being selling points.

Fee's Food is recommended for "Cornish picnic fodder", whilst Karrek at the St Enodoc hotel is highlighted for its tasting menu.

Additionally, the fact this place was a spot where Prince William and Harry have holidayed gives it some extra favour.

Houses around the area are fairly scarce, and the average house price is £1,080,534.
