[1] The station is managed and served by Great Western Railway local trains.

The Cornwall Minerals Railway opened its line from Fowey to Newquay on 1 June 1874.

A passenger service was introduced on 20 June 1876 when the depot was renamed "Victoria", which gave its name to the modern hamlet on the site, and then changed to "Roche" on 1 May 1904.

The passing loop was extended on 3 July 1936 to accommodate the longer holiday trains then using the line.

The Victoria Inn at Roche is part of the Atlantic Coast Line rail ale trail.
