There is nothing at all that could be improved about this holiday destination. Not only was the home BEAUTIFUL, it was very clean and stocked to the brim with all the things you need. The location is perfect for exploring Cornwall, as well as the local area just a walk from the house. Suzy was such a thoughtful host and made us so welcome with so many personalised and caring touches in the property. She made my daughter and I feel so special when our birthdays came and even provided cakes and a present for my 7 year old. We would go back to Louvain in a heartbeat
