“We’ve just returned from a wonderful week spent in Debbe and Jim’s amazing house. The house is perched half-way up a cliff on the edge of the town of Looe. The access is quite steep and narrow, but once you’re there, you are rewarded with the most astonishing views over the town itself, its harbour and the sea. The large windows mean that this view can be seen from virtually every room. The house is excellently equipped, and very comfortable, with lots of large sofas and a splendid table that seats eight people, not to mention the outside seating area – all with that amazing view! An added bonus for us (since we were accompanied by small children) was that the delightful sandy beach was directly accessible down a staircase starting just below the house, and many a happy hour has been spent digging sandcastles, exploring the rock pools or just watching the tide come in and out. The town centre of Looe is within a short walk and has everything that you could want including “the world’s best Cornish pasty” shop. The Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan are within a short drive, as is Antony, an 18c National Trust property, Restormel Castle and the Prince of Wales’s garden centre , which does an excellent cream tea. All in all, the perfect place for a real Cornish holiday. Our own house was immaculate on our return, so many, many thanks to Debbe and Jim for a great exchange.”
