This was our 3rd stay in Alvaston and we absolutely love the location (Looe is a wonderful town) and the house layout for us, is perfect. The car parking space makes this such a convenient place to stay in Looe. Unfortunately, our most recent stay was marred by very poor cleaning and the evidence of at least one dog in the property prior to us arrRead moreiving. If the cleaning can be improved we would not hesitate to stay again Hide

A spacious and well equipped property that is well located on the edge of Looe. It's a bit rough around the edges though and the property could be cleaner.
