Good Startpoint for Bicycletours in Cornwall nice house and nice family

You could go everywhere in the Southwest of Cornwall. We had taken our bicycles with us. Therefore it was easy to go to St. Ives or Penzance or Lands End. There are many little roads for that it was not difficult. To go by foot seems to be more difficult, because ist is to far away. it is a very nice couple, who lead Chypons farm. They help everywhere.
