Property code: OC-MIZZEN

Elevate your holiday experience with a stay at this fabulous two-bedroom property on the East Looe hillside. With panoramic views, a pair of sitting rooms, plenty of outdoor space and parking, it’s perfect for two couples or a group of pals.

Enjoy far-reaching views of the town and its bustling harbour from this detached house – set into a hill beside the original roadway into Looe, it’s ideally located for a laid-back break with friends or family. Prepare to be impressed as you step into the living room, where the huge window gives a bird’s eye view of the harbour; there’s access to a raised balcony, as well as all the comforts of home for restful nights in. Incredibly light and airy, the open-plan kitchen/diner offers more fabulous views plus all the self-catering essentials. Sharing the ground-floor layout is a king-sized bedroom with its own TV and a bathroom with, for added convenience, both a bath and a separate shower. On the lower ground floor there’s a second ‘snug’ sitting room with garden access, plus a bedroom with a TV and zip-and-link beds that can be made up either as twins or a super-king-size bed. Sleep here and you can wake up to harbour views! Step onto the balcony for dinner al fresco – there’s furniture for four and a charcoal BBQ. The patio to the rear of the property provides an alternative breath of fresh air; backed by mature garden it’s a lovely private area and has its own furniture.

If you like walking, you’ll love this property – the hill it’s located on is steep and narrow in places, so the parking spaces here are a huge bonus: unpack then forget about the car until home-time! Check your fitness-tracker and you’ll see there are 23 steps down from car to the front door; when you’re ready to explore, East Looe’s holiday hot spots are around 200 metres downhill. The town is famous for its banjo-shaped harbour wall and lanes lined with cafes, pubs and restaurants. The South West Coast Path passes through town; for wider exploration take a train ride to Liskeard on the scenic Looe Valley Line.

  • 2 bedrooms – 1 double, 1 twin (zip-and-link beds that can be configured as a super-king upon request)
  • 1 bathroom with a bath, walk-in rainfall shower and a WC
  • Induction hob, electric fan oven, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, fridge/freezer
  • Travel cot, highchair and stairgate provided on request when booking

Mizzen is a lovely quirky house with exceptional views of Looe from every room. Kitchen is one of the best equipped kitchens we have seen. Lounge has a lovely cosy den feel to it. Nice to have its own drive. The road is tight but doable ( we got in ok with an Audi Q3 2013) Bedrooms simple but everything you need in a bedroom. Loved the room downsRead moretairs for quiet reading. Would have loved to make use of the the balcony with the very nice furniture and pretty lights but it was slightly cold and windy. A very happy feel to Mizzen. Steep hill but doable and not too far up. Lovely to have nothing in front of you but the view. Hide

Fantastic house was brilliant with views over Looe close to beach and amenities- road is no problem if you only go from the top - we have a large volvo. Loved the decor, clean and well equipped in kitchen - loved the balcony for eating out on - perfect would stay here again if visiting Looe in the future.

Location and the view from the property is great. The property has everything you need. The road to the property is very steep, narrow and tight in places. A very large vehicle will struggle in places.
