Contemporary and cosy, this Cornish retreat in West Looe is made for families who love to stay near the sea. Enjoy incredible waterside views of the East Looe river estuary from the comfort of your apartment which sleeps four, and find a pub, shop, and beach within a mile. Whether you enjoy traditional seaside fun, seafood restaurants, or heritage attractions, this part of South Cornwall has all three. See the best highlights of the region from the spectacular South West Coast Path (0.5 miles).

 

Head upstairs to your inviting apartment on the top floor where you’re greeted with bright and airy interiors with a restful coastal theme. Kick off your boots in the hall and settle into squishy sofas where you can make plans for the day or enjoy popcorn evenings in front of the Smart TV. Cook up a storm in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoy sunset drinks from your private seating area on the shared balcony. You’ll enjoy a great night’s sleep here in the dreamy bedrooms where you’ll wake up each day to those stunning river views, inspiring another great day of adventures in South Cornwall.

 

Enjoy sandy fun on East Looe beach (1.5 miles), and take boat trips to Looe Island. Head west for the Polperro Heritage Coast (2.5 miles), the National Trust Lantic Bay (9.5 miles), and the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (16 miles). If you love nature and heritage, hop on the train from Looe to the stannery town of Liskeard (9.5 miles), and spot wading birds and woodland creatures along the way. And don’t miss The Monkey Sanctuary (5.5 miles) where you’ll meet curious capuchins, woolly monkeys, and barbary macaques.

Unfortately, the apartment was not cleaned when we arrived at the apartment. The cleaning-lady arrived within 30 minutes, but the cleaning was superficial. The flowers at the stairs and at the terrace are rotten and uncared for.

ully set up for guests arrival, but there has been a misunderstanding in timings. The terrace is a shared space, and at the end of a hot summer the potted plants were looking tired, but will be refreshed in the spring.

The most perfect view we have ever seen, the harbour on the left and the beach on the right, then the little town buildings and quaint shops in the middle. The apartment inside was cosy and offered everything we needed and more! Lovely touches all round to make it feel like a home from home. The apartment is on the small side, but all appliances arRead moree there, including a dish washer. Steep slopes to the apartment followed by quite a few steep steps, but well worth the exercise.

We stayed for 2 weeks. Looe is a lovely family friendly place plenty to do. There's good restaurants. lots of attractions around the area. The apartment we did find cramped. Also consider the steps on the outside which lead up to the top floor are steep and your out of breath when reach the top. It was extra difficult when we first arrived with allRead more our stuff and when leaving. Its tricky with the parking there's yellow lines narrow road on a bend. However view is magnific and owners very helpful. Hide

Lovely apartment in a stunning village, spotlessly clean and has everything you could need and more. Location is not only a perfect base for seeing all that Cornwall has to offer up but even just to enjoy all that Looe has to offer.
