We loved our stay in Looe.
The apartment was lovely, it had everything we needed, was in a great location. We enjoyed the view, even the walk up the big hill!
Driving through the town was an experience given its tight little streets. We walked the suitcases back to the car park instead at the end of our stay!

Had the most wonderful time with amazing views . The decor was well done - loved the open air feeling. The kitchen was beautifully equipt for any cook. All the touches and details provided. The climb up the hill to get to the property was a bit steep , but in the end it was what provided the best views. Perfectly located to walk to the beach and in town. When getting up early before the shops open provided a peaceful walk on the beach and thru the town . Thank you - loved our stay .

We only had a couple of nights stay with the intention of just chilling for the weekend. Everything about the apartment was as expected with the only disappointing part being that the heating wasn’t working in the main living area. The plumber arrived to look at it as we were leaving so it should be fine for everyone else. We would definitely recommend staying here as it was just a blip that sadly affected us.

We enjoyed our first visit to the Southwest of England. The accommodation was in a perfect location to view the town and the surrounding beaches and ocean. The only disadvantage to not only Looe but many towns is that parking is limited and guests must be prepared to walk a distance to car parks and also navigate steep hills. We found this to be a challenge at first, but then enjoyed the exercise!
The accommodation was very clean and well equipped. Unfortunately for us the wifi was a problem but I am sure this was just a glitch in the system.
Overall I would not hesitate to recommend this location to future travellers!

Great property, high above Looe. Quite a steep climb up the hill but worth it for the location. Might not suit elderly people.

We had a wonderful stay. The view is spectacular and the communication with Stella was easy and great. The apartment has everything you need. You can feel at home. Looe is a pretty town, lots of great shops, pubs and restaurants. The kids loved the crab fishing and climbing. Tintagel and St Ives are recommended, too. Notice: in England are sockets, which are different from german ones. However, there are USB connections in the apartement or adapters can be bought in the city.

4.0 / 5.0
We enjoyed every minute of our stay, totally blown away by the views from all four windows/french doors. Great location above the beach and high street up a very quaint, short but steep hill, was well worth the effort.We found Looe a delight, great beach, shops eateries & Quay. Having to leave the car in the carpark was very refreshing too, it felt like a proper holiday, we never used it once.
Please please put some good blackout curtains up in the children's room thou, we want to come back & that's the only thing we'd need to change, as the current blinds let in nearly all the daylight, so we couldn't put our little ones to bed until far too late :)
