Whether you’re a couple seeking a romantic bolthole or a small family looking for a central Looe base, this stunning and oh-so-cosy cottage is certain to provide the perfect base for you. With its working fishing port and golden sanded beaches, Looe really is an optimal location for a Cornish coastal retreat. Discover the town’s nautical history at the Sardine Factory Heritage Centre or Looe Museum (both 0.5 miles), head to East Looe Beach (1 mile) for a swim in the sea or simply link up with the South West Coast Path (less than 500 metres) to enjoy mile-upon-mile of coastal scenery. Those with a young child in tow will find plenty to enjoy at the Wild Futures Monkey Sanctuary (4.5 miles), Porfell Wildlife Park (7.5 miles) or Adrenaline Quarry (11.5 miles), whilst those seeking a slower-paced activity will appreciate the beauty of St Elliot House and Gardens (15.5 miles).
With plenty of traditionalism maintained, it’s clear that this cosy and compact cottage has been decorated to honour its history and make the very most of the small space. Step in via stable doors to find an open-plan lounge, kitchen and diner with stone-flagged flooring exposed brickwork and an overall sense of nautical charm. Both a sofa and a cushioned window seat offer a space to relax with a good book or whilst watching the Smart TV. There’s a wood burner-effect electric fire waiting to keep the room warm and inviting, as well as a compact kitchen with a handsome Belfast sink. Contemporary fixtures and fittings can be found upstairs in the shared family bathroom. The master bedroom is right here on the first floor, complete with a double bed and characterful shutter windows. Finally, a cosy single room offers space for one guest to sleep.
Whilst this property doesn't have a garden, it does benefit from a private parking space – a highly sought-after feature in busy Looe! Wander the short journey down to the beach to take in the fresh air.
