    The venue was in a very central location just off the welcome received, Looe Island, and the seaside and all main streets and attractions in Looe.

    The services were great, including absolutely superb and amazing breakfasts and free parking if needed. The room was tastefully decorated and spotless, we had down pillows. The staff was very very helpful and extremely friendly, offered to visit some nice places. The location couldn't be more magnificent and unbeatable over the estuary with a glass of wine.

    Amazing stay with lovely hosts!

    Andrew and Stephanie are super friendly. The view from our room was fine, and that breakfast? Best I've ever had! Only wish the parking was a bit easier, but we managed.

    parking challenge
    limited accessibility

    Really good Hosts and Fine Views!

    The room was beautifully decorated and offered a fantastic view of the estuary. I particularly loved the hearty breakfast with fresh local ingredients, served in a warm atmosphere. The only downside was that we had a bit of trouble finding parking nearby, but the free permit helped ease the challenge.

    Recommend for a city holiday

    Beautiful room, delicious breakfast, with superb scrambled eggs that were so creamy and fresh Cornish tea, alongside free Wi-Fi in public areas, made for an lovely stay just 40 km from the nearest airport.

    breakfast choice
    freshly made

    It was just a fitting option for a weekend pause in Looe with reasonable price. The breakfast choices were fantastic and freshly made, really hit the spot. Parking can get tricky, so arrive a bit early.

    friendly staff
    great breakfast
    amazing view
    steep climb
    low shower pressure

    The hosts were so friendly and cute, it was like home. Breakfast was super delish with loads of options. The room had this amazing view of the river, and the bed was really comfy. Location was perfect, just a quick walk to the beach and town. Loved the little touches like fresh milk in the fridge and a cup of tea on arrival.

    The climb to the guest house was a bit steep, so not great for those with mobility issues. Wished the shower had a bit more pressure.

    local breakfast

    Charming, Charming, Charming

    My room was a Superior King Room with amazing views of the Looe estuary! The local breakfast was a highlight, with the most delicious bacon and my all-time favorite mushrooms. Andrew and Stephanie treated us like family, always greeting us with warmth and providing personalized tips on local hotspots.

    terrace experience
    weak wi-fi
    limited connectivity

    The room we had overlooked the river, and i loved enjoying a glass of wine on the terrace watching the boats go by in the evening. After a previous stay in looe, this place was great with its fine views and attentive hosts.

    wi-fi signal was weak in the room.

    A Good Stay with Fine Views

    Enjoyed serene sunsets on the balcony with a glass of wine. Stephanie and Andrew's warm hospitality. The breakfast choices were really good, and the comfortable beds. Best of all, the free parking permit eased our worries in busy Looe. Highly recommended!

    peaceful location

    a good stay but quiet location

    Our room's outlook onto a fine walled garden was a fantastic surprise. Stephanie and Andrew provided really good tips on hidden local gems for beaches and attractions.

    The location is peaceful but might feel too serene for those seeking more lively surroundings.

    cozy room

    comfortable bed
    low ceilings
    no bath

    The room was cozy and thoughtfully decorated. The bed was super comfy-definitely the best sleep I've had in ages! I also loved the little touches like the fridge and fresh milk. The only downside was the low ceilings on the upper floor. I had to duck a bit. A really pleasant stay!

    warm hospitality
    top-quality breakfast

    Ideal for families with children

    Had a awesome breakfast every morning with great quality and local produce. The hosts offered a warm welcome and treated us like we were part of the family.

    It wasn't exactly a bargain, but you get what you pay for, right?
