Exceptional Stay with Stunning Views Over Looe
10.0
I had a fantastic stay at Looe Self Catering. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and well equipped, making it easy to relax from the moment I arrived. The highlight was the stunning view of Looe overlooking the river — a beautiful and peaceful scene to wake up to each morning. Clive was an excellent host. His communication was clear and helpful throughout, and he made sure everything was ready for a smooth and enjoyable stay. Great location, amazing views, and a host who truly cares. I would happily stay again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Looe.

Great location to explore Looe.we enjoyed the coastal pathway to Polperro.
10.0
Excellent location with brilliant views of Looe. The cottage was only a few minutes walk from the town and also the beach. There was free parking available and the property was very well equipped with quality furnishings and equipment. The bed was extremely comfortable. The host was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend Little Pudding Cottage.
− Nothing negative to say but just to note the walk to the town /beach is fairly steep so not suitable for everyone
