About this property

A charming 18th century stone barn conversion set in the heart of bustling East Looe within moments from the local amenities and close to the sandy beach with a south-facing balcony and far-reaching sea views.

This gorgeous cottage in the pretty coastal town of Looe is perfect for families or friends looking for a relaxing holiday in a beautiful part of Cornwall. Looe is divided into two by the Looe River and connected by a bridge. The town has a long history as a fishing port, and today you can still enjoy watching the fishing boats coming in and out of the scenic harbour. The beach at East Looe is less than 350 metres away, so bring your buckets and spades for traditional seaside fun.

This reverse-level, Grade II-listed property, set over three levels, is full of character. The upper level has an open-plan kitchen/dining and living room with patio doors leading to the balcony. The living area is light filled with a high vaulted ceiling, exposed beams, and natural wooden flooring. Two comfortable sofas invite you to relax and watch your favourite shows on the Smart TV or spend time out on the balcony enjoying the views and fresh sea air. The kitchen provides all you need to create delicious home-cooked meals. On the ground floor, you will find an en-suite bedroom with three single beds and a double bedroom with a private shower room. A utility room and an additional entrance door are on the lower ground floor. The enclosed balcony is ideal to sit out and watch the sunset or enjoy a morning coffee while enjoying sea views across towards Banjo Pier. Although there is no outside space Looe is perfect for a stroll from your doorstep.

Local attractions worth a visit include the Monkey Sanctuary (4.5 miles) or a boat trip from the harbour to Looe Island Nature Reserve to discover the local wildlife. If your family prefers a day of thrills and spills then Adrenaline Quarry is a must-visit (7.5 miles) with zip lines and water-based adventures to enjoy. If it’s a bucket and spades day, head to Polperro (5 miles) or Lantic Bay (9.5 miles) for the best beaches.
