Sea view inside and on balcony. Could not hear other flat owners. 14 steps up to Flat. Very dog orientated but no evidence of them. Easy parking, stroll down to the nearby beach. In direct contact with owner as there was a problem with tv which was promptly sorted out with her. Thank you.

The kitchen is fully equipped, with a good selection of cooking utensils, as well as crockery and glasses. We thoroughly enjoyed our comfortable stay, making the most of the balcony and views. Downderry is a beautiful little village, in an area that was new to us, so we were out and about exploring every day.We would certainly recommend the Bolt Hole for future visitors.

Owners really have thought about everything to make your stay perfect . Very dog friendly with treats and equipment left for our boy . Lovely sunny balcony to enjoy the sea view with comfortable furniture . Very quiet / peaceful area but only a short drive from the busier town of Looe. Book it ! Definitely a 10/10 property !
