Overview
Property code: OC-L30071

Ferry View is a centrally located property in West Looe with a view overlooking the town and river. A perfect retreat for a family or group of friends. Recently refurbished, this comfortable accommodation is arranged as reverse-level to make the most of the views with an open plan kitchen/lounge/diner featuring large patio doors that lead out to a balcony with a panoramic view of Looe. A well-equipped house with a lockable utility outbuilding which is perfect for storing beach equipment and bikes.

The scenic harbour is just a short walk away and has several shops, cafes, and restaurants for you to enjoy. Across the bridge into East Looe there is an even larger selection of restaurants to choose from, as well as the sheltered sandy beach, local history museum and the pier (aptly named 'Banjo Pier' due to its shape). The picturesque village of Polperro is only five miles away and can be accessed by walking along the stunning Southwest Coastal Path, where you will be treated with a lovely view of St George's Island.

This is a lovely cottage, with plenty of space. The living area is fantastic open and airy with delightful views over Looe. The sitting area and balcony is great. The kitchen is very well equipped and theres plenty of space to store your food and supplies. We all found the beds very comfortable and the storage for clothes was very good . The loweRead morer rooms felt a bit a damp and chilly so we put on the heating in the evenings. Both showers were really good pleats of hot water and good pressure. The house is up a very narrow sloping road that is quite challenging and if you have a very large car or an anxious driver it would be very difficult and stressful. There are steep steps down to the cottage too. Which if you had a mobility issues or had small children or babies wouldnt be ideal. The location for everything is fab though. Easy to walk around Looe, get the bus or the ferry. shops , beaches and restaurants are lovely friendly people everywhere. Definitely would recommend Hide

Lovely cottage. Relaxing and peaceful views of the river and looe houses. Fairly steep hill up to the house which was fine in our automatic car (people carrier) and parking was tight but we managed it fine because it wasnt full, however I can see it would be tricky even with a smaller car to park if it were full. Bed was extremely comfortable andRead more decently sized and the rooms were a good size too. We hadnt realised it was over three floors (didnt read small print!) so not ideal with young children but can work it so that the younger ones are on the same floor in the basement. The house was quite chilly so would advise packing some warm clothes unless heatwave/warm weather forecast. Kitchen and place well equipped and a fantastic selection of board games etc to play which looked brand new. Hide

A nice cottage well equipped but we had issues with the ensuite bedroom as the shower ceiling was black and damp with a dehumidifier running 24/7 and smelling very damp so we couldn't use the ensuite. After several days the cleaning company admitted there had been a leak 4 weeks prior and offered compensation which we accepted as we were nearly hRead morealfway through our holiday.

Very clean and great location. Kitchen is really well stocked. Parking is quite tricky and a small car is required to fit. All else brilliant

We had a great stay for my mums 70th birthday getaway, however a couple of issues were picked up. Toilet seat in main bathroom was broken on arrival which we did report. Cleaning could have been a little better, dusty skirting boards, remainders of cereal left in the bottom of the kitchen bin which we noticed when putting a bin liner in and blackRead more damp mold residue on the top of the under sink cupboard door in the twin en-suit. Radiator on the ground floor hallway was constantly hissing/whistling despite trying to turn it down/up/off. Also we didnt see any tea towels in the kitchen, however when unpacking clothes we did see two in the wardrobe which appeared to be clean. It was a great stay and fabulous shops and restaurants, none of the above issues ruined our stay, just to be aware that there is only one space at the property which the road to the property is very narrow, although dad did get his Sportage up there very carefully, however if you do not mind the walk there is a paid carpark on the key.
