Fantastic window view, very clean, comfortable furnishings. Very well equipped kitchen and well appointed bathroom. Plenty of good quality outdoor furniture. Very useful communication from the owner in advance about parking options. The property is on a hill as are many in Looe but the view is fantastic with the lovely window seat. Lots to Read moredo in Looe and surrounds with good quality shopping, restaurants, lovely beach and welcoming pubs. Hide

The views were great and all mod cons were good. The garden was full of weeds and the grass was really long. The block paving needs power washing as was dirty and had a fair bit of moss.

Fantastic holiday location with a stunning view. Property provided everything we needed. Extra touches were appreciated what with the record player and telescope. Great cycling from the doorstep, a level of fitness needed. Great views of the baby seagulls opposite, we didn't feed the seagulls. So much to do and we did it, even took the CanadiaRead moren canoe up stream. Amazing. Hide

Meadowsweet is a beautiful house with amazing views over East Looe. It was spotlessly clean and extremely well equipped. We were able to bring our dog which was vital to us. We loved sitting on the deck and on the window seat and just seeing the world go by down on the river and in town. There are a couple of good pubs very nearby and a couple of wRead moreell stocked little food shops too. The drive up to the house is really very steep so not suitable for people who would struggle with this. We opted for parking in the main car park - 25 for a week and didnt find any reason to use the car all week. Looe is a cosy little town with some nice shops and restaurants. Plenty to keep us happy for a week. Wish we had booked it for two! Next time!! Hide

What an absolutely stunning place to relax and recharge! Could not have asked for more. We had an amazing week - loved seeing the view change with the light and the weather. Looe itself is utterly charming and we very much enjoyed exploring the little shops and pubs. The house was spotlessly clean and really well equipped - thank you!! Until next yRead moreear! Hide

Beautifully well equipped cottage with a fantastic view of Looe Harbour and beyond. Pet friendly with an enclosed garden which our pooch could investigate without his lead.

We had an amazing time at Meadowsweet. The cottage is beautifully done and the view from the bay window and the outside deck was incredible. We had mixed weather but still had a fabulous time. This was my first visit to Cornwall and Looe ticked all the boxes and is my favourite seaside town. We liked it far better than Fowey. The only tricky bit waRead mores the steep hill and parking, which wasn't a surprise as it's in the description, but it is extremely steep and narrow so be prepared for that as a wide car will not get through. My partner is a pro driver - I wouldn't have parked up there if it was me driving, so be prepared! But the position and view of the cottage was well worth the effort and once we were there we did lots of walking to town which was fun and within easy distance. (Had to walk off the tasty pasties and cream teas!) Loved the cottage which is comfortable and has everything for a fantastic holiday and a fabulous night's sleep. Thanks. Hide

Meadowsweet is the perfect location for peace and comfort. Thank you for the welcome scones, cream and jam - nice! Looe is a friendly fishing village. Great food. We'll come again, and again.
