Unfortately, the apartment was not cleaned when we arrived at the apartment. The cleaning-lady arrived within 30 minutes, but the cleaning was superficial. The flowers at the stairs and at the terrace are rotten and uncared for.

ully set up for guests arrival, but there has been a misunderstanding in timings. The terrace is a shared space, and at the end of a hot summer the potted plants were looking tired, but will be refreshed in the spring.

The most perfect view we have ever seen, the harbour on the left and the beach on the right, then the little town buildings and quaint shops in the middle. The apartment inside was cosy and offered everything we needed and more! Lovely touches all round to make it feel like a home from home. The apartment is on the small side, but all appliances arRead moree there, including a dish washer. Steep slopes to the apartment followed by quite a few steep steps, but well worth the exercise.

We stayed for 2 weeks. Looe is a lovely family friendly place plenty to do. There's good restaurants. lots of attractions around the area. The apartment we did find cramped. Also consider the steps on the outside which lead up to the top floor are steep and your out of breath when reach the top. It was extra difficult when we first arrived with allRead more our stuff and when leaving. Its tricky with the parking there's yellow lines narrow road on a bend. However view is magnific and owners very helpful. Hide

Lovely apartment in a stunning village, spotlessly clean and has everything you could need and more. Location is not only a perfect base for seeing all that Cornwall has to offer up but even just to enjoy all that Looe has to offer.
