Elmbank is a gorgeous house - really spacious and well equipped.
It is also in a great position, only a few minutesâ walk from the town with various shops, including 2 Co Ops and approx 10 mins walk from the beach. As others have mentioned, the hill to get up Shutta Road is pretty steep but we managed it with our 3 children aged 6, 3 and 9 months, usually going out at least twice a day. Pushing the buggy up was hard though!! The owners sent us a pdf with lots of really useful information the day before our stay and it was a nice surprise to find out that a parking permit would be available as this wasnât included within the Sykes listing. When we arrived we were a bit nervous to use it as the details were completely faded and unreadable - but after a quick message to the East Looe Town Trust who manage the car park, they provided us with a new replacement permit. The car park is next to the beach, which was actually handy for leaving beach gear in but the spaces are very tight so unless you have a small car, you probably wouldnât want to have to navigate getting in and out each day. We actually didnât use the car all week which was lovely and although this was one of the more expensive places we have stayed in recently (also much bigger, as it has 3 bedrooms when we only really needed 2), it was well worth the money to be able to walk everywhere and nip down to the beach when the sun popped out. There are very few downsides to this property but if you are thinking of staying with young children (crawlers) be aware that there are 2 open fires with real coals in. We left our 9 month old in the lounge for a few mins when we arrived and came back to find him looking like a chimney sweep!! There is also not much of a garden - only a paved area but with a picnic bench - but this wasnât an issue with the beach so close. We are were also confused as to why a note had been left in the property stating that recycling wouldnât be taken that week - even though other houses on the road had their recycling bags out and a quick chat with one of the general refuse collectors confirmed that recycling would be taken as usual. However, the bags werenât left for us so we didnât have much choice which doesnât sit well when we try hard to be as eco friendly as we can.

We loved our stay at Elmbank, a lovely big 3 storey home with absolutely everything you need for a home from home stay.
Perfect for a family or group of friends as the house is so big. Spotlessly clean with access to plenty of towels and bedding if required. The views overlooking Looe Harbour were spectacular day and night, and as the weather was perfect we loved sitting on the front patio with a bottle of wine. You have use of a bbq, and there are all sorts of things to help with your day on the beach, such as wind breakers, cooler bags, buckets/spades etc, even a trolley to help with carrying it all back and fore. The home has a smart TV so you can access your Netflix and Apple TV accounts, surround sound sonos speakers and plenty of comfortable seating for the nights spent indoors. The kitchen and utility room is equipped for all of your needs, nothing has been forgotten. There's also a small travel hairdryer. The only negatives was the walk up the hill from looe town/beach especially on arrival with heavy luggage and bags, as there was no way our car would fit on the road up to the house. We are fairly fit so it was OK, I wouldn't let it put you off, but we nearly brought our parents who would not have been able to manage the hill every day. The car was parked in the long stay car park, which was again fine for us, as we didn't use tbe car all week as the weather was amazing, and we used the train to travel out of Looe (recommended) but if you have typical British wet weather you would need to walk for about 10 to 15 mins to get the car. Also the garden area needs some tlc, with maybe some extra seating/ sun loungers as it really is a gorgeous sun trap garden. I say these are negatives but they're not the end of the world and won't spoil your stay. We would definitely come back to Elmbank it really is a lovely house to spend your holiday in.

A wonderful property with a stunning view to while away a few hours watching life on the estuary and viewing the sunset.
The house had been cleaned thoroughly before arrival, so felt really comfortable in these strange times. So good to have quality king size beds and mattresses to ensure a good nights sleep, with the seagulls providing a natural alarm clock. Like other comments, this is a lovely period house but the road to the house was designed for a horse and cart more than the modern car, great as no traffic to disturb you, but would only attempt it if you have a small car. The town is very busy this year, so book restaurants and trips ahead to avoid disappointment. My tip is that as there is a short but very steep hill to climb out of the town centre back to the house, take some bags with you and bring a few groceries back each time you go out. Better still book a fishing trip on one of the boats advertising on the quayside and catch your own supper. Overall we wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property to anyone looking for a holiday in Looe.

We had a great stay at Elmbank.
The house was really spacious and comfy. The views from the two front bedrooms and sitting room was great, overlooking the river, our only disappointment was it was too cold to sit outside on the terrace and enjoy the views from there! We only came across the house guide by accident, which gave us the information as to where we can park our car, so a bit clearer guidance I think would help guests. We stayed out of season and hadn't considered that a lot of the restaurants would have been closed, so not as much choice for food as we'd been expecting, but the places we did eat at were great. Unlike others I had known that there was a steep slope up to the house, but it just meant we got to walk off whatever food we'd just eaten!

We had the best week in Looe and Elmbank was the icing on the cake!
Spotlessly clean, had everything you could possibly require, spacious, welcoming and the most comfortable beds! The views especially from first floor bedroom when you opened the curtains in the morning made the holiday. I underestimated when booking, how steep the climb would be to the house, so if mobility is an issue that is the only minus point but the house and terrace was definitely worth it and as a previous reviewer said burns off âSarahâs Pastiesâ! Booking the Quadbike and Trailer on our departure was a revelation and another time, now we know the steepness of the hill, would definitely book both ways next time - a brilliant service. We will be back for sure!
