Car parking is a distance from the cottage, the owners are very friendly and helpful. Very nice welcome pack, the train station is very nearby and we made use of it to trip into Looe. If you have a fear of driving on narrow roads, itâs not the place for you.

Great location for exploring. The owner greeted us on arrival, had left tea, coffee, milk and a bottle of wine. Inside the place was lovely, very clean. I would definitely recommend. My two Jack Russellâs loved exploring the garden.
