The sandy shores of East Looe Beach, the breathtaking South West Coast Path, and the lively harbour are all reachable within 200 metres.

Mrs Holman
A great apartment with lovely views over Looe. Steep access to the apartment need to be aware of this.

We had a wonderful stay at Sea Aster. Lovely clean, bright, well equipped apartment with views of the beach and town of Looe. Just a short walk into the centre. Nice to have use of table and chairs outside. Hosts were very helpful. Would definitely return.

Lovely place. Well kept. Downside, up a very step hill like some of the rest of Looe. I have mobility issues so it was a bit of a challenge.
