Nestled on the scenic South Cornwall Coast 20 miles West of Plymouth, Looe is a quaint medieval fishing port which comes alive during the summer months. The town is divided into East and West Looe by the estuary of the Looe River flowing gently between the two villages. East Looe is a thriving fishing port where you can watch the early morning auction of the freshly landed fish and West Looe is on the quieter side of the river where you can find the starting point for the heritage trail. Just a short walk through the maze of alleyways of East Looe and you will reach a beautiful sandy beach perfect for families and ideal for rock pooling.

The unspoilt fishing village of Polperro is just 3 miles away, a maze of narrow lanes leading down to a picturesque and truly unspoilt harbour.

There are many attractions available in and around Looe including speed boat trips round the bay, wreck fishing trips, sailing in a real Cornish lugger or simply relaxing on the beach. Looe and Polperro also make a fantastic base for exploring the wider area, from spending a day at the Eden Project to visiting the historic city of Plymouth, with it’s sights, shops and attractions.
