“We had a great holiday, the apartment was clean and comfortable.”

Great location. Fell in love with the rocking chair. Where did you get it from?

I felt the amount of steps up to the property could have more accurate in the description, we knew there was some but than expected didn’t like the bin being in the back garden and having to take rubbish through the bedroom it was the only flat with no numbered bin location at the front

- Catherine, July 2024
Ann June 2024

“Great location in the town.”

Everything you need and very comfortable especially the bed. The outdoor space is such a bonus with a good view of the river and harbour. I would recommend this apartment.

“Lovely apartment with spectacular views!”

Paula April 2024

“Great apartment, everything you need and a fantastic view.”

Only downside was the lack of parking but we found some easily enough nearby.

“The only selling point to this property is of course the view and location.”

Although the property looks good inside on first appearance, there were many unsatisfactory issues. The double bed was very uncomfortable it dips right down in the middle and makes a loud cracking noise when you get out sounding and feeling like the frame is broken (left with a bad back!) we had to clean round the property before settling in as the cleanliness was extremely poor. The bedrooms (both) smelt musty and damp, we couldn't use any of the storage - wardrobes and drawers as they smelt extremely damp/musty. The towels supplied for use were rock hard and smelly/musty. The patio doors from the main bedroom led to a disgustingly dirty courtyard which was unusable, which should be regularly cleaned. The front outside seating area was not practical as too much furniture in such a small area; also the seating cushions were left out/on so were wet/damp. We couldn't regulate the hot water in the shower; therefore got scolded more than once! There was no manual or information with regards to anything in the cottage ie how to use the heating system, how to dispose of rubbish etc and the bins allocated to the flat were all locked, we therefore put most of our rubbish into the local public bins on our way out.

“We had a really nice time at this apartment, everyone in this building is really friendly.”

The property itself is spacious and has everything you need for a nice holiday. Good Internet, spacious inside and outside on the balcony, modern decor, good smart TV in the lounge, comfy seating and beds, lots of storage, kitchen with everything you need including a large fridge freezer and washing machine. The check in and information was easy too which really makes a difference when you have traveled 7 hours in a car! We will hopefully book this place again next year, we had such a nice time.

“Wonderful. Loved it.”

Will be back again.

Stephen November 2022

“We really enjoyed the property, a great location overlooking the river and the apartment was comfortable.”

We had a couple of great evenings at The Jolly Sailor Inn, food/atmosphere/entertainment, all great. There are comments about parking at the property…we parked across the river in a long stay car park, about £2.50/day, just minutes away.

- Stephen, November 2022
Mark October 2022

“Fantastic property and very well situated.”

Had everything you could possibly need and the best view you could ask for while doing the washing up! Also the shower is amazing.

- Mark, October 2022
Sarah June 2022

“Great location.”

All we needed. Couldn't close the blind on the lounge window which would have been nice for privacy in the night.

- Sarah, June 2022
Audrey November 2021

“The property is very nice and well equipped and has lovely views.”

The parking can be an issue and should be mentioned in the information. Parking outside is one hour and the car park opposite is only 3 hours with no return. We solved problem by parking in the one in West Looe which is 7 minutes on foot , is 24 hours for £2.50!

- Audrey, November 2021
Laura October 2021

“The place was lovely and a great location to Looe city centre.”

Would highly recommend this place to friends and family.

- Laura, October 2021
Vicky August 2021

“Fantastic location, 250yards away from boat yard car park which had the best rates.”

So much to do, explore and delicious places to try especially very family friendly golden guinea, daisy cafe and bassetts ice cream palour. The beach was brilliant with excellent toilet block and busy harbor, cannot wait to come back!

- Vicky, August 2021
Dale August 2021

“Great apartment located close to the town and beach.”

Great views across the River.

- Dale, August 2021
Emma June 2021

“Holiday cottage itself was clean and very well equipped.”

However, during the stay my dog became unwell after getting a foreign body stuck in his paw. 2 vet trips and a day in surgery at the vets meant 3 days were spent inside the cottage unable to leave. Upon closer inspection of the patio area we found several pieces of glass that had not been cleared up. This was likely to have caused the injury to my dog and left us with unexpected veterinary costs.

- Emma, June 2021
Janet May 2021

“A beautiful apartment with stunning views and we would definitely come back and have already recommended it to many.”

The only issue we had was with the lack of free parking at the property.

- Janet, May 2021
Angela May 2021

“Lovely apartment with fantastic views and great location.”

The steps and slope up to the entrance is steep and should be made clearer as this could be a problem to some people.

- Angela, May 2021

“I already have”

- Helen, April 2021
Emma October 2020

“Instructions given to property take you to rear of building, when access to flat is from the front, and key safe is at the front which was confusing when we arrived.”

Plus the lanes given are very narrow and were impassable given local work. Flat bin was full on arrival and didn't get emptied all week which made it difficult to dispose of rubbish. Very surprised there were no recycling facilities at property or in the vicinity.

- Emma, October 2020
David October 2020

“Sat Nav sends you down some roads that are like paths.”

Carry on into town instead.

- David, October 2020
Ellie August 2020

“Lovely clean apartment and more than spacious enough for 4 adults, a toddler and a dog.”

Beautifully decorated and very comfortable beds. Really quiet at night and no disturbances!

- Ellie, August 2020

Keen walkers, will be delighted following the South West Coast Path that passes through the town or head inland to find countless walks in the beautiful countryside.

Venture out of the town to visit the nearby towns of Polperro and Millendreath, or for a fun-filled family day out visit Adrenalin Quarry, home to an aquapark, go-karting and zip-wires across the old quarry and sheer cliffs, and even axe throwing among other pursuits.

With so much to see and do, a stay at 1 River View promises a memorable break.

About the location

LOOE

Polperro 5 miles.

Looe is Cornwall’s second largest fishing port and hence there is always a lively maritime bustle around the quay area of East Looe, which is connected to the quieter West Looe by a seven arched 19th century bridge over the River Looe. You can also catch the river taxi between East and West Looe. East Looe has narrow cobbled streets, twisting alleyways and plenty of tourist shops, whilst West Looe has a lovely outlook across the harbour. Looe’s viewpoint, Banjo Pier, can be reached from the quay and is a great spot to watch the returning fishing trawlers and look across the bay to Looe Island, which can be walked to occasionally at very low tides. The sandy Looe beach adjoins the pier and is very popular with families because of its safe shallow swimming and vast expanse of sand. There is also a great rock pool area at Hannafore that children will love. West Looe has a Heritage Centre that recently opened in the Old Sardine Factory with a climbing wall and a cafe and the delightful Kilminorth Woods have way marked walks through the majestic oak wood, rich in plant, insect and bird life. Apart from beach activities in this part of south east Cornwall, there are many mining remains on Bodmin Moor and in the Tamar Valley and much of the mining landscape has World Heritage status. This area of Cornwall has inspired writers, such as Daphne du Maurier and much of Bodmin Moor has inspired legends linked with King Arthur. There is much to explore in this beautiful part of Cornwall.
