Moments away from the bustling narrow streets and picturesque harbour of Looe, this whitewashed cottage strikes the perfect note for a relaxing stay on the South East coast. Set across two floors, the owners have retained the original features whilst integrating contemporary comforts and personal touches – the result is a charming family home filled with warmth and character. From the large inglenook fireplace with wood-burning stove to the sculptural driftwood and natural tones, every detail inspires you to settle in and make this space your own. So whether you’re here for an action-packed Cornish getaway or a quiet retreat, you’ll find this home brings a wonderful sense of comfort and ease to daily living. Outside, the tiered garden invites you to enjoy beautiful views across the town towards the glistening shoreline. There’s an elevated terrace with a charcoal barbecue – perfect for embracing the magic of outdoor living. And when you’re ready to get warm and cosy, the living room beckons you inside to spend relaxing evenings by the fire. From here, it’s just a short walk down to the harbour and beach. Alongside the South West Coast Path, there’s also easy access to the river and surrounding countryside, while... renowned local restaurants such as The Sardine Factory celebrate the art of locally-sourced fish prepared in delicious style.
