  Pixie Cottage is a very old fisherman’s cottage and was built when people were shorter than now.

  I’m 5’ 9” or 1m 75cm for those that think that way. I managed to go a whole week without banging my head on the staircase, only doing so on the last morning. For anyone taller I would just say heed the warnings or you’ll collect a good few bruises. Also, you will have to crouch when using the shower as there was barely an inch or so of clearance between my head and the ceiling. Other than that the cottage is great, superbly equipped and only a short walk from the centre of Looe. However, that walk is relatively steep, especially if you opt to turn left and take the short route. You have to bear in mind that we hail from Cambridgeshire where it is relatively flat. I would say that if you have mobility issues I could not recommend staying here but if you are generally fit I would have no reservations whatsoever in saying it’s a great place to stay.

  Such a lovely apartment, with excellent views and a brilliant position, very close to buses, trains and shops.

  Only one very small negative, which I was surprised about. The info stated that 'towels and bedding are supplied' and I've never stayed anywhere which said that but didn't include the kitchen items!! Therefore I did not take a kitchen towel, a dishcloth or a teatowel, and none of that was provided, which was extremely awkward. It surprised me even more because it seemed everything else had been thought of - they are provided milk, biscuits, condiments, teabags, sugar, washing-up liquid etc - all extremely welcome. The apartment was an absolute pleasure to be in, and a small food store and various pasty shops, etc were within a few metres from the apartment. There were even plenty of coathangers, a coat rack, a torch (should there be a power cut), books, dvds, ...... Would I stay there again? Absolutely! Beautiful apartment! Thank you.

  We found Looe to be a lovely place.

  However, the property really let our stay down. It is in need of some investment/TLC and a really deep clean. We didn't enjoy being in the cottage because everything felt so dirty- the sofas, (under the sofas was disgusting), the kitchen floor, sides, I could go on. The cottage had a very fusty smell as well. Other notes- no bins upstairs, front garden needs cutting back- walking up the steep steps was difficult because of the overgrown bushes), oven needed trays- the one that was attached to the door wasn't big enough and was fixed too low, recycling- the guide said recycling could be taken to milpool car park- there isn't recycling facilities there, so we had to bring our recycling home (!!!!). The cottage could be beautiful and enjoyable if the above was taken note of. For the price we paid wholly disappointing.

  The location of the house was very good in that we could walk into Looe town (no parking necessary).

  It was not good however because of the steep hill we had to climb to get back to the house. Even worse were the steps leading up to the front door and up the back garden. Made of stone, they were extremely steep, very slippy, and the handrail buried in the bushes. This made getting heavy luggage both in and out very dodgy indeed as a fall would have been possibly serious. It was dangerous for everybody let alone people with limited mobility. In addition parking in the allotted space was often very difficult because of the narrowness of the lane and the fact that cars were nearly always parked directly opposite. The house itself was very spacious and comfortable and well equipped although some fittings needed to be improved. It was also unfortunately surrounded by some very shabby property in dire need of renovation.

  The apartment as usual was really good clean tidy and everything we needed for a wonderful holiday .

  Which we enjoyed very much The only downside was the very scruffy and dirty downstairs hall , it was full of rubble rubbish and dirt that we had to walk by ever time entering and leaving the building.near the front door ,it looked like a new entrance was being made and sawdust and litter was left to stride over.,This was being walked up the stairs but someone had tried to clean it up without moving the mess. We were there 10 days and we saw no workers working on what looked like a renovation of this ground floor flat, this mess and rubble should have been contained inside the flat keeping the hall clean and tidy for all other occupants using the building.i think this situation should be complained about by the flat owners not a good look when entering this doorways.
