  We go on a walking holiday every year, and this was by far the nicest accommodation we have stayed in. As walkers, the steep climb to the house was doable, but more infirm guests might want to consider this. I surveyed Shutta road, and there was no way my car (a Skoda Enyaq) was going to fit. I would suggest the largest you could get there is a Ford Focus sized vehicle. However, there was an allocated parking space a few minutes walk away, as well as fast chargers for EVs. The decor and equipment in the house was excellent. A lovely kitchen, with an island, and ample crockery, pots and pans and enough dishwasher and washing machine tabs for our 4 night stay. The beds were comfy and the rooms quiet, and the bathrooms were new and clean. The TVs in the house came with good streaming services, and there was a nice stereo and PS2 (which we didn't use, but was a nice touch). Definitely recommended for active people, with great access to coastal walks and the station.

  Ivydene is lovely, Equipment, views, perfect. Only one complaint is the access to the property, (Car port) Just think it should be made 100% clear that the access road Shutta road is one way and is 6'3 in places. Most Medium cars will find it very tight to get to property. If not impossible! leaving all luggage and shopping to be carried up a very steep incline and/or steep steps from the Harbour car park. As this is a 4 bed house, In my opinion families with young children and maybe grandparents would struggle unless very fit. Travel instructions need an update Barclays bank is now a clothing shop. I would recommend arriving in daylight. Alternative parking space at Mill pool car park is fine. Although car port was too small for our car it would have been nice to drop luggage off at house and park at Mill Pool. This was not possible. Once there house as I say is lovely.

  We had a fantastic short stay at this beautifully converted mill. The space was generous, well-equipped, and full of thoughtful touches that made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The hot tub was the perfect way to unwind after a day exploring, and the excellent WiFi and EV charging were great bonuses. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the welcome treats—tea, coffee, milk, and cakes—were a lovely touch. There were also plenty of extras, including visitor guides, books to read, and games to play, which made it feel like a home away from home. Tucked away in a peaceful cluster of six cottages, the location was ideal for a tranquil retreat while still offering easy access to local towns. A perfect balance of seclusion and convenience! Would highly recommend this stay and would love to return in the future.

  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.
