Over in the kitchen you have several appliances at your fingertips including an electric oven with a gas hob, a fridge/freezer, microwave and a washer/dryer. Discover two beautiful blue velvet sofas in the sitting room, a haven where you can wind down at the end of the day, with a wall-mounted Smart TV and patio doors leading out to a small decked area at the front of the property, great for letting in the fresh coastal breeze. Three lovely bedrooms offer elegant sleeping spots for all, choose from either one of the two double bedrooms, with the master home to an en-suite basin and WC, and a single room complete with a TV, served by the family bathroom, home to a bath with a shower over. Spend time outside in the tiered garden, with the decked area at the front, as well as a raised decked area to the back to choose from, and a small lawned area, you can dine alfresco or relax with an evening drink as you soak in the views. The town of Looe prides itself on its fresh fish, so don't hesitate to sample the local catch at one of the many restaurants specialising in seafood dishes here, or grab the best fish and chips from award-winning fish and chips shops and stroll down to the harbour to watch the boats return as you tuck in. Looe's popular beach, East Looe Beach, is home to golden sands and a gentle slope into the waters, so it's great for swimming and paddling, and is right beside all the amenities you need like beach shops and cafés. Enjoy a thrilling day at the nearby attraction of Adrenalin Quarry, an old quarry site transformed into an action-packed outing with zip-lines, deep-water swimming, go-karting and an inflatable water assault course! Get up-close to exotic animals at Porfell Wildlife Park and Sanctuary, home to meerkats, monkeys and zebras, as well as a kid's farm and a recreated Maasai village, it's a great day out for all ages.
