Tranquil Fisherman's Cottage a Minute From The Beach with free reserved parking

Sandpipers is a 150 year old ex-fisherman's cottage ideally situated in the heart of East Looe. It is arranged over 3 floors, set in a quiet traffic free lane and only metres from Looe's sandy beach, picturesque working fishing harbour and bustling promenade, with all the town's facilities on your doorstep. Sandpipers has been extensively refurbished, including a new kitchen and wet room, whilst keeping it’s original character. It has extensive living space within as well as outside seating on a planted, open courtyard and benefits from a free reserved parking space in the Millpool carpark nearby.
The stairs are a little steep, as are all ex-fishermans cottages in Looe, but may not suit less mobile guests.

Unbeatable location in the sweetest of Cornish coastal towns. We have never stayed in anywhere so convenient! The cottage is sweetly compact and the parking being included was a real bonus.

Fantastic stay

Fantastic location, so close to the beach. The cottage had everything we needed. Beds were nice and comfortable. The stairs took a bit of getting used to, you really have to pay attention when using them. We would happily come and stay again in this delightful fisherman’s cottage.
