The bustling town of Looe is divided by the ever-changing river that separates quieter West Looe from the absorbing waterfront of East Looe, with its diversity of shops, restaurants and pubs, Banjo pier and sandy beach.
The pace and routine of life in Looe follows the ebb and flow of the tide and the movement of boats returning with their catch of fresh fish. Local boatman can ferry visitors to and from either quay, or alternatively, you can enjoy a pleasant cruise along the beautiful and rugged coastline, keeping an eye out for the schools of dolphins that can often be spotted in the bay.
A guided tour will draw you deeper into the labyrinth of ancient buildings, clustered together in the narrow streets and courtyards that make up the old town of East Looe. Visit the 16th century Old Guildhall museum with its interesting exhibits detailing the town's diverse history, or relax and just while away the hours on the wonderful sandy beach, separated from the river mouth by the Banjo Pier.
The South East Cornish coastline is dotted with lovely beaches, hidden coves, and pretty seaside villages to explore. You can also join the magnificent South West Coast Path to enjoy bracing cliff top walks with spectacular views.
For a different kind of day out, the Wild Futures Monkey Sanctuary is just outside Looe, providing vital refuge for primates in need, and a fascinating family activity whilst supporting a great cause.
A holiday in Looe offers a convenient base for enjoying the diverse range of things to do in the seaside town and the surrounding South East Cornish coastline.

The Jolly Sailor
(Less than a mile)

Affectionately known as The Jolly by locals, The Jolly Sailor in West Looe is one of the country's oldest inns with low beamed ceilings, flagstone floors and a friendly ghost to prove it. Behind the bar, a comprehensive selection of beers, wines and spirits are served with lagers, ciders and real ales available on draught, and for entertainment there's a slate-bottomed pool table and regular live music events that draw in many musicians from the local area.

April 2023
Had a lovely pint in here
September 2021
Havent been in since last visit to Looe in 2001. Great service, dissapointing food, overcooked and poor value for money. A pint of off shore £5.00 quite surprised as lager was not of a great quality. Would not return on this basis sorry.
June 2021
Nice pub, very welcoming, decent beers, food okay as well.

Lovely restaurant, amazing food and great atmosphere. The chef came to chat as one of our party is vegan and he was interested to know how they had done, very thoughtful. All the staff are friendly and give very good customer service. Definitely a favourite in Looe

Wonderful pub with fantastic food. The whole team there are so helpful and friendly. Excellent.
May 2021
This was the first time we'd eaten at the Sardine Factory - Four of us for an evening meal. There was ample room between tables, food was delicious - we had starters, mains and yes some of the group had puddings too. The staff were very friendly and had a great sense of humour. We would return.
October 2020
Best restaurant we visited during our stay in Looe, staff were so friendly, you can watch the chefs at work in the open kitchen and the fish was better than excellent. Location may put you off but it would be to your loss, most definitely worth the walk over to the west side.
July 2020
We made a booking and have to say, the food and service was excellent. Price was pretty good in comparison, but the location is what added to the occasion. First class.
December 2019
Great place to visit to find out the history of Looe and plenty to entertain the kids including crafts.

Lovely restaurant. Great ambience and the food was well presented, with so much flavour. The waitresses were very friendly and cared so much that everything was ok. Can't recommend it highly enough.

The Old Sail Loft
(Less than a mile)

Former quayside warehouse, reputed to be a former haunt for smugglers and sea faring men in the 16th century. Today the Old Sail Loft is one of the top restaurants in Looe, specialising in classic/modern cuisine serving delicious steaks and fresh local fish from the quay, overlooking the pretty harbour.
The Old Sail Loft, Quay St, Looe, Cornwall, PL13 1AP (T: 01503 262131)

Fantastic location overlooking the harbour and beautiful food.
August 2021
Fabulous location, brilliant food, excellent service!
March 2019
Amazing food and service. The only thing that annoyed me was the late table. Our reservation was for 7:45 and we had to wait in the bar for half an hour before our table was ready.
May 2018
We were seated upstairs on a Thursday night around 7.45pm. The meal started well. Nice starters. Took a while for our plates to be cleared. When the mains did arrive they were tasty, but a bit on the small size. Desserts arrived before our plates had been cleared. Nobody came back after we had finished eating. Felt like we were completely forgotten about. After 25 mins or so, one of us had to go downstairs and ask for the bill. After waiting another 10-15 mins, nobody had given us the bill so we all got up and went downstairs to pay. We were told sorry, but they had been busy changing a pump, or something, on the drinks. For the prices of the food we had expected better service to be honest. We would not go back again. Either more staff are needed or some staff training is needed. It was actually very quiet by the time we were half way through our meal and we were one of the last tables to leave. So they were not rushed off of their feet. A real shame as we went there after reading some good reviews.
April 2018
Always fab food

Lookout on the Quay
(Less than a mile)
(11)
Set in an amazing location enjoying stunning riverside views, this modern cafe serves delicious local goodies accompanied by great music.
Serving breakfasts, coffees, cream teas, home-baked and gluten-free delights. Also a great place to unwind in the evening with wine/beers and nibbles, watching the sun go down.

Lovely breakfasts!! A cool little place.
February 2018
We visited a couple of times. Once for drinks on the quay - perfect view and great service. We also had tapas, which were amazing. Very tasty & reasonably priced. The owners were very friendly & welcoming.
July 2017
We have returned from a weeks holiday at Nelsons cottage in Looe. A lovely cottage and well equipped and very nicely furnished. I had a small accident whilst there which ended up having a sprained ankle, and Val (owner)was so helpful. She gave me a wheelchair and a stick, and ice packs, she also text me a couple of times to ask how I was. She even came to see me the day before we were to leave. I would would certainly stay again. If I were to have one small criticism it would be to replace the lace curtain that's damaged in the twin room, and a couple of black rubbish sacks for the bin. But that is a small thing compered to the large heart of Val. Thank you.

Looe Sailing Club
(Less than a mile)
Looe Museum
(Less than a mile)
(4)
Owned by the East Loose Town Trust, the Looe Museum is managed by a small community of volunteers, and gives a delightful insight into the history and character of the area. It’s an opportunity to develop your knowledge of the town and locality whether you’re a first time visitor or frequent tourist. They frequently house new exhibitions and take part in local events, acting as a supportive part of the community. In 2016 they celebrated the 150th anniversary of the lifeboats in Looe for example, by loaning some of its objects to the RNLI for a dedicated exhibition. Admission is £2 for adults, £1 for children, and £4.50 for families.
Very interesting and a friendly welcome. Lovely historic building
July 2021
Small museum but full of interesting artefacts. Well worth the £2 entry fee!
June 2018
Amazingly well-stocked, charming little museum, with efforts clearly made to interest both young and old. You can return as much as you like (for several months) on one ticket ... and to absorb all the information available, you may need to.
May 2018
The kids loved this compact museum especially the lady in the prison! We kept our tickets as you can return for free and they did, twice!! ????????

Looe Valley Railway Line
(Less than a mile)
(9)
Linking the bustling market town of Liskeard and the picturesque fishing port of Looe, the Looe Valley Railway Line takes you on a journey through an abundance of landscapes from heavily wooded valleys teaming with wildlife to glorious estuary views as the river meets the sea. See the river full of wading birds such as Litte egrets, Grey herons, Oystercatchers and Curlews, before stopping in Looe to explore the beaches, restaurants, shops and pubs. Take a peek at their online journey planner for prices and timetables. Dogs go free (up to two dogs per person).
beautiful line but service not very frequent
August 2022
Brilliant little railway journey. Lovely oldie Worldie station. Beautiful scenery.
July 2022
Easy to book .The train rise itself is OK but mainly through woodland so not much too see apart from trees. The walk from the train station to the town is abit of a walk about 15 minutes .The town its self is ok but seems to be for older people ie the shops are very old fashioned. Personally we would not visit again .
July 2021
Totally brilliant. Loved it
July 2021
Delightful branch line, frequent + reliable service, lovely views of estuary, woodland, bluebells ?!
June 2021
Enjoyed our train ride, but was disappointed in Liskeard, got the next train back.
September 2020
we got a group saver ticket and was very happy with the price, but unfortunately our train was due to leave at 11:10. we were sitting on the train waiting and at approximately 11:40 the driver came from his cab and apologised that the loud speakers were not working and that the train was cancelled, so we had to wait until 12:22 on a very warm train.
September 2019
Lovely little train ride alive the river, worth while. Recommend travelling to Lisgard and getting a return to Looe, much cheaper to park that way!
June 2018
a lovely short train ride through lovely scenery. Liskeard was an interesting little town to potter in for two or three hours
May 2018
The Monkey Sanctuary
(3 miles)
(1)
Not perhaps what you might expect to find in Cornwall, The Monkey Sanctuary is a delightful opportunity to learn about its 36 inhabitants, all of whom have distinct characters and personalities. An active rescue centre dealing with individuals that have often not had a very happy start to life, the priority is always their wellbeing, but it’s also an opportunity for guests to meet them and learn about the organization, explore the gardens and cultivated meadows, shop or relax in the café. There’s also a play area for children, with views of the Cornish coast. The sanctuary is closed on Fridays, but otherwise open from March to September (dates vary from year to year, so keep an eye on the website). Prices start at £8.50 per adult and £5 for children, which entitles you to entry for a whole year.
Great place they do a lot of good work for the monkeys! It’s just sad to hear some of the stories of how they were kept!
June 2018
Looe Beach
(Less than a mile)
(20)
In East Looe, the beach sits directly in front of the old town, sheltered by the Banjo Pier and overlooked from the east by the hillside of Mount Ararat. A good family beach that has something for everyone, at low tide the sandy location is safe for swimming although it’s recommended you steer clear of the river mouth beyond the pier. Unfortunately dogs aren’t allowed on this beach at any time of the year, but Hannafore beach in West Looe is dog friendly. The beach backs on to a seafront walkway which runs its length all the way to Second Beach to the east, where it tends to be less busy and it’s good for snorkeling. As it’s in the centre of the town there are lots of facilities and cafes nearby, but in the summer it’s a very popular spot and parking can be tricky, with traffic prohibited during these months, so be prepared for a bit of a walk.
Some days quite busy but great facilities and loads of activities
August 2023
Great, despite the early season seaweed, the tractor cleared it very well.
April 2023
LOVE LOVE LOVE
July 2022
All of the beaches around Looe are worth visiting - and the coastal path is a must. Fuel for the hike? Not listed in the reviews is Sarah’s Pasties which has the best pasties (we ate a lot of pasties during the week!). They were also one of the few eateries in the area which could provide something for someone needing a gluten and dairy free diet. We were able to preorder pasties that met her dietary requirements.
February 2022
Wonderful beach
December 2021
Safe and sandy beach perfect for kids
August 2021
I enjoyed the beach as it is very flat, which is important at 70, and I even had a paddle. The beach was very clean.
July 2021
One of the best beaches I have visited. It is nice and level and I was even able to have a paddle. It was very clean.
July 2021
Great beach so close all amenities
July 2021
Such a lovely beach. A shame people didn’t socially distance or even attempt to do so.
August 2020
Spent a week at new year in this beautiful apartment. Everything you could possibly need was in there. Lovely comfy bed,spotless clean and the bonus of a sea view. Central for everything. Will definitely return.
January 2020
Wonderful clean beach
October 2019
Perfect for the children but beware of seagulls. We always take a beach tent so children can safely enjoy their food and ice cream!
June 2019
Lovely beach suitable for everyone
June 2019
A wonderful place to sit relax eat an ICECREAM or a pastie, if the seagulls will let you! Perfect beach x
August 2018
You cannot fail to love Looe beach, early morning, during the day or for and evening stroll. A super clean beach.
May 2018
Lovely sandy beach. No dogs allowed but there is a small cove at the far end which allows dogs to enjoy their holiday too with a dip in The English Channel.
May 2018
Looe beach and seafront is cleaned every day (in season?) and looks good. A joy to sit and watch the sea and people passing by.
April 2018
Really good! Good sand and sea. Activities for the kids too. Difficult to get to cos no parking nearby.
August 2017
Lovely beach and even when it was busy didn't feel overcrowded
August 2017
Hannafore Beach
(Less than a mile)
(9)
Half a mile west of Looe, stretching along the coast, Hannafore Beach is a sandy, shingle bay with a rocky reef and views of St George’s Island. At low tide it’s brimming with rock pools, making it fun and games for the whole family to enjoy, and it’s a wonderful sun trap in summer months thanks to its south east facing position. Because of its location over the river, the beach never really becomes too busy, but equally there aren’t any facilities nearby. It’s popular with dog walkers as it’s amongst the few dog-friendly beaches in the area, and having explored you can extend your excursion to a stroll along the promenade or a potter around the coast path to the wonderfully scenic Talland Bay. There is roadside parking along the sea front above the beach, but it can be difficult to find a space. Alternatively, there is a large car park in West Looe, around 10 minutes away on foot.
Splendid views and dog accessible
July 2022
The best place to unwind
August 2020
Great for rock pooling
August 2020
Great fun had by our dog 'Moses'
August 2019
Lovely for the dogs!
August 2018
Really nice beach and walk
June 2018
An interesting beach, but beware the incoming tide !
April 2018
Great beach. Good view of looe island. Loads of shells to collect. Lots of dog walkers tho!
August 2017
One of the many dog friendly beaches we visited lovely coastal walks to Talland Bay the nature reserve island is very interesting great refreshments available and not forgetting the free parking available all day which is very useful.
June 2017
Plaidy Beach
(Less than a mile)
(1)
A small and pleasant grey sand beach with rocks exposed at low tide, Plaidy Beach is simply a nice place to visit and take in the scenery. There aren’t any facilities, and there’s no parking nearby so it’s one to reach on foot. There’s a slipway to the beach, but you will have to access it by walking along the coast path, parking at Millendreath or Looe and it’s worth keeping in mind that it’s quite steep from both directions. Millendreath is closer and the walk should take around 20 minutes. Dogs are allowed on the beach all year round, so it’s a charming place to take them for a walk while you’re in the area.
Great to walk to at low tide on the beach or at high tide via the footpath. Great dog friendly beach.
August 2018
Millendreath Beach
(2 miles)
(1)
Millendreath Beach is a south facing beach at the foot of a wooded valley, in a sheltered cove with soft sand and lots of rock pools to explore at low tide. It’s connected to other nearby beaches by the South West Coast Path. Dogs aren’t allowed on this beach at any time of the year, and there is a reasonably sized car park a few minutes walk away. The beach is popular with families on holiday in Cornwall, and most of the surrounding area is occupied by a holiday park, so there are lot of facilities open to the public.
Fantastic beach with wonderful water sports facilities available, loved the sea kayaks!
July 2022
Talland Bay
(3 miles)
(16)
A small, quiet beach between Looe and Polperro, Talland Bay actually comprises two beaches, one of which has sand both at low and high tide and is good for swimming all the time, while the other is less sandy and is easiest to swim from at high tide. There is a ramp for launching boats from the main beach and there are lots of small coves and tidal pools to swim in as well, so it’s a delightful area to explore in the water. Parking is limited, but there is a small, free car park by the beach and paid parking at The Beach Café, all of which provide easy access to the sand. Thanks to the nearby café, visitors can also benefit from the accompanying facilities, on-site shop, and tuck into Roskillys Cornish Ice-Cream as well.
Sit in the graveyard on the bill and look down to Talland bay. Tranquillity so special. I never fail to go there when I am down. The church is beautiful so much history.
October 2023
Having spent many a happy childhood holiday here - 60 years ago, so wonderful to return. It is so beautiful and with addition of 2 Beach cafes - even better now.
June 2023
Beautiful little bay with a great cafe overlooking it. Dogs allowed on the beach Oct to end of May.....
October 2021
Although there was indeed sand in one of the bays it was largely covered with seaweed at the water's edge when we were there. All very natural.
October 2021
Lovely bay, shingle beach
September 2021
Not a great beach and a bit smelly.
August 2021
Unfortunately the seaweed on the beach made it very smelly and also lots of flies. Beautiful apart from that!
June 2021
Lovely walk from polperro along coast. Cafe in picturesque bay pretty with little huts to shelter. Only downside was the coffee not good at all.
May 2021
Beautiful bay. A little smelly from the seaweed but rock pools galore and quiet
October 2020
Very interesting beach with rock pools at low tide and fascinating multi-coloured rocks, great for photography.
October 2019
A lovely place to walk too on the way to Looe. Hard work back up the hill to polperro, bit it's worth it!
October 2018
The coastal walk from Polperro to Talland Bay is outstanding. As both are scenic, (and Talland Bay benefits from an excellent cafe and free toilets), it makes for an excellent morning or afternoon trip in good weather.
May 2018
Lovely beach,beautiful walk from Polperro. Dogs requested to be kept on leads (which I suppose is preferable to a ban!). Families seem to use this beach alot.
May 2018
An interesting beach at low tide and lovely views.

Could not fault this apartment in any way. The owners were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The apartment was very well equipped with everything needed for the stay.

Could not fault this apartment in any way. The owners were extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the area. The apartment was very well equipped with everything needed for the stay. Great location only 2 mins from the quayside. We will definitely return. The Jolly Sailor pub next door is also in our opinion the best in Looe.

The Jolly Sailor
(Less than a mile)
(11)
Affectionately known as The Jolly by locals, The Jolly Sailor in West Looe is one of the country's oldest inns with low beamed ceilings, flagstone floors and a friendly ghost to prove it. Behind the bar, a comprehensive selection of beers, wines and spirits are served with lagers, ciders and real ales available on draught, and for entertainment there's a slate-bottomed pool table and regular live music events that draw in many musicians from the local area.
The Jolly Sailor Princes Sq, West Looe, Cornwall PL13 2EP (T: 01503 263387)

What a treat to hear the shanty singers on Thursday evenings! Great beer too.
April 2023
Had a lovely pint in here
September 2021
Havent been in since last visit to Looe in 2001. Great service, dissapointing food, overcooked and poor value for money. A pint of off shore £5.00 quite surprised as lager was not of a great quality. Would not return on this basis sorry.
June 2021
Nice pub, very welcoming, decent beers, food okay as well.

The Sardine Factory
(Less than a mile)

The Sardine Factory is a great spot to make the most of local cuisine, whether you’re visiting for breakfast, a light lunch, a family dinner or a romantic night out. Overseen by Masterchef quarter finalist Benjamin Palmer, here you'll find modern coastal cuisine using the freshest fish from Looe market opposite the restaurant.

Lovely restaurant, amazing food and great atmosphere. The chef came to chat as one of our party is vegan and he was interested to know how they had done, very thoughtful. All the staff are friendly and give very good customer service. Definitely a favourite in Looe

June 2021
Wonderful pub with fantastic food. The whole team there are so helpful and friendly. Excellent.
May 2021
This was the first time we'd eaten at the Sardine Factory - Four of us for an evening meal. There was ample room between tables, food was delicious - we had starters, mains and yes some of the group had puddings too. The staff were very friendly and had a great sense of humour. We would return.
October 2020
Best restaurant we visited during our stay in Looe, staff were so friendly, you can watch the chefs at work in the open kitchen and the fish was better than excellent. Location may put you off but it would be to your loss, most definitely worth the walk over to the west side.
July 2020
We made a booking and have to say, the food and service was excellent. Price was pretty good in comparison, but the location is what added to the occasion. First class.
December 2019
Great place to visit to find out the history of Looe and plenty to entertain the kids including crafts.
September 2019
Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for excellent food and service

Lovely restaurant. Great ambience and the food was well presented, with so much flavour. The waitresses were very friendly and cared so much that everything was ok. Can't recommend it highly enough.

(Less than a mile)

Former quayside warehouse, reputed to be a former haunt for smugglers and sea faring men in the 16th century. Today the Old Sail Loft is one of the top restaurants in Looe, specialising in classic/modern cuisine serving delicious steaks and fresh local fish from the quay, overlooking the pretty harbour.
The Old Sail Loft, Quay St, Looe, Cornwall, PL13 1AP (T: 01503 262131)

Fantastic location overlooking the harbour and beautiful food.
August 2021
Fabulous location, brilliant food, excellent service!
March 2019
Amazing food and service. The only thing that annoyed me was the late table. Our reservation was for 7:45 and we had to wait in the bar for half an hour before our table was ready.
May 2018
We were seated upstairs on a Thursday night around 7.45pm. The meal started well. Nice starters. Took a while for our plates to be cleared. When the mains did arrive they were tasty, but a bit on the small size. Desserts arrived before our plates had been cleared. Nobody came back after we had finished eating. Felt like we were completely forgotten about. After 25 mins or so, one of us had to go downstairs and ask for the bill. After waiting another 10-15 mins, nobody had given us the bill so we all got up and went downstairs to pay. We were told sorry, but they had been busy changing a pump, or something, on the drinks. For the prices of the food we had expected better service to be honest. We would not go back again. Either more staff are needed or some staff training is needed. It was actually very quiet by the time we were half way through our meal and we were one of the last tables to leave. So they were not rushed off of their feet. A real shame as we went there after reading some good reviews.
April 2018
Always fab food

Lookout on the Quay
(Less than a mile)
(11)
Set in an amazing location enjoying stunning riverside views, this modern cafe serves delicious local goodies accompanied by great music.
Serving breakfasts, coffees, cream teas, home-baked and gluten-free delights. Also a great place to unwind in the evening with wine/beers and nibbles, watching the sun go down.

Lovely breakfasts!! A cool little place.
February 2018
We visited a couple of times. Once for drinks on the quay - perfect view and great service. We also had tapas, which were amazing. Very tasty & reasonably priced. The owners were very friendly & welcoming.
July 2017
We have returned from a weeks holiday at Nelsons cottage in Looe. A lovely cottage and well equipped and very nicely furnished. I had a small accident whilst there which ended up having a sprained ankle, and Val (owner)was so helpful. She gave me a wheelchair and a stick, and ice packs, she also text me a couple of times to ask how I was. She even came to see me the day before we were to leave. I would would certainly stay again. If I were to have one small criticism it would be to replace the lace curtain that's damaged in the twin room, and a couple of black rubbish sacks for the bin. But that is a small thing compered to the large heart of Val. Thank you.

Looe Sailing Club
(Less than a mile)
Looe Museum
(Less than a mile)
(4)
Owned by the East Loose Town Trust, the Looe Museum is managed by a small community of volunteers, and gives a delightful insight into the history and character of the area. It’s an opportunity to develop your knowledge of the town and locality whether you’re a first time visitor or frequent tourist. They frequently house new exhibitions and take part in local events, acting as a supportive part of the community. In 2016 they celebrated the 150th anniversary of the lifeboats in Looe for example, by loaning some of its objects to the RNLI for a dedicated exhibition. Admission is £2 for adults, £1 for children, and £4.50 for families.
Very interesting and a friendly welcome. Lovely historic building
July 2021
Small museum but full of interesting artefacts. Well worth the £2 entry fee!
June 2018
Amazingly well-stocked, charming little museum, with efforts clearly made to interest both young and old. You can return as much as you like (for several months) on one ticket ... and to absorb all the information available, you may need to.
May 2018
The kids loved this compact museum especially the lady in the prison! We kept our tickets as you can return for free and they did, twice!! ????????

Looe Valley Railway Line
(Less than a mile)
(9)
Linking the bustling market town of Liskeard and the picturesque fishing port of Looe, the Looe Valley Railway Line takes you on a journey through an abundance of landscapes from heavily wooded valleys teaming with wildlife to glorious estuary views as the river meets the sea. See the river full of wading birds such as Litte egrets, Grey herons, Oystercatchers and Curlews, before stopping in Looe to explore the beaches, restaurants, shops and pubs. Take a peek at their online journey planner for prices and timetables. Dogs go free (up to two dogs per person).
beautiful line but service not very frequent
August 2022
Brilliant little railway journey. Lovely oldie Worldie station. Beautiful scenery.
July 2022
Easy to book .The train rise itself is OK but mainly through woodland so not much too see apart from trees. The walk from the train station to the town is abit of a walk about 15 minutes .The town its self is ok but seems to be for older people ie the shops are very old fashioned. Personally we would not visit again .
July 2021
Totally brilliant. Loved it
July 2021
Delightful branch line, frequent + reliable service, lovely views of estuary, woodland, bluebells ?!
June 2021
Enjoyed our train ride, but was disappointed in Liskeard, got the next train back.
September 2020
we got a group saver ticket and was very happy with the price, but unfortunately our train was due to leave at 11:10. we were sitting on the train waiting and at approximately 11:40 the driver came from his cab and apologised that the loud speakers were not working and that the train was cancelled, so we had to wait until 12:22 on a very warm train.
September 2019
Lovely little train ride alive the river, worth while. Recommend travelling to Lisgard and getting a return to Looe, much cheaper to park that way!
June 2018
a lovely short train ride through lovely scenery. Liskeard was an interesting little town to potter in for two or three hours
May 2018
The Monkey Sanctuary
(3 miles)
(1)
Not perhaps what you might expect to find in Cornwall, The Monkey Sanctuary is a delightful opportunity to learn about its 36 inhabitants, all of whom have distinct characters and personalities. An active rescue centre dealing with individuals that have often not had a very happy start to life, the priority is always their wellbeing, but it’s also an opportunity for guests to meet them and learn about the organization, explore the gardens and cultivated meadows, shop or relax in the café. There’s also a play area for children, with views of the Cornish coast. The sanctuary is closed on Fridays, but otherwise open from March to September (dates vary from year to year, so keep an eye on the website). Prices start at £8.50 per adult and £5 for children, which entitles you to entry for a whole year.
Great place they do a lot of good work for the monkeys! It’s just sad to hear some of the stories of how they were kept!
June 2018
Looe Beach
(Less than a mile)
(20)
In East Looe, the beach sits directly in front of the old town, sheltered by the Banjo Pier and overlooked from the east by the hillside of Mount Ararat. A good family beach that has something for everyone, at low tide the sandy location is safe for swimming although it’s recommended you steer clear of the river mouth beyond the pier. Unfortunately dogs aren’t allowed on this beach at any time of the year, but Hannafore beach in West Looe is dog friendly. The beach backs on to a seafront walkway which runs its length all the way to Second Beach to the east, where it tends to be less busy and it’s good for snorkeling. As it’s in the centre of the town there are lots of facilities and cafes nearby, but in the summer it’s a very popular spot and parking can be tricky, with traffic prohibited during these months, so be prepared for a bit of a walk.
Some days quite busy but great facilities and loads of activities
August 2023
Great, despite the early season seaweed, the tractor cleared it very well.
April 2023
LOVE LOVE LOVE
July 2022
All of the beaches around Looe are worth visiting - and the coastal path is a must. Fuel for the hike? Not listed in the reviews is Sarah’s Pasties which has the best pasties (we ate a lot of pasties during the week!). They were also one of the few eateries in the area which could provide something for someone needing a gluten and dairy free diet. We were able to preorder pasties that met her dietary requirements.
February 2022
Wonderful beach
December 2021
Safe and sandy beach perfect for kids
August 2021
I enjoyed the beach as it is very flat, which is important at 70, and I even had a paddle. The beach was very clean.
July 2021
One of the best beaches I have visited. It is nice and level and I was even able to have a paddle. It was very clean.
July 2021
Great beach so close all amenities
July 2021
Such a lovely beach. A shame people didn’t socially distance or even attempt to do so.
August 2020
Spent a week at new year in this beautiful apartment. Everything you could possibly need was in there. Lovely comfy bed,spotless clean and the bonus of a sea view. Central for everything. Will definitely return.
January 2020
Wonderful clean beach
October 2019
Perfect for the children but beware of seagulls. We always take a beach tent so children can safely enjoy their food and ice cream!
June 2019
Lovely beach suitable for everyone
June 2019
A wonderful place to sit relax eat an ICECREAM or a pastie, if the seagulls will let you! Perfect beach x
August 2018
You cannot fail to love Looe beach, early morning, during the day or for and evening stroll. A super clean beach.
May 2018
Lovely sandy beach. No dogs allowed but there is a small cove at the far end which allows dogs to enjoy their holiday too with a dip in The English Channel.
May 2018
Looe beach and seafront is cleaned every day (in season?) and looks good. A joy to sit and watch the sea and people passing by.
April 2018
Really good! Good sand and sea. Activities for the kids too. Difficult to get to cos no parking nearby.
August 2017
Lovely beach and even when it was busy didn't feel overcrowded
August 2017
Hannafore Beach
(Less than a mile)
(9)
Half a mile west of Looe, stretching along the coast, Hannafore Beach is a sandy, shingle bay with a rocky reef and views of St George’s Island. At low tide it’s brimming with rock pools, making it fun and games for the whole family to enjoy, and it’s a wonderful sun trap in summer months thanks to its south east facing position. Because of its location over the river, the beach never really becomes too busy, but equally there aren’t any facilities nearby. It’s popular with dog walkers as it’s amongst the few dog-friendly beaches in the area, and having explored you can extend your excursion to a stroll along the promenade or a potter around the coast path to the wonderfully scenic Talland Bay. There is roadside parking along the sea front above the beach, but it can be difficult to find a space. Alternatively, there is a large car park in West Looe, around 10 minutes away on foot.
Splendid views and dog accessible
July 2022
The best place to unwind
August 2020
Great for rock pooling
August 2020
Great fun had by our dog 'Moses'

Really nice beach and walk
June 2018
An interesting beach, but beware the incoming tide !
April 2018
Great beach. Good view of looe island. Loads of shells to collect. Lots of dog walkers tho!
August 2017
One of the many dog friendly beaches we visited lovely coastal walks to Talland Bay the nature reserve island is very interesting great refreshments available and not forgetting the free parking available all day which is very useful.
June 2017
Plaidy Beach
(Less than a mile)
(1)
A small and pleasant grey sand beach with rocks exposed at low tide, Plaidy Beach is simply a nice place to visit and take in the scenery. There aren’t any facilities, and there’s no parking nearby so it’s one to reach on foot. There’s a slipway to the beach, but you will have to access it by walking along the coast path, parking at Millendreath or Looe and it’s worth keeping in mind that it’s quite steep from both directions. Millendreath is closer and the walk should take around 20 minutes. Dogs are allowed on the beach all year round, so it’s a charming place to take them for a walk while you’re in the area.
Great to walk to at low tide on the beach or at high tide via the footpath. Great dog friendly beach.
August 2018
Millendreath Beach
(2 miles)
(1)
Millendreath Beach is a south facing beach at the foot of a wooded valley, in a sheltered cove with soft sand and lots of rock pools to explore at low tide. It’s connected to other nearby beaches by the South West Coast Path. Dogs aren’t allowed on this beach at any time of the year, and there is a reasonably sized car park a few minutes walk away. The beach is popular with families on holiday in Cornwall, and most of the surrounding area is occupied by a holiday park, so there are lot of facilities open to the public.
Fantastic beach with wonderful water sports facilities available, loved the sea kayaks!
July 2022
Talland Bay
(3 miles)
(16)
A small, quiet beach between Looe and Polperro, Talland Bay actually comprises two beaches, one of which has sand both at low and high tide and is good for swimming all the time, while the other is less sandy and is easiest to swim from at high tide. There is a ramp for launching boats from the main beach and there are lots of small coves and tidal pools to swim in as well, so it’s a delightful area to explore in the water. Parking is limited, but there is a small, free car park by the beach and paid parking at The Beach Café, all of which provide easy access to the sand. Thanks to the nearby café, visitors can also benefit from the accompanying facilities, on-site shop, and tuck into Roskillys Cornish Ice-Cream as well.
Sit in the graveyard on the bill and look down to Talland bay. Tranquillity so special. I never fail to go there when I am down. The church is beautiful so much history.
October 2023
Having spent many a happy childhood holiday here - 60 years ago, so wonderful to return. It is so beautiful and with addition of 2 Beach cafes - even better now.
June 2023
Beautiful little bay with a great cafe overlooking it. Dogs allowed on the beach Oct to end of May.....
October 2021
Although there was indeed sand in one of the bays it was largely covered with seaweed at the water's edge when we were there. All very natural.
October 2021
Lovely bay, shingle beach
September 2021
Not a great beach and a bit smelly.
August 2021
Unfortunately the seaweed on the beach made it very smelly and also lots of flies. Beautiful apart from that!
June 2021
Lovely walk from polperro along coast. Cafe in picturesque bay pretty with little huts to shelter. Only downside was the coffee not good at all.
May 2021
Beautiful bay. A little smelly from the seaweed but rock pools galore and quiet
October 2020
Very interesting beach with rock pools at low tide and fascinating multi-coloured rocks, great for photography.
October 2019
A lovely place to walk too on the way to Looe. Hard work back up the hill to polperro, bit it's worth it!
October 2018
The coastal walk from Polperro to Talland Bay is outstanding. As both are scenic, (and Talland Bay benefits from an excellent cafe and free toilets), it makes for an excellent morning or afternoon trip in good weather.
May 2018
Lovely beach,beautiful walk from Polperro. Dogs requested to be kept on leads (which I suppose is preferable to a ban!). Families seem to use this beach alot.
May 2018
An interesting beach at low tide and lovely views.
April 2018
Brilliant. Bit seaweedy. Wear beach shoes incase of weever fish stings.
