5 Manor House

Overlooking the harbour and countryside from its elevated position in Looe, 5 Manor House is a 2-bedroom apartment sleeping 4. The property comes with private parking and sits a 5-minute walk from the centre of this working fishing town on Cornwall’s south-east coast. Weekly prices start from 465.

Both bedrooms are en-suite, and the kitchen is fitted in a cottage style with modern appliances. The living room connects to a private balcony with views across Looe’s harbour and the hills beyond. A shared decking area with outdoor furniture provides a second vantage point over the town. Saturday changeover applies.

East Looe Beach - a sheltered stretch of sand right in town - is 400 metres from the front door. Plaidy Beach, a quieter mixed sand-and-shingle cove, sits 0.6 miles east along the coast path. Hannafore Beach in West Looe, known for some of Cornwall’s best rock pools, is 0.7 miles away.

Looe’s harbour is genuinely active, with fishing boats heading out daily and the catch landing on the quayside. Narrow streets hold independent shops, galleries, pubs and fish restaurants. Looe Island - a Cornwall Wildlife Trust nature reserve with grey seals and nesting seabirds - is a short boat ride from the harbour. The scenic Looe Valley branch line connects to mainline services at Liskeard.

Nearby: East Looe Beach (400m) and Plaidy Beach (0.6 miles). See our Looe guide for more beaches and walks in the area.

Best for couples or a small family, with two en-suite bedrooms, a private balcony over the harbour and private parking on site. Less suited to larger groups, since the apartment sleeps four across two bedrooms only.
