Gypsy

Gypsy is a two-bedroom detached bungalow in Hannafore, West Looe, sleeping two guests across two bathrooms. The cottage sits just off the seafront promenade with partial sea views and private parking at the front - single-level throughout, with accessibility features. It holds a 9.4/10 rating from 75 guest reviews.

Two bedrooms give flexibility for guests who occasionally bring a visiting friend; the layout suits couples rather than groups of four. Wifi and a washing machine are included. Dogs are welcome. The enclosed garden adds outdoor space beyond the main terrace.

Hannafore promenade is a short walk away, where rock pools and small sandy pockets open up at low tide. The South West Coast Path heads west from here towards Talland Bay and on to Polperro. Looe town centre is a 15-minute walk east along the seafront and over the Victorian bridge - the long sandy beach at East Looe is in the town. Looe Island, a Cornwall Wildlife Trust nature reserve with grey seals and nesting seabirds, runs boat trips from the harbour in summer. Hannafore has a bowls club, pitch and putt, and tea rooms with harbour views.

Best for: couples with a dog wanting accessible, single-level accommodation within walking distance of Looe town centre and the coast path. Less good for: larger groups - the two bedrooms sleep two, not four.
