Polperro Road

Polperro Road is a 2-bedroom cottage between Looe and Polperro, sleeping 4 with 2 bathrooms. The property sits on elevated ground with wraparound decking and a garden that gives open views over the surrounding countryside. Wi-Fi, parking, dishwasher, and washing machine are all included.

Talland Bay is 1.3km from the property - a sheltered cove with a cafe above the beach and typically calm conditions good for swimming. Lekerock Cove is 1.7km, accessed via the South West Coast Path. Hannafore Beach near Looe is 4.2km by road. East Looe Beach is roughly 800 metres downhill from this elevated position.

The location sits on the Polperro Road corridor between two distinct towns. Looe is 4km to the north-east - a working harbour with shops, restaurants, and a branch railway from Liskeard. Polperro is 3km southwest, a smaller, car-free historic fishing village with a handful of pubs and galleries. Both are reachable by car in 10 minutes, and the coast path between them covers approximately 4 miles of clifftop walking if guests want to do the route on foot.

The decking and garden make outdoor eating practical in reasonable weather, and the elevated position above the valley means views rather than a street-facing outlook.

Suits: two couples or a small family wanting a quiet rural position between two coastal towns, with easy access to multiple coves without paying Looe or Polperro town-centre prices. The lack of hot tub or fire makes this less suited to off-peak breaks when outdoor sitting is limited.

Not great for: groups needing more than 4 beds, or guests who want to walk to a beach rather than drive.
