Property code: OC-L10082

Perched on a cliffside in the sought-after area of Hannafore, this superb two-bedroom property has the most wonderful views over Looe town, the bay and out to sea. Perfect for a couple or small family and up to two canine companions, this light and airy property features coastal decor throughout and includes a tiered terrace overlooking the beach and coastline.

Laid out over two floors, this property has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the views. You’ll love returning home to the bright and cheerful lounge to sink into the comfortable sofa to watch TV or read a book in the window seat – if you can take your eyes off the view! Let sleeping dogs lie in front of the feature fireplace while you prepare home-cooked meals in the fitted kitchen. Then gather the pack around the table or sit on the terrace in warm weather and enjoy your meal while drinking in those views. Toast your day with a sundowner on the terrace before taking the pups out to stretch their legs before bed, then retire to the two bedrooms for a restful sleep, ready for a new leash of life in the morning.

The picturesque fishing town of Looe makes a great base for exploring South-East Cornwall. Grab a ball and take the dogs for a morning walk on the dog-friendly beach at Hannafore Point, or sniff out adventure along the beautiful South West Coast Path, which passes through town to Polperro and Seaton. Fishing is the main industry in the town so there are lots of exciting sights and sounds to explore at the harbour, and plenty of fresh fish to be enjoyed in the many dog-friendly cafes and restaurants.

We loved this house, it is one of the best houses weve ever stayed in. Very comfortably furnished with everything we needed. The views are amazing and make the climb up the hill worthwhile.

There is a great little delicatessen/Londis behind the fire station which has the best pasties! Hide

The cottages location provides a fantastic view of Looe and the coastline towards Rame Head. It should be understood that the climb to the cottage is extremely steep and the garage is very narrow.

Lovely cottage , great views, garage just fitted my Nissan Juke. Stairs to property are not the best but worth it for the views. Didnt venture to the back of the property gardens & views due to very steep access.

We were very impressed with this immaculate property and its gorgeous views of Looe and its sandy beach. We loved walking our dogs down the the dog friendly Hannafore beach before breakfast each morning (although you do need to climb about 150 back each time). The large bed is very comfortable and of good quality. I could just squeeze my MercedesRead more C class estate into the garage which made if very convenient. It a bit of a walk to East Looe town centre but the "The best Pub in Looe" is just at the bottom of the alley leading to the town and when the tide is in the ferry saves a couple of hundred yards.

We loved our stay at Dawn End! The views were the highlight. Clean, well-equipped holiday accommodation with the bonus of parking. Garage is on the small side but we managed with a Jag XE. We liked the position on the West side of Looe - quieter and enjoyed the walks into town. We will rebook to stay here in the near future!
