Welcome to Lowen House, located in the charming seaside fishing village of Looe in Cornwall, close to plenty of shops, restaurants and a pretty sandy beach.
Lowen House is a beautiful Victorian town house set in a quiet location up the hill in West Looe. It has stunning views over the estuary and up the river valley surrounded by rolling hills. The house comes with a mix of classical and modern furnishings along with a garden lounge, perfect for a barbecue or afternoon tea.
The house has three comfortable bedrooms and a fully equipped kitchen, along with a modern bathroom complete with both a walk in shower and a bath.
You can enjoy our bright lounge with comfortable sofas and views over the surrounding hills, as well as the front garden. We also have a fully fitted modern kitchen to prepare new culinary experiences from freshly caught fish, which are available from the quayside fishmongers. Other fresh local produce is also available in the town below just a 5 minutes walk away.
Equipment to make your stay more enjoyable includes smart TVs in the lounge and two of the bedrooms. Every room has wireless Bluetooth speakers that you can use to create a sound system that covers the whole house. USB plug inns are also provided in every room.
The kitchen has a dishwasher and a washing machine. An iron and ironing board are also included, as well as central heating and two fireplaces to keep away the chill in colder months.
The house has a parking space for two smaller cars or one larger SUV.
Looe has a harbour and a long stretch of a sandy beach, framed by the famous Banjo Pier, which makes it a popular destination during the summer months. There is a seafront walkway leading away from the village to a second beach complete with tide pools and good snorkelling for the more adventurous visitors. Many pubs, restaurants and cafes provide tastes for every palette, while the nearby vineyards offer tastings in high quality local artisan wines.
From the harbour, you can embark on a fishing or pleasure boat trip. The excursion to Looe Island’s bird and wildlife sanctuary is stunning. Or a ferry ride to nearby towns of Fowey and Polperro. The latter was once a thriving centre for smuggling and is now famous for a festival held in June that includes live music of many genres, dance, street entertainment, theatre and children's entertainment.
There are also numerous walks around the Looe and Polperro Heritage Coast for those who like to enjoy the nature and the beautiful views of the rugged Cornish coastline. If you're feeling energetic, you can even take on the 12-mile hike on the Coastal path all the way to Polruan, passing high above turquoise seas and white sandy beaches.
Many popular surfing and diving spots are also just a short ride away.
