Choose by trip, not by star rating
East Looe puts many central streets and the beach close at hand; West Looe can suit harbour views and access towards Millpool. In either area, ask about gradients, steps, unloading and late-arrival arrangements before booking.
Questions worth asking
Confirm the exact room access, parking arrangement, cancellation terms and whether the property is a primary home, managed guest accommodation or short-term let. Never assume 'harbour view' means level access.
Book responsibly
Looe is a working community with housing pressure. Prefer established local hospitality businesses where that fits your needs, follow waste rules, and avoid blocking residential lanes.
Check before you go
No stale certainty: transport, parking, access, opening and weather change. A useful guide tells you where to check—not just what was true once.
