About this property

Located among the quaint old streets of East Looe, Lantau Cottage is an immaculately presented Elizabethan house dating back some 400 years. It is very well equipped for modern day living yet steeped in a rich history with many original features including beamed and gabled ceilings and offer discerning guests a flavour of days long gone. With quality furniture and soft furnishings throughout, guests will appreciate the attention to detail. The house is normally let from Saturday to Saturday during the peak season but we offer long weekend breaks during other times. The house is ideally situated just a few paces from East Looe’s sandy beach, historic harbour and many cafes, bars and restaurants. It is a no-smoking property and we regret that we can't take pets. Lantau Cottage has off-site parking for 2 cars including 1 space in the beachside carkpark and one in the Millpool carkpark.

Wonderful location, cottage full of character.

Wonderful stay. Small double beds made sleeping difficult. Great location very close to beach and shops. Would 100% come again if beds could be bigger.

Mr David Baker

A property bursting with character right in the heart of East Looe. It’s tucked away in the middle of a labyrinth of old, quiet alleyways but just yards from the beach and from the busy touristy streets. The inside of the property was full of charm and very well equipped. One or two things were a bit tired but nothing to spoil our trip. All the bedding and bathroom facilities were spotless. All our communication with the host was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay there again! Thank-you!

Awesome location

Easy check in process. Great communication with owner (Who actually send back belongings left behind at the house). Near the ocean and shops and crab fishing and fishing expeditions. Would recommend to others looking for a quaint house with history and charm.

A July week in Looe

Great character home in fab location of town and beautiful safe beach. Easy walking access to everywhere, friendly town, some lovely restaurants like sardine factory, smugglers cott and the coddy shack. Family had a great time helped by 26 degree sunshine everyday.
