Absolutely amazing plenty of space for everyone overlooking the River plenty of action to see all the fishing trips going out and the Looe Fishermen intriguing enjoyed every minute
Our teenage children loved Teglios with its spacious living area at the top and hotel style bedroom underneath.
The pool table was a big hit, we all had to play after supper every night!
I just loved looking out of the windows at the passers by, watching the boats coming up and down the estuary and the gulls adventures.
Great fish and chips, fab pasties and yummy ice creams. Some interesting shops dotted amongst the charming old fishing streets by the beach.
Perfect!
A perfect gift for all the family - A property with all the amenities to cook a Christmas dinner for 8 people and enough space and activities to ensure we didn't need to leave the building. We would definitely recommend and use again. Thank you.
Recommended already to family and friends .
Our little group of “7 Silver tops” all enjoyed their stay, no complaints from anyone really, and we do have some “picky ones” amongst us
Thank you for a great and well equipped break.
Very clean and spacious apartment, brilliant location.
Very nice holiday resort.

Fantastic central location.
Superb location overlooking the estuary. Beatifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Everything you need is supplied and if there is anything else the shops are on your doorstep.
The parking space is essential as all the spaces in town are allocated and the car park as you enter town is always very busy. We had a brilliant stay and would highly recommend it!
