ERIC REDDISH
Warm comfortable house with advantage of private parking. Lovely and cosy especially when the log burner was lit All furnishings of high quality the beds and bedding was super cosy and comfortable Close to all of Looe attractions via a couple of paths, they seemed steep the first few days but by the end of the week we were tackling them like the locals I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting to holiday in Looe.

Staying in November was a gamble for the weather and early closing. We still had a lovely relaxing family escape. The Denzell was cozy, view acros the harbour beautiful. easy acces to Looe's shops and the beach. If you don't fancy the steep hill walks, parking is straight forward. The Jolly Sailor is the best pub and everyone was so friendly. Alison was a fab host and I highly recommend this comfy house . wish we'd stayed longer

Lovely cottage, well maintained, comfortable and well equipped. Easy walking down to Looe which is very attractive, even in the rain! Bit harder walking back up again but that's why it has views. Great to have parking. Would definitely stay here again.
