Fabulous apartment overlooking Looe. Very well equipped accommodation with a garden to sit out and enjoy the views. Warm welcome from owner who was only a text away from any help/information we required during our stay. Would recommend this property to anyone wishing to visit the lovely seaside town of Looe

Very comfortable, homely and clean

We stay at the Mainsail multiple times every year and it is just like returning home. The management of the property is faultless and we are always made to feel extremely welcome; nothing is ever too much trouble. Looe is also a lovely place to stay with lots to do in the town, and other little villages are easily accessible too so please explore. I am always sad to leave and start planning the next visit by the time I get home.

Lovely week in Looe

Great flat. Great views. Friendly host (scones, clotted cream, jam and loaf of local bread on arrival). The flat also has a smart tv so netflix etc is available and also a full sky package (including movies and sports). We love Looe and will be coming back and will (hooefully) come back to "Mainsail"

Clipper house accommodation

Have just had a lovely weekend staying at the clipper house. We stayed in the mainsail apartment. The apartment was spotless and had everything we needed and even had tea/coffee, milk. The views over Looe Bay are stunning. Paula was very helpful and was there to greet us on arrival, she even had flowers for us for our friends wedding anniversary, which we thought was a lovely touch. Would highly recommend this accommodation and we will definitely be returning hopefully in the summer.

Stunning view

The view is stunning, it really made the holiday. The apartment was spotless and had some really lovely touches such as scones, clotted cream and jam to welcome us. Sam was a perfect host and greeted us with a smile despite us arriving later than planned. The whole flat was well stocked and a good size for the 4 of us. A car parking spot was a massive bonus and also despite being up high there is a short cut to the town. All in all I would definitely recommend this property!

First Class as always

The Management of this accommodation is superb, nothing is ever too much trouble. You feel at home as soon as you walk in the door and the little touches like a welcome pack are so lovely and thoughtful. We holiday here at least 4 times a year and each time is a joy. I am always sad to leave. The apartments are always clean and extremely comfortable. Looe town itself is so charming, each time we go we discover more to this beautiful place and can see us going back for many years to come; I have utterly fallen in love with all it has to offer 💕

Amazing place

This is the most amazing little flat! The views are incredible from the lounge, Kitchen, and large bedroom. The view from the double bedroom is of the river and still lovely. We were met by Sam who showed us all we needed to know - including the shortcut walk into town. It is fairly steep in places so may not suit those with mobility issues, but it is worth the climb if you can make it. Literally everything in this apartment is perfect - from the goodies left by Sam, to the parking underneath the house. The only downside to our stay was that it wasn't long enough - we will be back to make up for that!!

Wow, what a view!!!

Mainsail is a lovely, well kept apartment with stunning views. We spent hours just sat on the private balcony overlooking the estuary and beach watching the tide come in and go out! Light and airy, Mainsail has good sized rooms and literally everything you need is provided. Paula and Phil were great hosts going above and beyond. When we got stuck in traffic on the way down, they were even there to greet our food delivery and were happily carrying our wine order up the stairs. We had the most amazing break and we even extended our stay by an extra night because we loved the place so much.

A very clean apartment with spectacular views overlooking Looe harbour.

This is our second visit to the Mainsail apartment. We are a family of five with two small dogs. Once again Sam welcomed us with a cream tea, fresh bread & juice and also fresh flowers in the apartment. Attention to detail with the little touches mean so much. Everything you need for self catering is already provided. Fresh bedding, towels including the use of white goods. This lovely apartment looks out over the harbour and river. Perfect for watching the sunrise in the morning and the shooting stars at night. A beautiful and relaxing location. I would recommend this Clipper House and the apartments to all. Samuel is very quick to respond to any queries that you may have regarding Clipper House and the apartments.

A little piece of Cornish Heaven

We have stayed at The Mainsail and The Crows Nest many times, its like a home from home. Sam always makes the accommodation spotless and his finishing touches like a welcome pack is always gratefully received. We have never had a problem with any of our visits but know that Sam would do everything in his power to ensure any issues were resolved to ensure we had the best stay possible. Looe is delightful; there are so many cafes, restaurants and pubs within a 10 minute walk to the centre and there are other places within a short drive that are worthy of a visit too if you do not want to use the car too much. We have dogs and everywhere is dog friendly, there is a beach next to the main one and a short walk from Clipper House is Hannafore beach also. There is a kiosk and a tea shop by the tennis club that sells refreshments so you can enjoy 'a cup of tea by the sea'. You will thoroughly enjoy your time here, I can't wait for our next visit.

We fell in love with Looe, having never been to Cornwall before, 2016. We originate from East Sussex & relocated in 2019
Phil and I have worked many years in hospitality, property, sales and marketing.
Ryan our son left us to go to University in Manchester & we hunted for the perfect holiday home for guests to enjoy - it's taken time but, we know we have, here at Clipper House.
It's a unique property with The Best Views in Looe.
- It was a hotel previously and was later owned by Dawn French, whom we purchased it from.
We are now taking it to the next level, we look forward to welcoming you.

What makes this property unique

We include parking in all tariffs, another USP for Looe
