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.

Amazing Place To Stay

What a fab property with unreal views of Looe Harbour. From our booking to arrival Sam was an amazing host, providing a real Cornish welcome of cream tea, fruit, bread, mil, tea and coffee for our arrival. Mainsail has everything you would need including WiFi and sky, a must for any teenager. The property was spotless, we were provided with towels and plenty of tea towels too.

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 💕

About the host

Hosted by Paula Carter

Host profile image

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.

Why they chose this property

Clipper House is built into the rock, at the highest point in West Looe. Its one property split into 3 self catering holiday homes. Each unit has stunning views (which is one of the factors that made us choose it) offering panoramic views of Looe, Harbour, Estuary, Banjo Pier and then out to the sea following the coastline

What makes this property unique

We include parking in all tariffs, another USP for Looe
- Stay once and you'll be hooked , and want to board Clipper again -
