We had a great stay in this beautiful cottage. Great views and very well equipped. Immaculate condition throughout, comfortable beds. Really couldn’t fault it at all.
Little Oaks is the perfect little bolt hole for a week away on the Cornish south coast, if you enjoy peace and quiet. Polperro, Polruan, Seaton, Looe all with walking distance. The house is well equipped, and has a lively summer house at the rear. Perfect for us
Fantastic stay at little oak cottage, very clean, everything great, only slightly down side was the steep steps to the car park, Cornwall at its best, thank you
We have just spent a lovely week in this gorgeous cottage. It had everything we needed and was decorated beautifully. My teenager loved chilling on the decking and in the summerhouse. Location was peaceful. Enjoyed walking down to Millendreath and Plaidy beaches in the mornings. Walk into Looe along coastal path was scenic. Would recommend to friends and family.
We loved Little Oaks , the cottage was spotless and so comfortable. The decking, summer house and the views were amazing and even in April we were able to take advantage of this.
Plaidy Beach is dog friendly but beware, it is a steep walk down and even steeper coming back up!!
We really enjoyed a relaxing and wonderful week at the most beautiful cottage ever. Everything was just brilliant. Everyone we met and talked to was really friendly and helpful, the cottage cosy and charming, so we did have a great week in Looe and would have loved to stay longer. Thank you very much for letting us stay, we will definitely be back at some point.
We loved our stay on this little cottage. There was everything we needed, and more. Everything well maintained and lovely decor. And the decked area with sea view was amazing. We enjoyed indoors and outdoors. Looe was lovely place and we had many great walks.
Lovely quaint cottage beautiful deco ver clean homely and cosy . Really enjoyed the short walk to the beach although if you Jane knee or hip problems would be no good . Bonus that there is a great coastal walk of about 15/20 mins to Looe centre spa handy little spot
We loved the cottage, the location, cosy and wonderful and everyhting we needed. The balcony is perfect for the view and privacy. The only downside was it was a little small for us as we have atwo year old dog.
Very apt for couple looking for a romantic and cosy break
Little cute cottage, beauftiful Interior. Bath is a bit small. Beds are really old and Need defintly new mattresses. The Cottage is a Bit dark. But over all we liked it.
Beautiful, comfortable cottage with gorgeous view of sea from sunny summer room patio. Had everything we needed. About 12 steps from car park down to property and about same up to summer room. Loved sitting up there early morning and tea time. Path (slightly uneven ground) then steps from cottage down to Millendreath beach - lovely with sea pool. Kids loved jumping off jetty. Cafe, bar and paddle board/kayak staff are lovely. Cornish Collection staff very quick to respond, helpful and friendly. Thank you
Tolle Lage zum Strand, nur wenige Minuten und man ist direkt am Wasser. Meerblick von der Terrasse. Etwas länger zum einkaufen, nur ein sehr kleiner Supermarkt fussläufig erreichbar. Die Innenstadt und der Hafen sind in 20 Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar. Sehr ruhig.

Tolles Cottage
Leider haben wir keine Mail mit dem Code für den Schlüsselkasten bekommen und somit standen wir vor verschlossener Tür. Die Agentur ging nicht ans Telefon und die Notfallnummer war in der Wohnung.
Zum Glück war das Badezimmerfenster offen und wir konnten unsere Tochter durchs Fenster ins Haus bekommen, damit sie die Wohnung von innen öffnen konnte.
Dann die Notfallnummer angerufen, keiner abgenommen, immer weg gedrückt. Dann zig Mails geschrieben und am nächsten Tag rief jemand zurück, entschuldigte sich paar mal mit der Begründung, das eine deutsche Telefonnummer als SPAM angesehen wird und deshalb niemand ran geht, schon komisch wenn man weiß das man an eine deutsche Familie vermietet.
Ansonsten eine sehr schöne Gegend für Ausflüge. Ein Wäscheständer wäre schön und die Küchenutensilien müssten mal ausgetauscht werden, selten so stumpfe Messer vorgefunden.
Dachterasse ist sehr schön, wahnsinns Aussicht.
We hebben een goed verblijf gehad. Alles was aanwezig in het huisje. Het was er helaas niet zo schoon.
Het beeldige boven terras was ronduit smerig met heel veel vogelpoep.
De omgeving is geweldig.
Leuke cottage, met kleine tuin aan de voorzijde, maar de zee heel dichtbij (met wel een aardige klim). Prima voorzieningen in de cottage en Looe heel dichtbij. We hebben ervan genoten.
Allgemeiner Zustand ging grade so. Bad war sauber, Teppiche überall gesaugt. Staub nicht wirklich gründlich entfernt. Es klebte an manchen Stellen sehr auf den Oberflächen. Küche eine Katastrophe. Töpfe jnd Pfanne dreckig. Dunstabzug seit Monaten nicht gereinigt, voll klebenden toten Tieren und Spinnen. Geschirr nicht sauber mussten wir erst alles spülen. Wasch-Trockner naja, es hat gemuffelt, irgendwas nicht sauber in der Maschine. Terrasse ist der Clou, ein paar Stufen laut Anzeige sind 20 ungleiche und duch Dornenbüsche überwucherte steile Steinstufen, der Garten hätte dringend Pflege nötig, wenn das genutzt werden soll. Reklamationen Vorort wurden nicht beantwortet. Wäschewechsel zum Wochenwechsel erfolgte trotz Mailangebot nicht. Die Landschaft ist sehr schön, auch der Sonnenaufgang über dem Meer ist toll, aber das Haus war alles andere als wie beschrieben.
A great week's stay in a quaint cottage! Clean, characterful. Good location, close to Looe and on coastal path. There are steep steps down to property and up to decked area.
