About this property

Delightful cottage for four

VISIT ENGLAND GOLD AWARD FOR EXCELLENCENestled on the outskirts of Looe, Little Oaks is a delightful cozy retreat for up to four guests. Beautifully furnished throughout, it offers the perfect base for couples or families keen to explore Cornwall’s stunning coastline. With a private deck boasting sea views, WiFi, and parking, Little Oaks combines comfort, style, and an enviable location.Inside, you’ll find an open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area, with comfortable seating for four and a 32" Smart TV — ideal for relaxing after days by the sea. The compact kitchen is cleverly arranged and fully equipped with an electric oven, hob, extractor, slimline dishwasher, microwave, kettle, toaster, and cafetière. There is also a tabletop freezer (50cm square) and washer/dryer for added convenience. Also on the ground floor is the bathroom with bath and overhead electric shower, WC, and washbasin.Upstairs, two pretty bedrooms provide a restful retreat. The double bedroom offers a comfortable bed and plenty of storage, while the twin bedroom is charmingly styled with nautical touches, including decorative oars. A travel cot and high chair are also available for young families.Little Oaks enjoys a private decked area with glass balustrades, where you can take in lovely sea views — the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening sundowners. The deck is accessed via 20 rustic steps through the garden, leading up to a pretty summerhouse that offers a peaceful place to unwind. There is one marked parking space in the car park, plus an additional space next to the summerhouse. Close-by is Millendreath Beach, where you’ll find paddleboard and kayak hire in the summer months, along with the popular Black Rock Café & Beach Bar. Please note that the walk to the beach involves lots of steps down the steep hill. Plaidy beach is less than a 5 minute walk from the cottage (a little longer on the way back up the hill), it is a stoney beach popular with the locals. The lively harbour town of Looe, with its sandy beach, fishing boats, and choice of cafés, pubs, restaurants, and shops, is only a 5-10 minute drive or a 25 minute walk along the coastal path.One well-behaved pet is welcome.For more details on facilities and accessibility, please see the facilities tab.

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

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.

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

A lovely stay

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 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

What a lovely cottage!

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.

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 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.

Beautiful Cottage with Amazing Views

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!!

Prettig verblijf in Looe

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.

Haus in Beschreibung schön geredet

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.
