Fine Elizabethan house in Looe's old town very close to the beach and harbour
About this house rental
Located among the quaint old streets of East Looe, Lantau Cottage is an immaculately presented Elizabethan house dating back some 400 years. It is very well equipped for modern day living yet steeped in a rich history with many original features including beamed and gabled ceilings and offer discerning guests a flavour of days long gone. With quality furniture and soft furnishings throughout, guests will appreciate the attention to detail. The house is normally let from Saturday to Saturday during the peak season but we offer long weekend breaks during other times. The house is ideally situated just a few paces from East Looe’s sandy beach, historic harbour and many cafes, bars and restaurants. It is a no-smoking property and we regret that we can't take pets. Lantau Cottage has off-site parking for 2 cars including 1 space in the beachside carkpark and one in the Millpool carkpark.

A property bursting with character right in the heart of East Looe. It’s tucked away in the middle of a labyrinth of old, quiet alleyways but just yards from the beach and from the busy touristy streets. The inside of the property was full of charm and very well equipped. One or two things were a bit tired but nothing to spoil our trip. All the bedding and bathroom facilities were spotless. All our communication with the host was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay there again! Thank-you!

Easy check in process. Great communication with owner (Who actually send back belongings left behind at the house). Near the ocean and shops and crab fishing and fishing expeditions. Would recommend to others looking for a quaint house with history and charm.

Great character home in fab location of town and beautiful safe beach. Easy walking access to everywhere, friendly town, some lovely restaurants like sardine factory, smugglers cott and the coddy shack. Family had a great time helped by 26 degree sunshine everyday.

Lovely characterful old house and very well-equipped, and it was in a very good position in Looe near the beach. Beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of kitchen and eating equipment for large parties so we could just fill the dishwasher during the day and put it on at night. There were only 6 of us in the end due to Covid restrictions so we had plenty of space to spread out. For 9 adults there are certainly enough beds, but would be a bit tight to all eat at the table or sit in the living area at the same time. Some other properties had a bench or cafe table and chairs outside and that would be a good addition on the Lower Chapel Street side, which catches the sun.

We had a lovely week in this delightful and well maintained cottage which slept 9. A bit on the tight side downstairs if fully occupied but great for a family.
Shame about the seagulls - the noise and the mess!

Myself, my family and friends all stayed in Lantau Cottage in August. The cottage is in a perfect location, a stones throw from the beach and all the shops and restaurants. The cottage itself is so cute and comfortable and the joining instructions were clear and helpful. The owner himself was very kind and friendly too in all our correspondence. We would recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in the beautiful town of Looe.

Right where you want to be. You are already where others park a good distance away to get to and this is the great benefit. The house is just history and hundreds of years of it. Quite wonderful.

Once again we enjoyed a lovely holiday as a family spanning three generations! The property is excellently located being of equal distance to the beach and harbour, both only a short walk away. The cottage itself has absolutely everything you need including a new kitchen which is a real plus. All in all, a really lovely holiday was had by all !

We have had a great time in Looe and the prime location of this property in the heart of the old town and near the sea has been perfect. Property is very well refurbished which gives a very comfortable holiday. We all slept well and it was nice to hear the seagulls in the morning. Youngest daughter decided she wants to live here - a perfect holiday home.
