About this property

Little Trevallan is a delightful, single-storey cottage, welcoming two guests resting upon the coastline in Looe, Cornwall. It’s an excellent base for exploring Cornwall’s scenic coastline with local

shops, restaurants, pubs, and a selection of beaches all within walking distance. Looe’s landscape features rolling hills—some quite steep—and narrow, winding roads that provide stunning views at every turn, making it best suited for walkers and visitors without mobility challenges. Little Trevallan offers an

open-plan living area, private parking, and a secluded decked veranda. Enter the inviting living space, where you can prepare meals, dine, and enjoy a film night in front of the Smart TV, or if you'd prefer to watch the sun set, head outdoors to the decked veranda. Upon dusk, prepare for bed in the spacious shower room, before climbing into the plush king-size bed, enveloped by storage and homely furnishings. Awaken with a stroll across Plaidy Beach, before embarking on your itinerary, whether that's visiting local eateries and following the coastal path, accessed directly from the property, to touring the Old Guildhall Museum and Goal, or trekking through Kilminorth Woods. The bustling village of Polperro is nearby with its stunning heritage coast, offering the chance to brush up on your knowledge at the Harbour Heritage Museum, or get to know the area from above at the Model Village site. Travelling north towards Liskeard, stop off at the Adrenaline Quarry for an adventure-filled day of axe throwing and coasteering, before exploring Liskeard Museum, or discovering Golitha Falls, nestled within Golitha Falls National Nature Reserve. Plan your next couple's escape to Little Trevallan.

Looe is Cornwall’s second largest fishing port and hence there is always a lively maritime bustle around the quay area of East Looe, which is connected to the quieter West Looe by a seven arched 19th century bridge over the River Looe. You can also catch the river taxi between East and West Looe. East Looe has narrow cobbled streets, twisting alleyways and plenty of tourist shops, whilst West Looe has a lovely outlook across the harbour. Looe’s viewpoint, Banjo Pier, can be reached from the quay and is a great spot to watch the returning fishing trawlers and look across the bay to Looe Island, which can be walked to occasionally at very low tides. The sandy Looe beach adjoins the pier and is very popular with families because of its safe shallow swimming and vast expanse of sand. There is also a great rock pool area at Hannafore that children will love. West Looe has a Heritage Centre that recently opened in the Old Sardine Factory with a climbing wall and a cafe and the delightful Kilminorth Woods have way marked walks through the majestic oak wood, rich in plant, insect and bird life. Apart from beach activities in this part of south east Cornwall, there are many mining remains on Bodmin Moor and in the Tamar Valley and much of the mining landscape has World Heritage status. This area of Cornwall has inspired writers, such as Daphne du Maurier and much of Bodmin Moor has inspired legends linked with King Arthur. There is much to explore in this beautiful part of Cornwall.

    Great for walking the coastal path. Within easy reach of many places to visit.

    It also should mention that entering the property from the lane is steep and the lane is very narrow
