Reasons to Visit Looe
Walking
The South-West Coastal Path passes through Looe, making it the ideal starting location. So prepare for a fun day of coastal walking. From Looe, the most scenic walks follow the west coast. To Talland Bay and back is seven miles; a little further on is Polperro and back, which is close to ten miles. Both walks are through an AONB, and Polperro is a charming fishing village. For a shorter walk with children, you could try Portnadler Bay, which is four miles there and back, but it can be broken up as there are some small beaches and coves to explore along the way. If you are looking for a last-minute walking holiday with your family, Looe is the ideal place to visit. Why not make sure you get the most from your walking experience and rest your legs each evening by renting a cottage that has a hot tub?
