Situated on the south coast of Cornwall, Looe is a historic, picturesque, and magical fishing town with quaint old buildings, narrow twisting streets, smugglers taverns, fine restaurants and a wonderful sandy beach with shallow seas and a wealth of rock pools. Divided into East and West by a seven arch bridge and the Looe River, the main town is on the eastern side and offers a diverse range of shops, good facilities, and local amenities. The safe bay and estuary are a favourite with holiday makers as well as sailing, motorboat, and water sports enthusiasts, whilst the activities of the fishing fleet are a constant fascination to all. Looe is easily reached by the M5/A38 and is served by a scenic branch railway from Liskeard that connects through to Plymouth and from here to the rest of the UK.
