With the success of the last 2 years of Looe’s very own music festival, the date has been set for this year. Check out the website, above, to find out which bands will be taking centre stage this year. Also, there are some early bird (2012 prices) up for sale at the moment – but you’ll need to be quick.
The music runs all day outdoors with stages on the beach and the Rose Garden on Fore Street, and then moves indoors into the pubs in the evenings.
Anchor Lights is offering a great deal for February and March 2013. Two nights bed and breakfast in Pengelly or Fynn for just £89.00 per couple, or £99.00 in Culliver or Fletcher. The offer runs from Monday – Thursday inclusive throughout February and March 2013.
Looe still has plenty to offer out of season.. there’s the coastal path walks, discover Kilminorth Woods, a spot of retail therapy in the shops of Looe, nearby Polperro and Fowey, everything from shopping to the maritime museum and sea park to be had in Plymouth, just 20 minutes from Looe. Looe also has some great restaurants and pubs steeped in history all offering a warm and friendly welcome. So you can do as much or as little as you wish. To book, just drop us an email or call us.
In Looe, we’re just over an hour’s drive from Truro or why not jump on our fantastic little train and take yourself off for some great shopping or you might also consider taking in a show. For details on shows, tickets, prices, etc., visit www.hallforcornwall.co.uk.
The world famous Eden Project is approximately 45 minutes drive from us here in Looe and is a very popular place with guests. But it’s not just for lovers of exotically wonderful plants and tropical rainforests, it also has its own waterfall and a lookout area high amongst the treetops. It also plays host to a seasonal ice rink and to music concerts throughout the year. For more details on events, ticket, prices, etc., visit www.edenproject.com.
Plymouth is just 20 miles from Looe and has a rich history – you can explore the cobbled streets of the Barbican and follow the footsteps of the Pilgrim Fathers, take a boat ride over the Tamar to the magnificent Grade II listed Mount Edgcumbe House and Gardens or discover the real stories behind the history on show at Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery and the Plymouth Mayflower Exhibition.

Did you know that Looe has three current TASTE OF THE SOUTH WEST Gold award winning restaurants in its midsts? Trawler’s on The Quay, Barclay House (with also has 2 AA Rosettes), The Plough at Duloe (okay… so just outside of Looe!). With Michelin star chef, Nathan Outlaw, due to open on the Quayside in Looe in Spring, it reaffirms Looe’s growing reputation as a destination venue for any foodie.
We also have other great restaurants such as Squid Ink, Mawgans, Morrells, a fab Thai – Ocean and Earth, Papa Nino’s (Italian), Zute’s (Looe’s newest eaterie – try the fantastic Cornish clotted cream creme brulee), and many more. The Courtyard is ideal for a spot of al fresco dining (does fab fish and chips).
Looe’s food and drink festival takes place on the 29th/30th June 2013. A marquee in the Millpool, overlooking the stunning East Looe River, will play host to food and drink demonstrations by local, award winning chefs and some of the best food producers and suppliers in the South West.
1st and 2nd June 2013.. The annual Festival of the Sea is hugely successful with local restaurants taking to the Quayside to serve up local fish and seafood dishes. The RNLI run demonstrations in the harbour and out at sea. And the annual , fiercely contested, anual raft race is absolutely side splitting – a must see – takes place on Sunday afternoon.
usually the last week in July.. A fun mixture of brass bands marching, fancy dress 3-legged races from West to East Looe, live music and much more.
Breaking News…
Looe’s new taxi fleet finally arrives.
Gearing up for the season ahead. It’s been a great start to the week weather-wise, crisp, clear blue sky days.. and long may it continue!
We’ve had a number of people book in on the February/March deal we’re running so that’s allowing us to gear up steadily and it’s great to welcome back repeat guests.
We’ve managed to nab a couple of ‘early bird’ tickets for this year’s Looe Music Festival (September) paying 2012 prices which is great. The line up is still to be announced but if it’s anything like the last 2 years, it’ll be great.
Also starting work on promoting TASTE South East Cornwall’s Looe Festival of Food and Drink which takes place on the last weekend of June this year very shortly. It’s a job I really enjoy doing.
