Looe Coastal Retreat is a new luxury holiday lodge park situated at Oaklands Park, close to the Cornish resort of Looe.
Cornwall’s south coast is known for its mild climate and the sheltered bays around Looe and Polperro are some of the best.
These two mini resorts of character are brilliant places to visit time and time again – an ideal location in which to buy a holiday home or lodge. Oaklands Park is mid-way between Polperro and Looe. Beaches are only a mile and a half from the park.
Polperro is traffic-free – you park in a car park by the entrance to the village, and meander, past the quaint whitewashed cottages and little shops, down to a pretty, tiny harbour. Polperro is an ancient fishing village – and fish is still landed here – but it’s much more, in terms of a leisure destination, because it’s so quaint and because so many interests are amid its narrow streets. Galleries, pottery, jewellery, all manner of enticing crafts, plus places to snack and places for meals. Polperro, it could be said, is a microcosm of Cornwall, crammed into one beautiful village that’s interesting enough to merit many visits.
Looe is larger. In fact Looe is two towns, East Looe and West Looe. One is largely residential, the other is the main fishing port. Fish is landed here in quantity and there is a fish market on the quay. Browse among the shops in the ancient buildings, grab lunch, perhaps (there are plenty of places from which to choose) and make your way to the beach, at the far end of the town. Here, Looe becomes a proper resort – in miniature. Yet it’s also a major fishing port and thriving town – those three elements combine to create a lovely destination good for many repeat visits.
