Tucked away in the port town of Looe in Cornwall, is this lovely third-floor apartment, Smugglers Loft.

Enjoying a superb location in the town centre just moments away from East Looe Beach and offering stunning quayside views, Smugglers Loft is a fabulous dwelling for couples or a family of three.

Leave your vehicle in the car park under the apartment block, before climbing the stairs up to your new home-from-home.

Step into the contemporary open-plan living space, where you can look forward to whipping up mouth-watering meals in the well-equipped kitchen, featuring a handy dishwasher, ready to enjoy at the dining table for four over a crisp bottle of wine, courtesy of the wine chiller.

Relax in the spacious sitting room, with exceptional riverside views, where you can relax on the generous corner sofa and select a much-loved film from the TV as the evening’s entertainment.

As your eyes grow heavy, retire to one of two well-presented bedrooms, a double and a single, both with charming nautical touches harking to the property’s superb location.

In the morning, wake-up with a refreshing shower and a steaming cup of coffee over a hearty breakfast at the breakfast bar for two, before heading out to explore.

A plethora of pubs, cafes and restaurants lie on your doorstep, including The Plough On The Quay, The Old Sail Loft and The Fish Market, where you can sample local and freshly caught seafood with views overlooking the East Looe River as you dine.

Pack-up your bathing suits, swim trunks and towels and head straight for the glorious sands of East Looe Beach, where you can beachcombe the shores, tuck-in to fresh and chips or go for a swim.

Other activities within the town include the Old Guildhall Museum & Gaol, Banjo Pier where you can watch the local fisherman return with their catches of the day and walks through the delightful Kilminorth Woods.

Join the South West Coast path where you can expect some of the best scenery and views in the area, and make your way towards the breath-taking National Trust site of Lantic Bay, with rugged headlines and coves peppering the shores waiting to be explored.

Venture further afield to the market town of Liskeard, where the budding historians in your group will delight at the attractions of Liskeard Museum, Stuart House and Trewithian Manor, or if that isn’t your thing, why not enjoy a leisurely stroll through the picturesque Moyclare Cornish Garden or take the short drive over to Adrenalin Quarry to try your hand at zip wires, a giant clifftop swing and coasteering! Whisk your loved ones away for a memorable stay at Smugglers Loft.
