Ivydene

Ivydene is a 4-bedroom, dog-friendly Victorian cottage in Looe sleeping 8. The bedroom layout is 2 king-size rooms (one en-suite), a twin room, and a bunk room, served by 2 bathrooms in total. Original period features - fireplaces, bay windows, and high ceilings - run throughout the house, and the decked terrace has outdoor furniture for group dining.

East Looe Beach is 500 metres away on foot, making this one of the more accessible beach-edge cottages in the town for larger groups. Looe itself has a working fish quay, a busy harbour, and a twice-weekly market. Plaidy Beach is 1.1km for a quieter stretch, and Hannafore Beach is 1.2km. The South West Coast Path is accessible within half a mile for walking toward Fowey in one direction or Seaton Beach in the other.

Up to 2 dogs are accepted. WiFi, a dishwasher, and a garden are included. The property is also accessible for guests with mobility requirements. Rated 4.7 from 15 reviews. Best for multi-generational groups who want a town-centre base with beach access on foot and room for a range of ages. Less good for couples or pairs who would find the scale and town-centre setting more than they need.

The accessible layout, combined with the bunk room, means the house caters for guests at both ends of the age range - grandparents with mobility needs and young children both have suitable sleeping and ground-floor arrangements. The decked terrace with outdoor furniture provides a social space outside without needing to venture into the town.
