Customer reviews of Penhallow
Thank you for the fantastic accommodation. Been to Looe many times and this is by far the best place we have stayed. The weather - absolutely stunning all week - spent hours in the sea at Plaidy paddleboarding and kayaking, as well as swimming. The Coast path to Looe is excellent and much better than we expected. The cars has not moved much all week and we saved a fortune on parking charges. Visited Adrenalin Quarry again and it did not disappoint. The view from the decking at the back of the apartment is sublime. Absolutely shattered now but totally content! Thank you so much - we have loved Penhallow.
The Moody & Pickford Families - August 2024
We had a lovely holiday at Penhallow. The apartment was lovely and had an amazing view and is the perfect location. An amazing stay in a beautiful part of the world and would 100% come back.
The Scotts - September 2022
Thank you for an amazing holiday. We are already planning a return visit!
Sally, Dan & Gabby - August 2022
It is so lovely to be back! We have enjoyed our stay so much, it has been a much needed oasis. I think it has been 10 years since we were last here so we really enjoyed exploring and rediscovering the area. The apartment has been superb and after a day of adventures we loved coming back and relaxing.
Anonymous - August 2022
Wonderful house, extremely well equipped, all we needed and more. Beautiful part of the world, can't wait to come back. Thank you!
The Stevenson Family - June 2022
Having use of the Annex was a bonus, as the Grandparents enjoyed their own quiet space. We loved Looe town centre. Even though the weather this week has been typically English we have managed to stay dry most of the time. We would definitely stay here again.
Emma, Andy, Harry, Trisha & John - October 2020
We have had a lovely week here in Penhallow. The apartment was lovely and clean, which reassured us during these strange times of covid. Our 9 year old son found the binoculars within minutes of being here and he loved looking at the sea view and wildlife. The daily visit from the deer was amazing. The place had everything we could ever need. The steps up to here are tiring but the sea views are worth it.
