We booked a last minute 3 night break at the Sand Dune apartment in Looe. Paul was very accomodating when we were making our booking especially as we had to change the dates of our stay at the last moment. Arthur was also really helpful when we arrived and came round to help us with the hot water/heating within 5 mins of giving him a call at 9:30pm (Thank you Arthur!)
The apartment is in an excellent location with everything on your doorstep, the beach, the pier, pubs, shops and restaurants. It was also a lovely place to get back to quickly when Looe just got a bit too busy with so many visitors (once we left the car, we felt like locals!) We found everything we needed in the aprtment, The free Wifi was a nice extra that we made use of and had excellent mobile phone reception on O2..
The local Chinese takeaway was excellent value for money & quality of food (there are a couple in Looe - the better one is nearer the flat, and is a takeaway only, not a restaurant). We also ate at one of the quayside restaurants where the seafood was very good. You must book on a weekend though as they get very busy.
Overall Looe was an excellent destination - once we arrived, we didn't actually go back to the car until it was time to go home. The flat was like a home from home and we had exactly the getting away from it all break we were after! We have already recommended it to frends.

Lovely apartment, great holiday

The photos and the description on the homepage give you a good idea about the flat:The Sand Dune is a cosy, nice and clean apartment , only a stonethrow away from the harbour and the beach and yet situated in a quiet little road. Looe is the perfect location for trips around Cornwall: Minack-Theatre, St. Mawes, Mousehole, The Eden Project, Newquay...the list of Cornwall's attraction is long. Don't miss a walk along the coast path to Polperro. or a cruise along the coast in Mevagessey. Apart from the fact that the wifi didn't work properly everything was fine.We can't recommend any restaurants in Looe because Pengelly's first-class fishmonger at the harbour offers everthing you need for a delicious fish dish and the kitchen in the Sand Due is very well equipped. As non-native speakers we didn't manage to pay the car park by mobile phone,but you can get your money changed at the amusement park nearby.
Many thanks to Paul, he provided all the information we needed and contacted us during our stay.

We had a wonderful holiday in Looe and Sand Dune was the perfect place to stay. It was just as we expected - clean and tidy and a stones throw from the beach. We walked to Polperro and back which was a lovely walk (our feet told us we should have got the bus back!). There were wonderful places to eat - The Old Sail Loft is a must but be sure to book as it was even full on a Monday night out of season. We ate in Ye Olde Salutation Inne on 4 of the 7 nights as the atmosphere was so nice and the food was tasty and very reasonably priced - the Doom Bar beer was pretty good too! We would recommend this property as the perfect place for a very relaxing holiday.

Sand Dune provided us with everything we wanted during our week in Looe. The apartment was comfortable, clean and well equipped. The photos here are very accurate.
Looe itself is a lovely town with plenty of shops, restaurants, pubs and cafes. It is also a good place to visit the rest of Cornwall from - the Eden Project is about a 45 minute drive and Newquay is less than 1 hour.
Although there is no parking near the apartment, it is only a 15 minute walk to the carpark and it is very easy to buy a weekly parking permit (we did this over the phone) which is now £29.
We will definately be recommending Sand Dune and Looe to friends and family.

We've just got back from a four night stay at the Sand Dune apartment, and had such a lovely time, we would thoroughly recommend it! The apartment is as cute as pie, had everything we needed and was in such a great spot - the weather was great (such a treat for April) so to be able to sit on the beach but pop back to the apartment to get a drink or sandwich (or use the loo!) within about a 20 second walk was fabulous..... No problems at all, loads of information from Paul beforehand, it was just great!

What can I say? What a delightful bijou palce to stay, centrally located,
clean, loved all the towels.....what a comfortable bed, well equipped,
loved every minute of it. We had great weather, walking on Bodmin Moor
Saturday, Sunday we walked in t-shirts and shorts to Polperro, lunch at
the Crumplehorn and back on the local bus...plus 2 sightings of Richard
Madley! An evening meal at the Sail Loft was amazing, the fish and local
cheese were exceptional. Can't wait to return and make it a regular
birthday trip in October..missing the cream teas already.

1 week in October 2010
Appréciation envoyée: 18 octobre 2010

We loved this apartment! It's clean, comfortable, adequately equipped and in a brilliant location! It's close to a range of interesting local shops, supermarket, the quay, beach and cracking coastal walks. Not to mention some excellent restaurants and pubs!
It is expensive to park in the main car park for a week (£25) but a price we were willing to pay considering the beautiful surroundings and the lovely historic buildings of Looe.
Everyone we met was friendly and made our stay even more enjoyable....including the apartment's owners - Paul and Sarah! They just happened to be there one day and gave me a guided tour of the apartment below the Sand Dune - this was very nice too! I would recommend both apartments to anyone!
Oooops! We forgot to write in the visitor's book - but hopefully Paul or Sarah could print this out and stick it on one of the pages...we had a brilliant time...in a brilliant apartment ...in a brilliant place!

Sand Dune Apartment
Appréciation envoyée: 12 avril 2010
Date de séjour: mars 2010
The apartment is compact, comfortable and very well equipped with more than enough towels and bedding, as well as tea, coffee and sugar. The position is superb, quiet and secluded and within minutes of the sea, the harbour and restaurants and shops.
The only disadvantage is the parking which is expensive and involves a 10 minute walk, great if the weather is kind but too far in gale force winds and pouring rain.
Anyone planning to eat in the top four recommended restaurants should book well in advance. The Trawler came highly recommended but unfortunately was booked out during our short stay.

Sunny September in Looe
Appréciation envoyée: 6 octobre 2009
Date de séjour: septembre 2009
We recently in Sand Dune in September and had a wonderful stay. The apartment was small but perfectly formed with everything we could possibly need for a short stay. The fact that it was so very close to the sea front was a big plus with everything we needed on our doorstep.
Amazingly the weather was fantastic for such a late summer stay, and so we made the most of it by using Looe as base to explore much of Southern Cornwall. Our favourite place was definitely Fowey and wish we had had longer to there, but unfortunately we were paying for parking and so only had a short stay. In fact, parking in Cornwall was a sticking point as there seems to be nowhere that is free anywhere!
The caretakers at the apartment were extremely helpful, especially when the digital changeover took place when we were there, and Paul was always keen to check that everything was satisfactory. The only quibble would be the fact that the wifi connection was weak and didn't work very often, but this is a minor point.
Overall we would thoroughly recommend the Sand Dune apartment to anyone.
