Vacation Rental Description
Perfect for two, perfect for five, and everyone in between!   
 Tuc-Tin is a wonderful character filled fisherman's cottage renovated in 2006, we have retained all the character and charm and added lovely things like a shower bath and essential dishwasher! 
Tuc-Tin is in the heart of the thriving sea-side town of East Looe on the south coast of Cornwall. It is set in the old part of the town, down a quiet lane, with a flower pot filled alley outside the back door. From the bright blue front door it is only 200m to the beautiful sandy beach and newly paved promenade and only 200m the other way to the fishing boats on the quay, restaurants and shops. This is the perfect setting for a holiday where, if you don't want to drive further, stop here!  
The front door takes you straight into the cottage. Slate tiles throughout the ground floor are typical of Cornwall. There are two lovely leather sofas with lots of cushions.  
To the front a stylish wood slat blind gives privacy and sumptuous gold and blue Monkwell curtains give luxury and glamour. Central heating throughout the cottage means you can enjoy this gorgeous cottage at any time of year. A flight of winding stairs leads from the living room upstairs to floor twin bedroom. There is a radiator in each room for extra winter warmth. Up a further steep flight of stairs brings you to double bedroom. Also on the top floor is a single bedded room with 3' single bed. The huge sandy beach is fantastic for sunbathing and sand castling. There are no dogs allowed at any time of the year so you know your children are safe with their buckets and spades. There is a cafe right by the beach so you don't need to walk far for a cuppa, ice-creams, chips and other snacks. In the summer hire deck chairs and wind-breaks on the beach and let the kids go on the trampolines. Parking - There is a pay and display car park in the centre of town and another just over the bridge (£22 per week in Summer 2008). Accommodation: Ground floor, Open plan living room and kitchen , dining table. TV with digital receiving box and DVD player. Electric oven, hob and extractor, fridge, washer/dryer, microwave, dishwasher, toaster and kettle. Due to the steep stairs this cottage is not suitable for anyone who finds steps difficult. The cottage sleeps up to five. Babies are very welcome but it will be a squeeze with only the twin room able to site a travel cot which you will have to bring, as one is not provided. First floor - Twin bedded room with two 3' single beds (pocket sprung mattresses). Bedside tables, and hanging hooks. TV/Video, digibox. 
Bathroom fitted with showerbath, WC and wash-basin. Full length mirror. 
Second floor - Double bedroom with 5' Queen size double bed (pocket sprung mattress), and remote TV with DVD and digibox. Chest of drawers. Built in wardrobe. Hairdryer.  
Single bedroom with 3" single bed, with pocket sprung mattress, suitable for an adult, chest of drawers, and hanging hooks. Outside - there is no garden, although outside the back door is a pretty flowerpot filled alley in which you can hang wet bathing suits, leave buckets and spades and take a chair and small table for a sunny cup of coffee. 
 Facilities and services:Inclusive electricity and Gas central heating thermostatically controlled though out. Inclusive of all bed linen. 
Due simply to the logistics of laundering towels enough for 5 people YOU MUST BRING YOUR OWN TOWELS. (Don't forget ones for the beach too!) No smoking in the cottage. No pets. Arrive after 3pm/Depart by 10am Saturday winter breaks by arrangement. Nearest sandy beach 200m. Nearest restaurants 50m. Town centre and shops 300m. Cash point 400m. Post Office.

  • Owner Location Comment
    East Looe is a beautiful fishing town located on the South Coast Path in Cornwall. It has a huge variety of shops, restaurants and pubs from which to choose, as well as the essentials, Post Office, supermarket, banks and chemist. There is a train station on the edge of the town, within easy walking distance of this entire small town. The Looe Valley Line has been running trains to and from Liskeard for 150 years and they run regularly all year round, Liskeard is on the Plymouth to Penzance line so you can holiday in Looe by train.
    The huge sandy beach is dog free all year and swept almost daily in summer by a tractor, making it very safe for children. It is large even at high tide but at low tide there is plenty of hard sand for playing cricket/football and other beach games on.
    The quayside is ideal for crabbing and there are plenty of seaside shops providing equipment for all seaside activities. Fishing trips for shark and mackerel can be taken from the quay, also sightseeing round Looe Island or on the glass bottomed boat can be taken. Tides allowing there is a ferry from East to West Looe (an easy walk even if the tide is out) and the ferry to Polperro can be taken from East Looe Quay.
    The town Museum is a small but interesting collection of artifacts located in the most ancient building which was formerly prison cells.
    The lifeboat station in East Looe often has it's large door open and the lifeboat is maintained daily. It is located next to an RNLI shop.
    The famous 'Banjo' pier, so named because of it's unusual shape protects the river inlet and the beach. The river is tidal and at low tide you can walk on the exposed river bed.
    On the quay local fishing boats still unload daily and there is a thriving wet fish warehouse distributing fish in vast quantities. The fishing boats don't mind spectators when they come in and they are usually accompanied by a flock of seagulls cleaning up any scraps thrown overboard.
    The town council is very active so the town is maintained with flowers and superb management all year round.
    At New Year there is a FANTASTIC display of fireworks from the Banjo pier which attracts many thousands of people from all over the country. The town is packed with fancy dress clad revellers and it is a very exciting affair. Watching the fireworks from the beach and promenade is a wonderful experience.
    The local pubs host live music, quizzes and other activities. There is never a shortage of things going on!
    Looe looks forward to welcoming you, please visit soon!
