The Gulls - Looe
A family run informal guest house with eight en-suite rooms. Stunning sea and river views.
A warm welcome awaits you at The Gulls, a small family-run hotel nestling on West Looe hill. We are situated opposite East Looe Beach which gives us unrivalled panoramic views of East and West Looe, the harbour, Looe river and Atlantic Ocean and the spectacular Cornish coastline sweeping round to Rame Head.
We are a ten to fifteen minute walk away from East Looe town centre. You can either stroll along the river footpath and then walk over the bridge into town or take the short ferry crossing over Looe River when the tide is in.
We have so many activities to see and do nearby including golf, horse-riding, canoeing, surfing, and swimming. If gardens are your bag then you’re in the right county. Cornwall has many stunning and award-winning gardens for you to visit and admire throughout the year. Why not fish from the end of Banjo Pier opposite the Hotel or take a boat trip round to Polperro on the ‘Smugglers’ cruise and then walk back on the South West Coastal path. If you fancy trying your hand at diving then the renowned Looe Dive Centre will be on hand to provide tuition and advice. If you want the shopping experience then look no further than Plymouth City Centre just 20 miles away with the Drake’s Circus shopping centre recently opened you can be sure of a 21st Century shopping experience. While in Plymouth you could visit the National Marine Aquarium which boasts the largest fish tank in Europe and take in a show at the Theatre Royal. All this, plus many other attractions means you are spoilt for choice during your visit.
We have a selection of twin, double, single or family bedrooms. All are equipped with colour television, hospitality trays, luxurious toiletries, hairdryer, clock alarm radio and most have either sea or river views.
Within the hotel you will find a comfortable lounge with satellite colour television and cosy sun lounge area where you can just relax and watch the world go by.
Our dining room overlooks the beach and we offer a choice of full Cornish or continental style breakfasts which will set you up for the day. There are many fabulous restaurants, cafes and Inns in Looe but we also provide a very tempting menu of home-cooked food in the evenings for those guests that have had a packed day and just wish to unwind at the Hotel.
If you wish you can dine al fresco on the terrace, weather permitting.
We have carried out many improvements to the establishment including re-decoration and installing new very comfortable beds. But don’t just take our word for it – ring and book a break – you’ll be glad you did!
