Owners really have thought about everything to make your stay perfect . Very dog friendly with treats and equipment left for our boy . Lovely sunny balcony to enjoy the sea view with comfortable furniture . Very quiet / peaceful area but only a short drive from the busier town of Looe. Book it ! Definitely a 10/10 property !

The apartment has everything you (and your fur baby) could possibly need and is very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Downderry is a lovely peaceful village with friendly locals. Itâs a very short walk to the beach for morning walkies and Seaton (with the fantastic Beach House!) is just along the beach or down the road for ice cream and pizzas. We absolutely loved our 2 weeks at the Bolt Hole. Itâs a great place to come home to after busy days exploring Cornwall or after spending a relaxing day on the beach.

Fantastic fully equipped (literally every thing thing you need!) apartment with a lovely balcony with an amazing view of the sea! Parking space for one car. Literally 1 minute walk to an amazing tapas bar, and a pub just down from there with sea views. We will definitely be going back , it felt very homely and was very quiet. Thank you!
