Watergate offers a peaceful retreat for guests, but within easy access of beaches, harbours and sheltered coves. Picturesque walks right on the doorstep. Looe only half hour/forty five minute stroll through the woods, or canoe along the river at high tide.
Talland Bay and Polperro are worthy of an amble along the coastal path with spectacular views. This area is rich in bird-life with kingfishers, herons, buzzards, egrets and many more.
For those who enjoy star gazing this is a perfect location due to clear skies the Milky Way is visible from the garden with the naked eye.
Looe has a good selection of small shops in particular an excellent fresh fish shop right by the market on the quay.
