A very homely and beautifully presented guest house. Very friendly staff and amazing breakfasts. Would definitely return but maybe ask for room on first floor as tricky dragging case to third floor. Easy walking distance to bars and restaurants. Great for those wanting to walk coastal footpath.

The breakfasts were fabulous, as was the wonderful view from our window. Colin and Liz were friendliness itself, and attended to all our needs. The only thing we didn’t like was beyond their control - the horrible noise from motorcyclists on Saturday night.

Great place for a couple of days, great view from property over estuary and boats, only one problem was the stairs to the top floor, nightmare with all the bags checking in, (young mans game) not for the infirm.

A little gem

Lovely situated hotel with an amazing breakfast and friendly hosts. Great location and just a 2 minute walk over the short bridge to lots of restaurants, shops, cafés and bars. It was really quiet and the mattress was so comfortable. We ate at Papa Nino one night and had a fantastic meal so thank you Colin and Liz for providing suggestions. It was a 3 minute walk to an allocated parking space so no trouble at all. It was easy to use the unloading bay on the Quay to pop the bags up the small slope to the hotel door. Great views too.

Charming Stay in a Quaint Harbour View Hotel

We were warmly welcomed by Colin, the friendly and helpful host, who provided clear directions for parking and explained the access to the building, as the reception is unmanned. The hotel itself was of an older style, featuring low doorways which caused minor inconveniences as we occasionally bumped our heads. The rooms, while small and a bit chilly, were clean and equipped with en-suite bathrooms. Despite being somewhat cramped, the room offered a fantastic view of the harbour. Our mornings started with a freshly cooked, well-presented breakfast that met our dietary preferences, complete with fresh coffee refills from our host. The dining area boasted a breathtaking view of the River Looe. The hotel also included a unique 'honesty bar' with a selection of drinks and enjoyable music, adding to the overall pleasant ambiance. Despite some minor issues, we found our stay enjoyable overall due to the excellent service and charming surroundings. We would definitely consider staying again.

A perfect stay.

We absolutely loved our stay and reckon the Old Bridge House is probably the best B&B in Looe. Our room was attractive, not very large but cosy and very clean, with a marvellous view of the harbour. The shower was super and the en suite bathroom well appointed. Our hosts were most welcoming with tea and cake, and looked after us well throughout our week. Superb breakfasts, although too much for me at times, but a wonderful choice, with an amazing array of fruit at the buffet, and delicious cooked dishes as well. And we loved Looe as well, and will be back we hope, to stay at the Old Bridge house again. Thank you to liz and Colin.

Perfect location in Looe

We stayed here for 2 nights and had a lovely time. The views over the water are beautiful and the guesthouse is only a short walk over the bridge for local shops, pins and restaurants. The room itself had everything we needed and as others have described, the breakfast is very tasty - made even better with the view. Although there is no parking on site, we were able to drop bags off outside and were provided with a permit for the local car park which is only a minute away Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend
