Property Details
The communities of East and West Looe lie either side of the Looe River in South East Cornwall. It is approximately twenty miles West of Plymouth and eight miles South of Liskeard. During the 18th Century, East Looe became a significant fishing port and market and through the export of mineral ores from nearby mines its quayside activity increased during the following Century. The town's economy now relies far more heavily on the tourist trade, which has seen significant growth in recent years. East Looe still contains an important fish market operating throughout the week, serving the area. It has a resident population of around 5,400. The centre of Looe is dominated by a medieval street pattern, with narrow streets and 17th, 18th and 19th Century buildings. The buildings predominately provide ground floor retail accommodation or catering facilities with residential dwellings above. The residential accommodation is used both for owner occupation, long term lettings and short-term holiday lets. The Globe Inn occupies a prominent roadside position on the approach to town and is opposite the railway station.
