Enjoy fabulous views over the coastline, access to the Coastal Path and a beach that's dog-friendly all year round. This is certainly an enviable location to explore South Cornwall's coastline.
The hotel is between the ancient harbour towns of Looe and Polperro on the South West Coast Path.
By car: 5 hours from London, 2 hours 30 minutes from Bristol and under an hour from Plymouth. Free on-site parking available.
By train: London Paddington to Looe takes around 4 hours, after which, a taxi takes 15 minutes to the hotel. Book trains to Looe.
Formerly a 16th-century house, there is a homely feeling, while the subtropical gardens create a magical element. Eclectic artworks and individually styled rooms give off a mismatched Alice in Wonderland vibe. The hotel is a delight to explore.
Expect attentive service - staff are happy to give recommendations and tips, or just have a natter. The cascading gardens provide plenty of places to relax and take in the sea views. In cooler weather, cosy up with a drink by the log fire in the lounge.

There's a focus on fish and seafood, naturally. In the summer, feast on grilled mackerel or crab salad on the terrace, and when it's cooler, devour steamed Fowey mussels and Cornish cheeses in the conservatory. The terrace restaurant has a fine dining menu. The hake, wild mushroom and oxtail dumpling was an utterly yummy treat.
