Location

Looe is a picturesque coastal town in south east Cornwall, located approximately 20 miles west of Plymouth and around 7 miles south of Liskeard. The neighbouring communities of East and West Looe sit on either side of the River Looe, connected by a historic harbour setting.

With origins as a fishing port and market town, East Looe expanded further during the 18th and 19th centuries, supported by quayside trade and the export of mineral ores from nearby mines. Today, the town centre retains much of its medieval street layout, characterised by narrow lanes and an attractive mix of 17th, 18th and 19th century buildings. Many provide ground-floor retail and hospitality uses, with residential accommodation above.

Looe's economy is now strongly driven by tourism, which has grown significantly in recent years. The town has a resident population of approximately 5,400, with the majority living in East Looe.
