A Weekend in Looe - The Perfect Itinerary for First-Time Visitors

From sandy beaches and harbour views to wildlife walks and coastal adventures, Looe has something for everyone. And with Tregoad Holiday Park just minutes away, you’ll have the perfect base to explore it all.

Morning
Arrive in Cornwall and make your way towards Looe. As check-in is from 4pm at Tregoad, take this opportunity to start exploring. Head straight into East Looe for a wander around the quaint streets lined with independent shops, cafés, and bakeries. Pick up a Cornish pasty for a light bite, or enjoy a coffee by the harbour as you soak up the atmosphere.

Afternoon
Spend a couple of hours at East Looe Beach. It’s a family-friendly sandy beach, perfect for a gentle introduction to the town. Walk along the Banjo Pier for iconic views across the bay and the harbour entrance.

Check in to Tregoad Holiday Park and settle into your accommodation. Whether you’re staying in a cosy caravan, luxury lodge, or a family-friendly cottage, you’ll immediately feel at home. Take a short stroll around the park’s woodland trails and wildlife lakes before dinner.

Evening
Dine at the Stargazy Bar & Grill on park, or return to Looe for dinner at a harbour-side restaurant. After your meal, unwind at Tregoad with a dip in your hot tub, or simply relax in your lodge.

Morning
After breakfast, head into Looe for a boat trip to Looe Island (St George’s Island). A nature reserve brimming with seabirds and wildlife, it’s a must for first-time visitors. If you prefer staying onshore, visit the Old Guildhall Museum & Gaol to uncover Looe’s smuggling past.

Lunch
Grab a picnic or a light bite at one of West Looe’s cafés before continuing your adventure.

Afternoon
Take a scenic walk along the South West Coast Path from Looe towards Talland Bay. Expect dramatic sea views, rugged cliffs, and fresh coastal air. If you’d prefer something more relaxed, head to Hannafore Beach for rock pooling, sea views, and a traditional Cornish cream tea.

Evening
Head back to Tregoad Holiday Park for dinner at Stargazy Bar & Grill. Round off the night with a drink on the terrace, evening entertainment, or stargazing from your lodge.

Morning
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast before checking out the quieter side of Looe. West Looe offers a more laid-back vibe with independent shops and harbour walks.

Midday
If you have time before heading home, visit Millendreath Beach or the breathtaking Lantic Bay for a final taste of Cornwall’s stunning coastline.
