    We liked the cleanliness and location of the property. The owners Gill and Martin were both very welcoming and approachable if needed without being overwhelming. Easy private parking. Relaxed atmosphere.

    My daughter and I went and stayed in a room she took up all the space on a small double should have had a twin bed instead.

    Loved the stay at the house very family orientated. Can't wait to go back again.

    Nothing we didn't like.

    The Polraen Country House is a lovely, grand old stone building, situated in the beautiful and peaceful, valley setting, a couple of miles inland from Looe. The hosts were fantastic guides and ambassadors, and are a credit to Looe, and Cornwall.

    Not much, all seemed fine, maybe for some not have evening meal service would be a problem but there is plenty or Restaurants in Looe to chose from and the owners are happy to bring back take away food and eat in the conservatory, also your own drinks if you prefer.

    Location is great, a 4 minute short bus ride into town so you can leave the car behind if you wish. Breakfast is great, plenty of variety, nice accommodation with great friendly hosts who make you feel welcome, beautiful landscaped gardens.

    Unfortunately we had to cancel our original booking due to travel issues, incurring cancellation costs, As a result we were unable to get the room we originally booked. The hosts advised that the replacement room was smaller and not as well situated as others and this reduced our enjoyment of our stay. I stress that this was not the hosts' fault and was down to circumstances.

    Excellent hosts who were very friendly and helpful in giving advice based on their local knowledge.

    Nothing to dislike however the room we had was quite small and compact but still comfortable. Also you need to take the local bus, a taxi or drive into the town centre as the property is a little way out of town. However this made it very peaceful.

    The owners are lovely people who are there for you to offer their ideas of where to go and what to see out and about in the area. Very welcoming offering an excellent breakfast service and also a relaxing lounge area where you can enjoy a drink with other guests at the end of your day.

    We was greeted with a warm and friendly smile from Gill. We was showen around where everything was. Our room was comfortable, clean. A well stocked tray of tea coffee ext was available There was a lovely selection to choose for breakfast everyday, the Cornish cooked breakfast was a great way to start our day. Never had fried bread so tasty before, thank you Martin also for your tasty mushrooms. We used the bus service once and it picked us up outside the hotel even though there is not a bus stop. We will highly recommend to friends to stay at the Polraen Hotel if visiting Looe. Big thank you to Gill and Martin for making us feel welcome xx

    It would have been nice to have an evening meal at the premises but I knew this wasn't available when I booked.

    From the outset the owners made you feel at home and ensured that you had a comfortable stay. The breakfast was superb and nothing was too much trouble. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again when I am next in the area.
