Looe is split by the River Looe, both towns are joined together by a bridge across the river, in Medieval times both towns were separate with East Looe having the harbour and main shopping center while West Looe is quieter but also has small corner shops, restaurants, and hotels. The bridge that joins them was constructed back in 1853, replacing the bridge built in the 15th century.
Talland Bay is located in South East Cornwall and situated near the fishing village of Polperro. From Talland Bay both Looe and Polperro are in walking distance via the south west coastal path. Talland bay comprises of two beaches, the main beach and Rotterdam beach which you can see at the other side of the bay. The main beach is a popular tourist destination with a car park, toilets, shop and a beach cafe. The sand here is a mix of coarse shingle and as the tide drops off it opens a vast amount of rock pools perfect for exploring Cornish marine life with the children.
Chapel Pool is a tidal pool located in the South East of Cornwall and this natural pool is nothing short of beautiful. We have taken many cold water swims at Chapel pool and loved each and everyone, the perfect afternoon in winter or summer.
