“Little Mainstone Guest House strikes me as a particularly charming choice in Looe, owing to its Victorian architecture and the especially attentive hosts. The prospect of starting each day with a full English breakfast while overlooking the river adds a distinctive appeal. Its proximity to both the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and Looe's high-street shops makes it, in my opinion, a very well-situated base.”
