Parts of the neighbouring coastline are in the ownership of the National Trust. With almost direct access to the beach and the South West Coast Path the location will suit those seeking to pursue the seaside lifestyle with Talland Bay only three miles walk to the west. The quiet Hannafore Beach provides a superb environment for bathing, kayaking and snorkelling, in addition, Looe's main beach, the banjo pier and bustling harbourside lie within walking distance.

The historic town of Looe has a working fishing harbour, boasts a thriving tourist industry and is also popular with boating enthusiasts. The town provides a wide range of shopping and community facilities, together with award winning restaurants. On the edge of the town is a branch line station linking with the main line at Liskeard (Plymouth to London 3 hours).

Golf is available at Portwrinkle, St Mellion International Golf Resort, or Looe Bindown. The sailing waters of the area are favoured by yachtsmen and deep water moorings are available on the Rivers Lynher and Tamar at St Germans, Saltash and Fowey/Polruan. Saltash has a Waitrose store and the city of Plymouth offers an abundance of facilities centred around the historic and fascinating waterfront areas of the Barbican and Hoe. The ferryport provides regular crossings to France and Northern Spain.

The Tamar Valley AONB, the surfing beaches of North Cornwall, historic country houses and many other places of interest lie within an easy drive. The Rame Peninsula (visible across the Bay) is relatively little known, often described as 'Cornwall's forgotten corner', forming part of the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with quiet beaches and outlined by the South West Coastal Path. The Mount Edgcumbe Country Park, an 800 acre area of coastal woodland and open hillsides, is possibly one of the most beautiful and varied locations of Cornwall.
