Banjo Cottage Looe

A great evening last night to be a part of! We loved following the lantern parade from East to West Looe. Well done to the organizers, and of course, the special guest Father Christmas! 🎅🎄☃️

We’re at Banjo for some end of season jobs. We had the sun and now we have the snow this morning ❄️🥶! Beautiful snowy view from up the hill looking out over to West Looe.

Great review by Cornwall Live for a new Greek restaurant in Looe. Well done Yamas! We look forward to sampling the food in a couple of weeks’ time 🍽️ 🇬🇷

It's one of a few Greek restaurants in Cornwall and having been fully booked since opening it's clearly doing something right

Banjo Cottage is dog 🐶 friendly! Here is Jasper the cockapoo doing the maintenance check on the balcony furniture. He loves watching the seagulls from here. There may not be a garden but there are plenty of lovely dog walks nearby & Banjo Cottage is on the South West Coastal Path. Woof woof 🐾!

The big reveal - the en suite to the main bedroom is now finished! We are really pleased with the result and our guests now have a brand new bathroom 🚿 to enjoy 😊. Many thanks to Andy Spindley of ACS Renovations for his work on this project. We highly recommend Andy’s craftmanship & attention to detail. This completes the renovations to the master bedroom, having had a new carpet fitted in the last couple of months too.
*We still have a couple of weeks available at Banjo in June, July & August - book now!!*

Looe Land Train will offer a Hop On - Hop Off tour, with an audio guide, between the Millpool Car Park, East Looe Seafront & Hannafore.

You don’t need to undertake the whole tour, you might just want to get from A to B, that’s the beauty of this new service - PLUS it will be doggy friendly too. With tickets starting at just £2; what a great value service as well.
