Portlooe Cornwall Map

About Portlooe

Portlooe, a quiet hamlet in Cornwall, exhales the salty tang of the sea. It lies 1.5 km west-south-west of Looe (from Looe: bearing 247°T, OS grid SX 241 527). Here, the land slopes down to a modest harbour, where fishing boats, their paint weathered by brine and sun, bob with a gentle, rhythmic sway. The narrow lanes, paved with stones that have felt the tread of generations, wind between cottages of granite and whitewashed render, their gardens spilling over with a riot of fuchsias and hydrangeas, a colourful defiance against the grey Atlantic skies. A subtle murmur of the sea, an ancient lullaby, is ever-present, a constant reminder of the elemental forces that have shaped this corner of England.
