Just spent three nights in the wonderful hands of Jean and Peter. The room was just great; large and well-appointed with a very comfortable bed and a superb view of the river. Breakfast was all you could ask for. Don't know where Peter gets the bread but it is worth the overnight stay all by itself. The weather, which was... More

We stayed for 4 nights and cannot fault the accommodation at all. Excellent breakfasts and lovely room with stunning view of the river. We would highly recommend a stay here. The rooms at the front of the property have great views over the river.One of our party is coeliac but this was not a problem and was happily accommodated.

I am sitting in my room writing this review on the last night of my stay. I can see the river out of the window it is totally relaxing and far better than TV. Food wonderful; hosts Peter & Jean fabulous food of great quality. The only drawback: we have to return home tomorrow. Thanks Mr & Mrs Cox.

We stayed in a superior room at the back of the property for three nights. The room was naturally dark because of the steepness of the land behind but plenty of lights to brighten it up. Tea and coffee, hot chocolate and lovely biscuits all laid on. The bed was really comfy. If you're new to Cornwall I recommend a... More

Peter and Jean were great hosts, starting with a friendly,warm welcome. Very quite and relaxed atmosphere.Breakfasts out of this world. The rooms were superb. Peters choice of places to eat were spot on. The best B&B we have stayed in without doubt. We will be returning again in the near future for sure.

The welcome we recieved from Jean and Peter was warm and welcoming. Our room was perfect and very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent even the relaxing background music, nothing was too much trouble. Excellent eating out recommendations by Peter, The Sail Loft is a must. Jeans' recommendations for reclusive unspoilt spots were breathtaking. Thankyou for a great time in Looe, see... More

The welcome you receive on arrival makes you feel special as soon as you walk through the door. The breakfast is the best I have ever had in Looe, perfectly cooked a very well... More

Having stayed in Looe for a week of miserable weather, typically the weather changed on the day before we left so we decided to stay another night in a bed and breakfast. We managed to find a vacancy at Dolphin House, for both ourselves and our son. The rooms were amazing, clean and really comfortable, The owners were really helpful... More
