The West Country / Cornwall region


Pronounced "Lanreth", the Parish can trace its roots back to 1086. Apparently the local pub, the Punchbowl Inn was the first licensed pub in the area in 1620. You can read more about the village at www.lanreath.com
Penny Cottage is a perfect location to access many villages, towns and attractions which are all within striking distance. Nearby Looe is a vibrant, historic fishing port where one can choose from a host of activities including safe bathing from the golden sandy beach, rock pooling and whiling away the hours crabbing off the quayside and watching the local fisherman unloading the day's catch. Many other watersports such as parascending, water skiing and surfing are available nearby.
The coastline in this region is beautiful and is accessible by the scenic Cornwall South Coast Path, so perfect for walking and rambling. Talland Bay is incredibly pretty and situated between Looe and Polperro. The Talland Bay Cafe is popular with tourists, serving delicious food, ice creams and selling beach goods. Throughout the year Looe hosts a range of events including sailing regattas, a jazz festival, carnival week and even a duck race! New Year at Looe is made really special with the whole town celebrating in fancy dress and fireworks at midnight off the beach.
A lovely picturesque railway running along the river connects East Looe to Liskeard giving further access to the national rail network.
The river divides East and West Looe and both areas have a wealth of quaint buildings, cobbled streets, award winnning restaurants, cafes, traditional pubs and a variety of interesting shops, art galleries and boutiques.
For the surfing enthusiast, Newquay is only about a half hour drive away.
