What visitors have said about The Lookout and Spyglass Apartments |

We arrived during a howling gale to find a very comfortable and cosy apartment, well equipped to soothe the long distance traveller and with welcoming gifts of wine and clotted cream. Polperro is beautiful and quaint and we also enjoyed trips to Fowey and Looe. The Spyglass is lovely with beautiful views and contains everything needed for a most enjoyable stay. Niki and Richard are gracious and friendly hosts with a wealth of iniformation about the local area. It was a marvellous stay.

We enjoyed our first stay in Cornwall not only because of the nice weather and the beautiful countryside but also because of the fantastic atmosphere and our unique apartment. Each time we returned from our daily trip we felt to come "back home". .... We are sure we'll come back soon.

Absolutely glorious place. So peaceful. Wonderful view. Enjoyed just sitting and staring out of the window. Couldn't have picked a nicer place to stay in Polperro, even with the climb up from the village. Would recommend walking along the South West Coast Path in either direction - spectacular scenery. The local people are so friendly and polite. Your kittens are gorgeous. Thank you for the welcoming goodies.

A truly delightful two weeks! The weather wonderful with only a couple of non-sunny days. We chose the Spyglass simply on the views and were not disappointed. Even the murky days had their own beauty. Great views, great countryside, great hosts - a perfect combination for a great vacation.
