Our hotel, the Polraen Country House Hotel, nestles in the Looe River Valley, just 5 minutes from the historic fishing and seaside town of Looe in South East Cornwall.

Polraen Country House is a charming 18th century family run hotel in a peaceful yet convenient river valley setting just 2 miles north of Looe. Here you can combine quality bed and breakfast with optional evening dinner in spacious, fully licensed hotel style facilities. Polraen also benefits from plentiful onsite parking, a large garden and Looe with its maritime attractions only minutes away.

Earning ‘Good Breakfast’ and ‘Dinner Awards’ from the AA, AA Landlady of the Year and the Green Acorn Award for Sustainable Tourism, Polraen Country House Hotel has a well established reputation for delectable home-cooked fare and warm friendly hospitality extended to guests of all ages.

Rooms

Double, twin and spacious family rooms offer high quality well equipped ensuite accommodation, with modern comforts including Wi-Fi access. Guest facilities include a cosy fully licensed bar, comfortable guest lounge, spacious dining room conservatory and large garden. Whether staying for simple B&B or combining bed and breakfast with evening dinner, locally sourced Cornish produce is key, with fish as a specialty. We also cater for special diets.

Stylish refurbishment emphasises the historic charm of this fine stone country house, originally built as a coaching inn around 1740. Cushioned window seats, shutters, open log fires and an old range reflect its historic origins while a new conservatory ‘brings the garden into the house’, where you can enjoy a view over the garden for breakfast, afternoon tea, or evening dinner and discover a perfect venue for small weddings, family celebrations and functions.

Easy access to the rest of Cornwall

Few country hotels offer such easy access to Looe, Polperro, Liskeard and the sea. The picturesque 2 mile journey into Looe on the Looe Valley Line Train skirts the banks of the river, with access to the rest of Cornwall and beyond via the mainline at Liskeard. And a bus travels via Looe to Polperro.

We are delighted to assist guests who want to explore Cornwall using public transport. The famous Eden Project is just 35 minutes by car or go green and visit by train! We are within easy reach of many National Trust historic houses, gardens and attractions. We are also happy to help with walking routes, arrangements for fly/deep sea fishing, horse riding and a wide range of other  activities. There is a choice of golf courses within a 25 mile radius.

Polraen Country House Hotel – an ideal touring base for a Cornish country house holiday near Looe and the sea. Quiet and restful at night, you’ll find the hospitality is genuine, warm and relaxed – so that you can!

We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you & look forward to your visit.
