We had a great crowd staying with us over the weekend. Yes, it may have rained a bit but that didn't dampen anyones spirits. It was a bit quieter than we were expecting, no unbooked arrivals so it may be that the forecast put people off from turning up at the last minute.Looe itself was busy for the whole period. In addition to the main stages on the beach, the whole town gets into the festival spirit. Many of the pubs have their own live music and there are market stalls in the streets so even without tickets there is much to do. The only downside is that I didn't get out to experience it myself, I will have to try harder next year. 4th October 2017 |
