A weekend in Looe: an accessible itinerary

Every attraction and stay on this weekend states disabled access — we'll say that plainly, and we'd still ask you to ring ahead about parking bays, accessible toilets and lifts before you book. Saturday keeps the distances tiny: Newquay Zoo in the morning, lunch at Lakeside Cafe just 0.5 miles on (food hygiene rating 5/5), then the Blue Reef Aquarium a further 0.6 miles.

Sunday has one longer drive, 20.5 miles to Fowey Aquarium, where dogs are welcome, followed by a stroll of under a quarter of a mile to Ruby's for ice cream (5/5 hygiene, open 11:00–21:00) and 5 miles to The Core. For beds, Leonardo Hotel Plymouth sits 0.6 miles from Plymouth station and 0.6 miles from Plymouth Hoe East beach, rated Excellent by the Environment Agency; Travelodge Roborough is pet friendly; Dolbeare Park is 2.6 miles from St Germans station. Coming by train, the nearest station to Looe is Looe itself.

Day 2

The driving is front-loaded: 20.5 miles to Fowey Aquarium, which states disabled access and welcomes dogs, then a flat stroll of under a quarter of a mile to Ruby's (open 11:00–21:00, hygiene 5/5) for lunch. Finish 5 miles away at The Core, which also states disabled access — worth a quick call about step-free routes and accessible loos before booking.
