How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 1 pet-mention guest review sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.
- Not a personal visit. We don't stay at every hotel we cover - we summarise patterns from real guest reviews, paraphrased and never quoted verbatim. Full standard on our editorial policy page.
- Wider context: The property has 100 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 9.3/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: August 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.
Pet policy at a glance
- Well behaved pets are welcome, but only in some of the caravans, so ask for a dog friendly one when you book.
- Of the three bedroom caravans, only Trevithick takes dogs. Du Maurier does not.
- The smaller two bedroom caravan, Flamank, takes dogs and has a gate on the deck to stop them wandering.
- The two newest two bedroom caravans, Elizabeth Carne and Joseph Thomas, do not take pets.
- The on-site shop sells dog food and a small range of dog toys.
Pet-friendly summary
Polborder Holidays Looe Country Park is a quiet, secluded caravan park that works well for owners who want to bring a pet on a Cornish break. Accommodation is in individual static caravans, so you and your pet have your own private unit, decking and a small balcony-style space rather than shared corridors - the kind of set-up that suits animals who settle better with their own room and outdoor patch.
The important thing to know is that the welcome is not site-wide. Only some of the caravans take dogs, and the park is specific about which: of the three-bedroom units only Trevithick accepts them, and among the smaller two-bedroom vans Flamank does, with a gate on its decking to stop a dog wandering off. Ask for a dog-friendly caravan by name when you book rather than assuming any unit will do.
Pet feedback here comes from a stay with cats rather than dogs, and they took happily to the trip, helped along by friendly, hands-on owners and a genuinely peaceful site. The surroundings are the real draw: there is open space to walk on the park itself, and a gate near the bottom opens onto Screek Woods for longer rambles. Evenings are dark and still, with clear views of the stars. Reception keeps a small shop that stocks dog food and a few dog toys, which saves a drive if you forget something.
Looe town is about a ten-minute drive, or an hour's walk over the hills, with beaches, boat trips and dog-tolerant pubs at the end of it. The park sits up a hill, so it suits owners happy to drive in rather than rely on a long walk, and Sunday taxis are scarce. The published guidance is written around dogs, so if you are travelling with a cat or anything else, check that directly. Best suited to pet owners after a calm, rural base with woodland walks from the gate and the coast a short drive away.
