East Looe Transportation Tips by Geoff_Wright

Let The Train Take The Strain

One of the nicest and prettiest ways to travel to Looe is by train. The two-coach train departs from the mainline railway station at Liskeard, and wends its way down to Looe, following the low-lying ground, and eventually the river itself. However, here lies a problem, as, due to the low-liying ground, the railway track is often closed due to flooding. In this event, there is always a bus link from Lskeard to Looe. The train arrives right in the town, with minimal walking to the town itself.
