We have stayed in the property below and that was very nice. However, High Tide is not of a similar standard. Positively, there is a large window in the sitting area with views of the treetops. The downside for us an older couple is access from parking below is via lots of stone steps; not good when carrying luggage, although it is situated right next to the main road to Polperro which does mean it's possible to drop off bags from the roadside. The kitchen is not a cook's kitchen; it has very basic equipment, and the downside is that it does not have a dishwasher.
The main bedroom has a small double bed with a mattress so hard I had to sleep in the second bedroom apart from my husband. This has bunk beds, the lower one being very comfortable.
On the plus side, the bathroom is clean, spacious and has a very good shower. There is a whirlpool bath but we did not use.
The apartment is located a short walk uphill from Looe centre, and parking, although a little tight is available on the lane below the flats.
There is an outside sitting area with artificial grass, but only two small chairs.
Overall, High Tide would be a comfortable affordable apartment for a young couple with two, or three small children.
It does however lack the finishing touches and warmth that as seasoned travellers (especially to Looe) that we have experienced with other accommodation providers.
Final note; I couldn't open the key in the box so had to post it through the door.
