Best Nature and Parks (RV, National, Dog, etc) in Looe

"Nestled in a wooded valley, Gidleigh Park boasts 107 acres of mature grounds, within the wilds of Dartmoor. With an award winning restaurant, this estate is just 6 minutes’ drive from Chagford. This quintessential country house hotel has free WiFi throughout and offers individually styled accommodation with views over the grounds."

"At first glance, Dartmoor can come as something of a shock to the senses. The largest stretch of open moorland in the southwest, Dartmoor covers an area of 368 sq miles between Plymouth and Exeter."

"The National Marine Aquarium is a landmark building in Plymouth, situated in the historic and picturesque Sutton Harbour area. It is a complex, modern building consisting of huge swathes of curved glass and wood panelling on its exterior with a curved white roof, reminiscent of a wave. The design was commissioned in 1995 and was built over 3 phases, the first phase opened in 1998 and in 2018 it celebrated its 20th birthday."

"This recently overhauled waterfront aquarium provides an excellent introduction to the cold offshore world in the South Atlantic Ocean. Most impressive is the tunnel through the largest aquarium, which allows close-up views of graceful rays, toothy sharks (you can literally count the teeth!) and other little marine beasties."

"The National Marine Aquarium is a marine aquarium located in the city of Plymouth, England, in Sutton Harbour, next to the Barbican and fishmarket. It was opened in May 1998, with charitable aims of research, education and conservation. It is the largest aquarium in the United Kingdom."

"You can trace the Plym upriver to the northeast edge of the city, where you’ll come to a large swathe of woodland managed by the National Trust in a landscape of abandoned quarries. The woods are woven with walking and cycling trails, varying in length but none particularly challenging on this light terrain. You can follow the river through mossy oak forest and may spot fallow deer, peregrine falcons and kingfishers."

"Frankie and Benny's at the Barbican Leisure Park serves up the best of New York Italian cuisine to offer you big flavours and a massive choice. They cater for a wide range of preferences and the breakfast menu is no different. Choose from a selection of buttermilk pancakes with almost every topping you can think of, from mixed berries to chocolate and banana, to bacon, eggs and even fried chicken."

"This independent eatery serves fresh, simple and Italian food, including hand-stretched pizzas prepared in an open kitchen. It is the number one Italian restaurant in the city and has 170 'excellent' ratings and 34 'very good' ratings out of 230 reviews. One reviewer said: "This is a small, relaxed, family-run Italian restaurant. The pasta is made fresh for each meal. Every course that we had was remarkable! The starter was great, the main pasta course was perfect, the sauces were wonderful. The sweet was excellent."
