 | | Looe (Cornish: Logh) is a coastal town in the Caradon district of south-east Cornwall, England, UK, with a population of 5280 (2001 census). |
 | | West Looe was given free borough status sometime after this (the first known historical mention of the town dates from 1327) and in the 1230s East Looe gained the right to hold a weekly market and a Michaelmas fair. |
 | | Looe's main business today is, however, tourism, with much of the town given over to hotels, guest houses and holiday homes, along with a large number of pubs, restaurants, and shops selling beach equipment, ice cream and Cornish pasties. |
