Seafront Toilets Update

Work has continued over the last couple of weeks to complete the refit and and redecoration at the seafront toilets before they re-open for the 2024 season. Finishing touches and a final clean are being done now before opening at the end of this week. Outstanding external cleaning and painting will be completed after Easter as weather has prevented us from getting everything done outside the building that we would have liked to before now.

New water-saving toilets and sensor taps have been installed in both the Ladies and Gents and we’ve converted the urinals to a waterless system for a trial period. If you use these in the seafront gents, we’d love to hear your feedback so that we can make an informed decision about whether to convert permanently to the waterless system. Please contact us with your comments at enquiries@looetowncouncil.gov.uk or on 01503 262255.

Charging will be introduced at the Ladies and Gents toilets at seafront after Easter and, in line with the Millpool, there will be a 20p entry fee payable by card/contactless only. We’ve had some questions and feedback about the payment system and the introduction of fees so have produced a set of Q&As about this which you can find at www.looetowncouncil.gov.uk/news/seafront-toilets-update. The accessible toilet at the seafront, like all our sites, will remain free to use for those with a RADAR key.

If you live in Looe, don’t forget that you can buy a Residents Card to access the charging public toilets in town. Cards can be purchased for a one-off £5 fee and come with 30 entry credits (i.e. £6-worth). Your card will then automatically re-set at the end of each month to provide you with another 30 entries at no extra cost. Unused credits do not roll over to the next month. Residents Cards are available from Looe Library or the Town Council Offices at The Millpool, Looe.
