How to book cheap train tickets from Looe to Cardiff

Split Tickets discount
It might seem unusual, but buying several cheaper tickets for different sections of your journey can result in substantial savings - and you won't need to move seats at all. Even better, Trip.com automatically finds and arranges these split tickets for you, so there's no complicated planning required.

Travel during Off-Peak train times
To enjoy a calmer and often cheaper journey, we recommend choosing Off-Peak services and steering clear of the busy rush-hour periods. While timings differ slightly by operator, it's usually best to avoid travelling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. On weekends and bank holidays, Off-Peak fares apply all day.

Group travel deals
If your party consists of 3 to 9 travellers, you can benefit from group travel discounts — often up to a third off regular ticket prices. It's a great way to make trips from Looe to Cardiff more affordable for friends, family, or work groups.

Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
Explore a range of Railcards that typically offer 1/3 off most train tickets, including the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, as well as the 16-17 Saver, which offers 50% off. They’re easy to purchase and store digitally in your Trip.com app, meaning you're only ever a tap away from great savings.
