The Lugger is located in a small fishing village. The village is charming with renovated historic buildings and lovely gardens. There are no shops and just 2 restaurants in the village - the restaurant in The Lugger (excellent!) and The Ship Inn (authentic and good). The hotel restaurant has lovely views of the sea, with indoor and outdoor seating. It's nice to just spend the afternoon with a drink and take the sea view and quiet in. There is also a cozy lounge attached to the dining area. The location is perfect for walking the coastal path, napping and reading. If you wish to travel to other locations in either the surrounding area (beaches) or in Cornwall, a car is a must. You can travel there by train to Truro and take a taxi for about $50. The staff was lovely and helpful.

Fabulous location, beautiful hotel and a lovely room with sea view. However, the dining room, facilitated by inexperienced "teenagers" was unacceptable for a 5 star establishment. We originally intended to eat in the hotel for the duration of our 4-night stay but after the first night experience and despite there being no other options locally, we decided to drive 8 miles, rather than eat there again.

Lovely hotel,great location, bed not all that
A small and friendly hotel, set in a rural, coastal position , away from it all. Old building tastefully redecorated , room was nice with a decent bathroom. Excellent view of the coastal inlet. Caught a glimpse of the local fisherman launching and returning in the morning , right under our window Only negative was the bed, for such a highly priced room, I would expect bigger and better comfort - breakfast was ok

Lovely yet pricey seaside resort
We spent a night in Portloe and were impressed with the location of the Lugger and the kindness of the check-in staff, who helped us get into our room a bit early so that we could dress for an event. After booking a 260-pound room at a quaint B&B, I was surprised when we were asked if we wanted to pay another 18 pounds for the very simple breakfast they set out in the mornings. Our room was in the back of the second building, so our only small window was about two feet from the next building, and our bed faced the bathroom door. I understand you can't always get the room with the view, but the rooms are nothing special on the backside. I would normally hope a 5-star hotel would have a few nice details, like a cart for the drinks so you're not balancing the kettle on the bedside table, or a nespresso machine rather than two instant coffee packets. Overall, it's a lovely stopover, but I'd only return if they offered a steep discount and promised a bit of a view.

The staff was wonderful. The restaurant manager shared suggestions for sightseeing the first day we were there. It was a wonderful day and one we never would have come up with on our own. Everyone we encountered at the Lugger seemed genuinely interested us and sharing their love of Cornwall with us.
