Short notice booking for a job down in Cornwall turned into a pleasurable trip after staying at this fantastic hotel. The location was fantastic, the meals were great, it was just a shame I had to leave for my work appointment.

One of the best hotels we have ever stayed in. The staff are amazing. The food was amazing. The facilities were amazing and it is in a stunning location. Not for everyone though as it is very quiet. At least it is in December. We hope to return one day.

Lovely old coastal inn. Room small and cosy overlooking the slipway. Evening dinner was good but moderately pricey for wine. Breakfast was excellent and consumed at a very leisurely pace with lovely views. The hotel is on the coast path so beautiful walks for the more energetic. Parking free immediately behind hotel

Beautiful location. Lovely staff, delicious breakfast. Clean comfy rooms. Something to note is Uber or similar services are not permitted in the area. We needed a taxi to Truro and all local firms were booked so had to drive. We’d already had a drink in the bar before we realised this, thankfully not enough to be unable to drive but if we had that would have ruined our plans. Also worth mentioning is that a 25 min taxi ride when we got one the following day was £50. We will return to The Lugger but just to enjoy the hotel and immediate location, not when needing to venture away.

Stayed for Valentine’s which included dinner (up to £40 Per Person) & breakfast. Main was ok but monkfish over cooked & pork under ( fat not rendered enough). They offered to take the fish main off the bill which was £32, as not finished & mentioned not the best. When we checked out the £32 was not put towards the drinks bill but as other than this we had a nice time & staff were great we never said anything. Overall good with great staff & fantastic breakfast. I would say could do with some updating in external areas but still enjoyed our stay!

A beautiful part of Cornwall to escape to for the weekend. The Lugger is in an amazing location - very quaint Cornish fishing cove. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, however we paid for an upgrade to deluxe but felt the room was still quite standard. There is room for improvement- eg lighting the fire in lounge area on a winters night and not using the entrance to main accommodation as storage area for the house keeping staff. We loved staying here but did feel it was overpriced for what you got.
