Peaceful bolt hole particularly for couples

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

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.

Valentines stay!

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!

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.

Amazing and totally beautiful location. The Lookout room is the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of life. I can't praise it enough.

A really wonderful stay

The Lugger is a wonderful little hotel. An extremely warm welcome with the rarity of the being shown to your a nice touch. An even nicer touch is the turn-down service which includes a hot water bottle and chocolates. The room had everything I needed. A fridge with milk and water was very welcome. A generous fruit bowl was also a thoughtful touch. The general impression is that the hotel genuinely takes care to ensure guests feel welcome and have all they need. Clean and cosy,the room was a pleasure to stay in.
Not many hotels can boast this view outside reception.

8/10 Very good

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.

6/10 Good

Great for walking but not 5*

Although rated as a 5 star I struggle to see how. Hotel is in a stunning location, there is nothing around it but coast path which was fine for us as that is what we wanted but might put others off. Hotel looked tired in lots of areas, the communal areas seems unkempt and a little grubby, little things around that shouldn’t be such as the half eaten sandwich left outside our room was a good example. Looks like it needs an update for sure, lots of chipping paint and a grubby carpets. It’s not made clear that if you have a terrace room it’s a shared terrace with a few other rooms so didn’t feel at all private, especially as this is also on the road into the hotel too. The shower was dreadfully weak, cracked tiles in the bathroom floor and just looking tired, could hear everything the room upstairs was doing, especially their alarm at 6:30 in the morning…. No robes as stated, pillows are very uncomfortable and hard. Overall it was just ok. We didn’t eat in the restaurant in then end, mainly as it was Easter Sunday and apparently the chef hadn’t done the menu even up to the night before but then it turned out to be the same as the other nights so that was confusing. Breakfast was ok but small. This place could be amazing with a few tweaks and a good general manager with some attention to detail but sadly lacking in my eyes.
