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.

Perfect for those looking for a quiet, peaceful, well run, very helpful staff team. The hotel is uncluttered, rooms simple and tastefully done. Breakfast is great. The location and views are simply stunning.

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.

Beautiful location
Gorgeous location and room. Breakfast was amazing. The only thing I would recommend is to email guests before the stay to book a table for food as couldn’t eat there which was shame. However the pub up the lane was amazing.

After big cities, it was fantastic to stop and enjoy the small village of Portloe. The hotel to excellent and the staff and food outstanding. Nothing was too much trouble and our whole experience was the best we enjoyed after four weeks in the UK.

Hmmm …not what we expected.
Very mixed thoughts about our stay at the Lugger! Obviously a beautiful location, the food was good… but… The Lugger is charging premium prices!! Our de-luxe room was very small and stiflingly hot with the view of a wall. Apart from one lady who was very efficient and kept the whole ship afloat, I’m afraid the staff were woefully inadequate. One waitress was so unresponsive and unfriendly it had to be experienced to be believed. This was not the experience I was expecting having read previous reviews… perhaps we were just unlucky but we would be reluctant to return.

Exceptional Location, Great Food
The location is quite exceptional. We watched dolphins as we sat on the restaurant terrace. We stayed in the Look Out which whilst small has amazing views and we would definitely ask for that room again when we return. The food is very good and reasonably priced for the quality on offer. I would suggest that staff training could be improved. There was one lady who appeared to be in charge of service in the dining room who was very friendly and good. However the team around her fall along way short of the standard that she delivered.
