The Lugger Truro

Portloe is on the south Cornish Coast, midway between St. Austell and Falmouth. The Hotel is conveniently situated for touring this outstanding area. The Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan are just two of the numerous attractions nearby.The hotel is a little gem tucked away in a cove and tiny harbour where you can watch lobster and crab pots being landed and taken away. Its history is an intriguing mix of a 17th-century inn, boat builder's shed and fishermen's cottages. Now transformed into a warm, welcoming hotel, complete with a spa.Designed for the most discerning of travellers, the hotel's 22 bedrooms are adorned with crisp white linens and bleached Portuguese woods for a contemporary yet intimate feel, and all feature luxurious en-suite bathrooms with deep baths and deluge showers.Taking full advantage of this beautiful location, the Lugger Restaurant overlooks the sea and harbour and serves classical cuisine with an emphasis on locally-sourced produce - particularly shellfish, lobster and crab. Throughout the year, heavenly lunches and evening aperitifs are served to guests on the sun-drenched terraces.From Plymouth Airport turn right onto Plymbridge Lane. Turn left.
