A lovely little snug property for two, very close to all beaches and town centre. The reserved parking was very close so allowed luggage to be easily carried to car so as not to block the narrow street outside property.
The nearby beach cafe served excellent filled rolls, coffee etc which were a joy to eat overlooking the beach.
All highly recommended........do try this property????????
Mr Jones 1 month ago
This snug apartment lives up to expectations, being well fitted out with up-to-date kitchen and shower room furnishings. Conveniently located for Porth Gwidden beach (wonderful for swimming) and giving easy access to Porthmeor and the harbour. The allocated car space nearby is a real boon in crowded St Ives. We would use it again if we seek these features in future. Very good for two persons.
Mr Mears Mar 2022

Plenty of pluses for the Lugger. Location. Parking. Warm and cosy. Ideal for a short break for a couple with their pooch. Pretty much always fully booked so this says it all.
Mrs Edwards Jan 2022
The Lugger has such a lot of good things going for it which just lets you get on & fully enjoy your holiday.

Ms Payne Apr 2021
Great little base in the heart of Downalong clean, tidy and comfortable, a real bonus having the car park space included, excellent for couples.
Mr Phillips Oct 2020
Lovely little apartment in very good location near my favourite beach -Porthgwidden. Would definitely book again. Unfortunately, 2 weeks flew by. Aspects, as always, very easy to book with and maintain contact with.
Mrs Drinkwater Aug 2020
As always we had a fab time and would recommend Aspects every time. They are very pet friendly too as our cockapoo Henry posed for his picture in their office looking very happy!
Mrs Titley Nov 2019
A wonderful stay for our little one’s first holiday (3 months old)! Great location for popping in and out; ideal with a baby and enough space for her cot next to the bed! Cosy accommodation which felt luxurious too and fab facilities for cooking .. and a washer dryer which was super handy! We will definitely recommend to others!
Mrs Jarman May 2019
Perfect retreat to come back to after lots of walking and close enough to all the beaches to pop back and make a picnic lunch to take back to the beach !
Mrs Gilmore May 2019
Enjoyed a fabulous week's stay at 'The Lugger!' Enjoyed being so close to Porthgwidden beach, our dog loved his early morning and evening walks to see the seals! The parking permit included is a real plus point. We found the cottage a quiet, cosy bolthole, well designed and with everything you would need for a comfortable stay. We'd swap the armchairs for a comfy sofa though! Thank you to Aspects for another fab holiday!
Mrs Williamson Mar 2019
Lovely small ground floor accommodation 5 mins walk from all the essential places in St Ives.(beaches, station, shops etc) Perfect for a couple. Parking space is a couple of mins walk from accommodation. Permit provided People with larger cars will struggle with access, but to be fair that is not specific to the property. They will struggle anywhere within St Ives as the roads are very tight.
Mr Ainley Dec 2018
Fantastic location, well equipped modern property with the added benefit of parking close by.
Mrs Sherris Oct 2018
The Lugger is a really lovely pet friendly little bolt hole in an excellent location. Would recommend.

Beautiful little cottage in a fantastic location!
Mrs Wallbanks May 2018
You gave us out of date parking permit... it expired on 31st March, we only noticed it on the last day.
Ms Kelly Apr 2018
Reply from Aspects Holidays
We are sorry if this caused any concern. Unfortunately the council had a huge backlog, so hadn't sent out new parking permits before these ones were due to expire. They had confirmed that these would still be valid until the new ones arrived. We had tried to warn any guest that would be affected by this, so we are very sorry if you had not got this message. We hope that you enjoyed your stay at The Lugger. Tanya, Customer services
Will recommend The Lugger and will revisit ourselves soon..
Mr Nock Jan 2018
Great cottage for couples taking a short break.
Ms Edwards Oct 2017
Excellent small cottage, perfect for 2. Very comfortable with everything you could need in the kitchen and a lovely bathroom and superb shower. Allocated parking space was a 5 minute walk away a real bonus in St Ives.
Mr Merrick Oct 2017
Lovely place to stay, modern and cosy. The bed was so comfortable and the best I’ve ever slept in. However, this place needs a sofa instead of the armchairs for when you want a night in.
Mrs Roper Oct 2017
Beautifully equipped and the welcome gifts and flowers were a very nice touch. In a really convenient location which means you can enjoy St Ives and all its amenities without needing to use a car at all.
Mrs Bowen Oct 2017
Charming cottage, great location for all amenties especially the dog beach. Looking forward to returning sometime soon.
Mrs Girdler Oct 2017
