Winter wellbeing

Escape to The Headland this winter for some five-star indulgence.

Stylish, elegant and unique, The Headland Hotel & Spa in Newquay offers the luxury of a five-star hotel with the addition of private self-catering cottages, all set upon an exclusive clifftop overlooking Fistral beach. The 95 individually designed bedrooms, some of which come with ocean views, are a welcoming haven of fashionable pleasure. And for the more independent travellers, the five-star, self-catering cottages are the very definition of relaxed coastal living, with one, two and three-bedroom cottages available.

A stay here helps to unplug from the daily routine, giving you time to reconnect with loved ones and rediscover time for togetherness. From the hotel you can explore the miles of sandy beaches below the iconic headland location or take a stroll along one of the many coastal paths located on each point of the compass. The in-house surf sanctuary provides adventurous activities for every age and ability, with something suitable for (almost!) every forecast. If the weather does take a turn for the extreme, you can hunker down on a squashy sofa in the Ballroom next to a crackling log fire.

Amidst the gorgeous seascapes and breathtaking sunsets, guests can wine, dine and relax in the contemporary one Rosette Terrace restaurant. Famous for its afternoon teas, the Terrace is the definition of relaxed and friendly beachside dining. The tables inside allow for uninterrupted sea views, making it the perfect spot to indulge in a classic culinary Cornish treat. When days turn to night, the Headland’s two Rosette dining room, the Samphire Restaurant boasts unparalleled sea to sun views. Led by Executive Chef, Christopher Archambault, and inspired by locally sourced and sometimes foraged ingredients, menus reflect both the dramatic changing seasons and Cornish heritage.
