The hotel was lovely, the staff in the restaurant were lovely. New restaurant opened with obvious teething Problems but it’s beautiful and the Food was lovely. Unfortunately the room was far too hot, unbearable. Asked for the radiator in the bathroom to be turned off the receptionist said someone will go to the room to sort it out but it wasn’t, asked for some info about the hotel such as spa details times for meals, the normal stuff you get in a room, the receptionist just kept saying I don’t know, I’m not sure etc and I’ll find out but never got back to us. Both things were disappointing that no one got back to us.

Luxury by the sea

The most amazing.few.days away, in a home from home environment, from the minute you walk un you feel you're at home surrounded by friends, one of the best hotels I've stayed in, and nothing disappointed, and the Spa is a relaxing retreat away from the world.

We went for a Mini Moon. The staff were nothing short of fantastic. They were super accommodating. The hotel is beautiful. Amazing views of the sea from room and their restaurant. The only down side we can say that the vegan options in the hotel were there but in some of the restaurants is limited but the food we had was delicious.

Great staff, poor value for priciest rooms

The staff were the best thing about this hotel - super friendly and helpful, where hotel policy allowed. Good view on the coast and some nice features, including comfortable sofas in ballroom. We got the Ocean View room - supposedly best available, but totally not worth the £440 per night rate we were charged. The rooms were small and very ordinary, especially bathroom with shower in bath and no mixer taps. Nothing particularly wrong with them - clean etc - and would have been reasonably happy if cost was half that rate. Not sure what the point of the ‘golf’ was. Pitch and putt with barely any evidence of maintenance. Mostly losing ball in scrubland. No point taking clubs and equipment lent out is inadequate even for a bit of fun. Spa has been done nicely. Careful thought in design, attention to detail and execution. Other than water in rooms in glass bottles, no evidence of sustainable or climate conscious practises. Must be huge waste from buffet breakfast. Disposable plastic glasses in spa. No info on how spa is powered - must be huge energy demand to heat outdoor pools, run jets, clean towels etc.

Excellent stay,wonderful facilities/friendly staff

We had a wonderful stay recently at the Headland with our 1 year old baby. We’d received an email regarding staff issues across Cornwall and contract tracing causing some issue with staffing, this helped us actually feel reassured before we arrived and safe and we appreciated the notification for some extra patience. The staff were brilliant throughout our stay, we visited the Terrace & Samphire which were brilliant, the food was delicious and the staff were so accommodating and engaging with our daughter after a year without seeing many people this was a joy to see. We also visited the adults only spa & aqua club during our stay. They are both wonderful and perfect for different uses. The aqua club was a wonderful place to spend time and swim inside and out with our daughter included. We will be back soon 😊 Our only slight criticism, is when we arrived we were told we owed a balance - and we had to get a little stern to comment it was paid via hotels.com (also a bit embarrassing to have this happen in a busy hotel lobby) and this was referred to manager who promptly resolved the issue and we were able to check into our room.

We had a fantastic stay, the staff were helpful, friendly and very professional. The food was excellent, until the continental breakfast on the last morning, portions were tight to say the least, no tea and coffee, despite ordering it, no cutlery, it took three visits back downstairs to sort it, when we eventually ate it, it was mediocre. Only Other sticky point was the extra bed in our family suite for our adult son was a fold out frame 5 inches off the floor which kept collapsing, he ended up sleeping on a thin, single mattress on the floor, he’s 6’ 2 and big built. For this we had to pay an extra £80. All of that being said we would definitely be going back.

Very dated, seemingly only a choice of a tiny box room or a large suite style room. Neither worth the cost. Definitely over priced and the food was terrible. Although they’ve catered for vegan and gluten free food well the “fresh” food was clearly frozen, the fried food was refried so go early otherwise the sausages are tough burnt and oil soaked. Restaurant food was terrible although they did take it off the bill when we highlighted it didn’t match the description. The staff tried hard and location was good. Gym facilities were good however crowded at times as non hotel guests use the gym so avoid peak times. We were first put in a very small room which could just about walk around the bed.
