Thoroughly enjoyed staying at The Headland for a few nights. There's no getting away from the fact that it's expensive. Totally worth it though. You're paying for the view, the facilities & attention to detail. Room itself was good enough, not amazing. Very clean, perfectly comfortable. The views out of almost every window are stunning. The building is also lovely. The staff are attentive without being pushy and we were well looked after.

Lots of wonderful places to sit with a drink in the evening & breakfast was excellent every morning looking out at the sea. Special mention to their new(-ish) 'aqua club' with indoor and outdoor heated pools. Closest I've ever experienced in the UK to being abroad by the pool. Really impressive place.

Extraordinary experience from the moment you drive in! The welcome at the drive from the doorman to the moment you leave this is an unforgettable visit. We visited for the day with a baby and pram. The staff could not have been more accommodating, the food was exquisite with exemplary service. The views are stunning and the hotel has been kept to the highest of standards, and to a likeness of its original form which we loved. The staff were happy to share history and we loved the fact so many staff have worked their for years. It's a great place. We can't wait to go back! We highly recommend having a cream tea!

Just wanted to leave a review to say what an amazing day spa day me and a group of friends had the other day! All the staff are incredibly friendly. The overall atmosphere of the place was just wonderfull. The spa facilities were 10/10! Everything was spotlessly clean, couldn't fault a single thing. The spa therapist Summer, who did my treatments, was lovely and very talented at her job! I had the couture package and Left feeling very relaxed and papered! Thank you again headland hotel for a wonderful experience! Defiantly be back for another spa day sometime in the future!

A fabulous restaurant. Superb food and very professional staff. An outstanding experience. The 3-course menu was very affordable considering the high quality of the food. Fine dining at its best and to top that the happy birthday message for my wife on the desert plate made the night special.

Came here for food today and views are gorgeous. Food was well cooked. Toilets very posh & got guided tours around the Spa & Pool areas. The food was amazing but we booked in the terrace after the website saying dogs welcome and sat down and we got told to move as we had our dog. The website needs updating for this matter. Staff were kind & courteous to our family. Would definitely recommend.

We booked in for a couples massage. I had a regular treatment and booked my wife a pregnancy massage. Our therapists were Amelia and Summer and they were absolutely fantastic! We both felt that each therapist had understood our needs and were caring and attentive. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this spa to my friends and family. All the staff we had met on the day were lovely and next time we visit Newquay we will stay at the Headland for sure.
