About the hotel
The Headland is a large Victorian hotel standing on its own on the headland above Fistral Beach, on the western side of Newquay. It is run as a resort with a spa, an AquaClub with several indoor pools plus an outdoor edge pool, and a cluster of self-catering cottages in the grounds alongside the main hotel.
Rooms range from standard doubles to sea-view rooms and suites, and many look straight out over the surf beach. Food options include Restaurant RenMor, The Deck and Ugly Butterfly by Adam Handling. It suits couples after a spa break, families who want pools on site and dog owners, as dogs are welcome in every room and cottage and in parts of the public areas.
