Short Breaks in CornwallDip into the luxury of The Headland Hotel

Winter Storm Watching Breaks

Crashing waves, dramatic skies and a grandstand seat in four-star comfort.
Standing on a rocky promontory at the edge of the Atlantic ocean, Newquay's Headland Hotel is the perfect place to watch wild winter storms lashing Cornwall's rugged north coast. Great white horses charge shore-wards, hitting the rocks that lie just short of your close-up pew behind long-drop windows. So whilst the coastline takes a battering, you can marvel at the power of nature whilst you tuck into a platter of gourmet cuisine, sip fine wine or bubbly, or simply kick back in an armchair with a view. When the wild and windy weather strikes, the Headland Hotel has got the best seats in the house; which is why our special Storm Watching weekends make a perfectly unique winter short break in Cornwall.
