Boasting such handsome architecture in a staggering, unique location, it is no surprise that The Headland Hotel’s world-class location has been the focus of several films. One of its best known roles was in the film adaptation of Roald Dahl’s, The Witches, and the South West’s most prominent landmark hotel has also starred in The Shellseekers (based on Rosamunde Pilcher’s novel) and a number of BBC dramas. In 1999 it even attracted David Bailey’s camera lens when it was used for a photo shoot for Italian Vogue.

Hear the ocean. See the ocean. Relax by the ocean. Perched in view of the wild Atlantic rollers lashing Cornwall's rugged north coast, The Headland Hotel boasts an unrivalled location. This is a British beachside hotel at its very best. Floor to ceiling windows bring the panorama of the Cornish coast to your dining table, and the wave-licked golden sands of Fistral beach (the UK's surfing capital) are just footsteps from the front door.

The stunning location of the Headland Hotel has made it one of Cornwall's (if not the entire West Country's) most iconic and famous hotels. Its grand Victorian façade stares out to the ocean, towering regally above the golden sands, marram grass and rocky promontories that divide the land and sea. Surrounded by the raw beauty of the Cornish coast on three sides, the views are simply breathtaking.

Whether or not you have experienced the beauty of Newquay’s Headland Hotel in the medium of film, nothing will rival the wow-factor of a real visit.
