AA Awards for The Headland

MARCH 2026

A Triple Recognition for 2026

We are delighted to share that we have been awarded three accolades by the AA, recognising our ongoing excellence in all areas of hospitality.

Five AA Black Stars

The award of Five Black Stars is a significant benchmark in British hospitality. It marks a standard of service and attention to detail that we strive to maintain every day. For us, this isn't about grand gestures but about the small, consistent touches that make a stay feel seamless and comfortable.

The AA Best UK Spa Award

Our Spa and AquaClub have always been designed as a place of retreat, shaped by the proximity of the Atlantic. To be included in the Best UK Spa list by the AA is a welcome nod to our commitment to wellness. We’ve always believed that the best relaxation comes from a balance of high-quality treatments and the natural restorative power of the coast and it is rewarding to see that philosophy resonates.

From our restorative Spa days and treatments to our immensely popular Swim and Dine experiences at the AquaClub, there is something to boost everyone at The Headland.

Two AA Rosettes for Culinary Excellence

Good food is at the heart of The Headland experience. Receiving Two AA Rosettes acknowledges the technical skill and consistency of our kitchen team. By focusing on seasonal Cornish ingredients and clear, honest flavours, our chefs have created a dining experience that we believe is delicious and approachable. Special Sunday lunches, the timeless tradition of Afternoon Tea, lunch and dinner are all served, a special setting for every occasion.

A Note of Thanks

Awards are a lovely way to measure progress but they aren't the reason we do what we do. Our priority remains the same as it has always been: providing a beautiful space for guests to relax and make memories by the sea.
