May 2025

The highly anticipated adaptation of Raynor Winn’s bestselling memoir, The Salt Path, is set to grace UK cinemas on May 30, 2025.

Starring Gillian Anderson and Jason Isaacs, the film will tell the story of Raynor and Moth Winn as they navigate the South West Coast Path after losing their home and facing a terminal diagnosis.

During filming in 2023, The Headland was fortunate enough to be used as a filming location for a scene that stars both Anderson and Isaacs.

We particularly love the story of The Salt Path due to our proximity to the South West Coast Path, when staying here, guests can fall out of their beds and onto the path for a day of exploring.

The South West Coast Path is the UK’s longest National Trail, stretching 630 miles (1,014 km) along the stunning coastline of southwest England.

The trail is made up of a mix of rugged cliffs, sandy beaches, moorland, estuaries and rolling countryside throughout Cornwall, Devon, Somerset and Dorset.

The Headland is officially a Way Maker on the path and provides the perfect spot for overnight stays, hearty lunch breaks and soothing spa sessions.

We have even curated experiences that include fuelling snacks and Spa credits for those exploring the path - https://www.headlandhotel.co.uk/offers/pathways-to-paradise/ 

Our dog-friendly hotel is also perfect for those wanting to bring their pooches with them for the journey.

Our lovely concierge team are always on hand to help you plot your next move and know all the perfect hidden spots you can get to from our coastal base.

Book your stay and walk the 'path that moved the world'.
