Christmas & New Year in Newquay, Cornwall | The Headland

Magical Christmas Moments

Christmas Experiences in Cornwall

Celebrate Christmas and the New Year in Cornwall with a magical escape to The Headland. Our iconic clifftop hotel glows with festive charm: twinkling fairy lights, elegant seasonal décor and the scent of real spruce trees filling the air.

Settle into cosy sofas and admire dramatic ocean views as waves crash against the rugged coastline, all while the comforting aroma of glowing embers drifts nearby.

Indulge in exceptional festive dining, sparkling drinks and a programme of glittering entertainment that makes the season truly unforgettable. Families and four-legged friends are warmly welcomed in both our hotel and luxury cottages, allowing everyone to share in the joy of the holidays at The Headland.

Spend Christmas at The Headland

23rd - 26th December 

Celebrate Christmas at The Headland and delight in festive dining and entertainment throughout the Yuletide period, with mince pies aplenty. Throughout the break, enjoy festive experiences in The Ballroom, a champagne breakfast on Christmas Day and of course, Christmas Day lunch.

Entertainment is never far away. Listen to the tinkle of the piano, have a flutter at Casino Night, spend Christmas morning in the AquaClub, enjoy carols, enjoy Christmas movies and come together to watch The King’s Speech in The Ballroom.

Boxing Day is a more relaxed affair as you gather to play board games or take a seasonal stomp along the Cornish coastal path on our doorstep if your party wants some fresh sea air.

Hibernate at The Headland

27th - 29th December

Hibernate at the coast between Christmas and the New Year. Guests staying in the hotel can enjoy breakfast each morning in Restaurant RenMor. Fill your days with walks on the beach or a swim in the sea if you are brave enough.

Warm up in the heated pools in the AquaClub or join the little ones to watch Christmas-themed movies each day. Remember to pre-book your dining in RenMor and The Deck if you do want to join us for supper during your stay.
