We've a big history and a unique story to tell. Established 1900, The Headland has been a longstanding favourite with royal visitors including King George VI, King Edward VII, The Prince of Wales and Princess Royal. We also found fame on the silver screen - the most well-known film made on location here at the hotel is Roald Dahl’s ‘The Witches’.

FURRY FRIENDS ARE WELCOME

Dogs are welcome in our hotel & cottages – even wet and sandy ones, as long as they are well-behaved! For your four legged friends we can provide a dog bowl, blanket, food and some yummy treats. There's a charge of £24 per dog, per night but with miles of sandy beach for them to run along it's well worth it.
