A well run hotel. All staff attentative and well presented. Room's vary in price and quality. All rooms are clean and beds we found conformable they do however need modernisation old pine furniture that is well worn and outdated. The food quality and choice are outstanding and the presentation is excellent. All areas are covid safe. We did not use the spa area so could not comment. Bar prices are what you expect from a quality presented Hotel. This is our second visit, balancing it all up not bad value for the money you pay.

As a non resident I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to The Headland Hotel. I had an amazing massage by Stella who then organised for me to use the hydro pool facilities for a little extra. Wow these are fantastic! So relaxing. What a lovely way to spend New Year's Eve. I shall definitely be returning for their Spa Day package with some girlfriends.
