Whole experience was fantastic, the room overlooked Fistral Beach (3rd Flr), the breakfast was to die for, the hotel itself is wonderful, the SPA is an added bonus. All staff we met were excellent, reception, porters, bar, spa, waiters/waitresses, maître de, maintenance, concierge, room cleaning - helpful and always willing to assist or share a chat - these people put the hotel miles above the rest. Well done Headland staff - 10/10

The SPA could get a little crowded in the afternoons. You have to watch your spending as booking things to your room could give you a nasty shock on check out day. £10 for a single G&T - uumm. They add a service charge to every bill and then there's a tip section on it - always worth checking before you sign.

Staff were very friendly, room was spacious and bed comfortable.

Our room was sold to us as an ocean view but in reality it overlooked the car park so it was rather disappointing.

Great location with spectacular views. I love the old world look, feel, and atmosphere of the Headland Hotel. The staff friendly and even a small issue they found a solutions. I will be back and tell my friends and family in Australia.

One or two of the brekky’s were warm and not hot. Serve your eggs on thick sour dough not thin.

Main restaurant was excellent, staff were all very friendly and the overall hotel is dog friendly. The spa is nice, we enjoyed the outside pools. The beaches on the doorstop are amazing, you have the main beach and all of the little coves which makes a nice evening walk

The second restaurant could use some love and a bit more variation / improvement in the menu, since it's the only dog friendly one, it should be good enough to go to more than once. The building is lovely but it's beginning to feel dated and could use some love modernising and renovating some areas.

Location is fantastic if travelling with dogs or like a walk on the beach before breakfast. The restaurant is very nicely spaced out and the staff are very helpful and courteous. The food is good too! Great modern en suite showers that looked newly done. Breakfasts is def worthy of enjoying slowly - a very nice atmosphere too.

room service we used a lot as we were moving house so using the hotel for luxury and rest. Unfortunately we could not enjoy the hotel to its best ability due to late evenings . The room service staff tried their best with fast and courteous service - the kitchen should keep the room service team on the ball as room service is paramount when staying in Luxury land . ie where the onion chutney is stored or show them how to make a Whizz Works hot Chocolate - 😂 i got a guest complaint to room service because of my dog barking - he barked once when room service knocked on the door to deliver the food - so i am not out of control of my dogs whoever you were!

Lack of friendliness

Everything exceeded our expectations. From the check in staff showing us up to our room, the fabulous views from our room, the personal note left for our wedding anniversary with 2 complimentary cocktail vouchers in the bar. The Aqua club was an added bonus with comfortable loungers outside, stunning views of the sea, and the bar service to enjoy your drinks in the heated Edge Pool or jacuzzi. All the staff were super helpful and well informed and nothing was too much trouble.

The menu at the Renmor restaurant was limited and therefore we didn't eat at the hotel.

The public spaces were outstanding, as was the spa and the choice of places to eat. The setting is unique, being surrounded on one side by the sea and the other by a golf course. The staff were beyond excellent, especially Verity who kept us supplied with hot drinks and Reece, always cheerful and engaging. The smoked salmon for breakfast was the best that I have ever tasted, (I am now a fan of smoked salmon whereas before our stay I was indifferent). The 'overnight' oats with fruit was magnificent. The pizza in The Deck was the best since we lived in Rome many years ago. Our room was spacious and comfortable and we especially enjoyed the humourous friendly notices by the service lifts and the kitchens. All in all, a most friendly and welcoming, unstuffy beautiful hotel deserving of its 5-star rating.

The gym is too small: weights machines weren't wide-ranging enough, (no facility to exercise 'abdomenal crunches,' sit-ups or pectoral muscles). But I realise this is subjective.

The staff are the heart of this beautiful hotel. They could not have been more friendly, helpful or approachable. I am recovering from a heart attack and visited principally to relax. Oh my goodness... it worked! This is such a lovely well appointed hotel & spa, I wanted to move in. There are plenty of activities for the adventurous and sporty but I had to sit out on these this time. Amazing food from the kitchen in all three restaurant's with brilliant service. Meals for children, lighter options to fine local food. The building, facilities, gardens and grounds are impeccable with real attention to detail. The Aqua club is really worth visiting! I have not felt this relaxed in years! Excellent walks along to coastal paths and heaven for dogs who can also stay. Thank you All.

Leaving. But I hope to be back one day.

We stayed here for our 10th anniversary! Staff were lovely and couldn’t do enough for us. Everywhere was kept very clean, lovely relaxed atmosphere and the aqua club and spa were fab!

Our room was very small and there wasn’t great storage space such as hooks for coats and the furniture wasn’t arranged fantastic for using the room in the best, without bumping into furniture often. Also the room fridge was lukewarm which was annoying for storing drinks and my dairy free milk. However the porters were amazing and would bring me dairy free milk for my tea on request, which was very kind of them.
