Beach hotels in Cornwall

Beach hotels in Cornwall are all about wild views, salty air and that unmistakable sense of escape. From Newquay’s surf-ready shores to the quieter stretches near Carbis Bay, there’s a spot for every kind of coastal getaway.

The Watergate Bay Hotel puts you within touching distance of the waves, with sea-facing rooms and a pool that looks out over the Atlantic. Above Fistral Beach, The Headland Hotel is a classic: part 5-star hotel, part spa retreat, with front-row seats to Cornwall’s best surf. In St Ives, smaller luxury hotels sit you close to the sand and the town’s creative buzz.

Whether you’re watching surfers carve through the swell or heading out for your own paddle, beach hotels in Cornwall offer the kind of break where you can properly switch off, by the sea.
