About the venue
Set on the Cornish coast at Newquay, The Headland Hotel and Spa is a historic building with 86 bedrooms, direct beach access and sea views across its grounds.
Couples can hold a legal ceremony on site, outdoors or indoors, with seated capacity for 45 guests for both the ceremony and the dinner that follows, and up to 60 standing for a reception.
An on-site wedding coordinator handles the planning, catering is prepared in-house, and the hotel is around 15 minutes from Newquay Airport (NQY).
Full buyout is available but not required, so you can book the venue without taking exclusive use.

Reviews of The Headland Hotel and Spa
“Beautiful hotel. We came here as my son was married here in this hotel 30 years ago. So very special. Staff were really friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Had a beautiful ocean view room. My little old dog enjoyed it too.”
