I had a lovely stay at The Headland Hotel and Spa, with the setting being truly beautiful and the staff really good. The spa treatments I enjoyed were wonderful, but I found the pricing to be on the higher side compared to local options. Dining experiences varied - while breakfast was excellent, the evening meal service at the Samphire restaurant was a bit slow and the food didn't quite match the high price tag. Overall, I appreciated the hotel for its stunning views and excellent service, but there were a few areas that could use improvement.

I had a wonderful stay at The Headland Hotel and Spa, enjoying the amazing views and soothing spa treatments. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making for a good experience.

My recent stay at The Headland Hotel and Spa was a mixed bag. The beautiful location and stunning views truly stood out, but several drawbacks marred the experience. While the staff were generally attentive and helpful, the dining and room quality didn't quite live up to the five-star standards I expected.

Rooms

I began in a room with a limited view and issues with noise, but the staff quickly moved me to a more suitable sea view room. Still, I felt the quality of this room didn't match its price due to discrepancies in facilities compared to other rooms I saw.

Dining experiences were hit or miss. The atmosphere at The Deck was lovely, yet the slow service and issues at the Terrace left me disappointed, particularly given the price tag of each meal.

Facilities

The spa and public areas were lovely, though I felt the gym was small and lacking some needed equipment. The construction of a new pool area was also a consideration, but it didn't disturb my stay.
