We stayed at the Headland hotel for 3 nights with our parents and extended family members. We had 3 of the best rooms booked (or so we thought)!! This hotel has some lovely views. We booked the highest price room and so expected quality. What we got was an okay view, over car park but you could see the sea...... more

We were booked to stay at the Headland Hotel, unfortunately two days before we were booked in I became ill, being told by our GP not to travel as there was a possibility I had Swine Flu. I was determined to go, but then thought it wrong to inflict any possibility of illness on anyone else. I therefore telephoned the... more

We have just returned from a lovely break at the Headland Hotel. We found all the staff very friendly and attentive especially in the restaurant. The food was good. Room small but recently repainted with new furnishings and lovely views over garden and sea. Bathroom very clean but needed updating. Excellent location, stunning views. Whilst hills very steep for the... more

We stayed at the Headland hotel for 7 nights and had a wonderful stay. The location is as the title suggests on the headland looking out across Torbay. The views are stunning and the area is very quiet and relaxing. We were pleasantly surprised upon arrival, as we booked late and for a very good price. The hotel exceeded our... more

If you are under 65 years do not stay here, or if you are elderly do not attempt to leave the hotel as there is a huge hike from the hotel into Torquay. There were four of us ranging from 47-52 years and this place felt like an asylum. It looks impressive from the outside but the rooms we had... more

Had a family room and a single room next door to each other, we took my mother-in-law away. Was a bit apprehensive when i read some of the reviews, but the food was fantastic, yes the room could have done with a lick of paint, ensuite clean. The staff were accomodating with a little one of 18 months, they kept... more

We have just come back from a short stay at this hotel. The hotel is in a beautiful setting with outstanding views of torbay. The room we stayed in was comfortable EXCEPT for the bathroom which left an awful lot to be desired! The shower did not work properly and all we got was a trickle which, after a day... more
