Set on a
spectacular, two-mile surfing beach on the North Cornwall coast, Watergate Bay

At Watergate
Bay, we don't just provide a place for our guests to rest their heads - we
create memorable experiences that they'll remember for a lifetime. It’s all
about the balance of life. Being active, getting amongst the elements, spoiling
yourself a little, chilling out, getting cosy, and most of all having a good
time.

unforgettable holiday experience Watergate Bay Hotel offers a modern take on a
beach break. For our guests, how their stay makes them feel is crucial; cared
about, looked after, welcome.

housekeeping team. Our housekeeping assistants prepare guests’ rooms for their
