The Headland Hotel & Spa Torquay

About Us

The style of the Headland Hotel can best be described as gracious. It has the comfortable feeling of a bygone era. The hotel was originally known as the Villa Syracusa and was built as a private home for the Russian Romanoff family, who regularly entertained royalty at the villa towards the end of the last century.

The majority of our bedrooms enjoy a stunning view over either Torbay or Meadfoot Beach.

The Headland Hotel is an excellent venue for conferences and functions, as well as an ideal choice for a restful holiday.

We can cater for dietry requirements.
