Inspired by the work of architect Richard Neutra, Bedruthan Hotel & Spa is a striking beachfront escape on the North Cornwall coast. It was designed to connect people with the natural landscape, with floor-to-ceiling windows bringing the outside in and making the most of the stunning sea vistas of this part of the county. Inside, furnishings showcase pops of playful colour and walls act as a  gallery for some of the finest work by abstract painters like Patrick Heron and Roger Hilton. Relax and unwind in the indoor thermal spa, which offers a place to chat or snooze (whichever you prefer) in the warmth of the hydropool, sauna, pool and caldarium. Meanwhile, the nearby Sensory Spa Garden is a an outdoor adventure designed to invigorate the senses, with a cedar barrel sauna, herbal scrubs and wood-fired hot tubs. You can also dine on delicious cuisine in the hotel’s casual Wild Cafe, with its oven-fresh baked goods and heartwarming bowls of seasonal ingredients. Or choose The Herring restaurant for deep, slow flavours, local produce and candle-lit conversations.
