Situated in 17 acres of private headland overlooking a beautiful sandy bay, Watermark at Porth Beach fulfils every dream of the perfect Cornish holiday.

Formerly known as Glendorgal, the property was originally a Victorian gentleman’s seaside residence. Today, it still enjoys an unrivalled position with stunning views across Porth Bay and direct access to a secluded sandy beach.

Following a complete refurbishment at the beginning of 2004, the resort now offers a choice of stylishly designed hotel rooms or self-catering accommodation in houses within the grounds. Facilities include the luxurious Watermark Health Club & Spa, and the popular Watermark Brasserie & Bar.

The secluded cliff-top location makes it the perfect place to relax and get away from it all, yet it is just a short stroll from Newquay and is ideally located for exploring the rest of Cornwall.

Drift off to the sound of the sea, with the ebb and flow of the tide providing an ever-changing vista outside your window.

Each of the hotel bedrooms has a seaside inspired name such as ‘Beachcomber’ or ‘Driftwood’, and they have been furnished in a relaxed beach house style with deckchair striped fabrics, crisp white bed linen and soft woollen throws. The luxurious bathrooms feature powerful showers, fluffy white towels and luxurious Molton Brown toiletries.

Our Standard bedrooms have sea, garden or courtyard views, while the Ocean View rooms have private balconies with stunning views across Porth Bay.

Wander down the stone steps cut into the cliff and take a stroll on the golden sands of Porth Beach…

The self-catering houses enjoy the same stunning cliff-top location as the hotel and are just a stone’s throw from the beach.

Ideal for families or those seeking more flexible accommodation, these 2 and 3 bedroom houses offer all the advantages of a private holiday home but with the benefit of the resort’s facilities.

All of the houses are decorated in a modern style with wooden floors and neutral furnishings. Each house has its own private balcony and decked terrace for al fresco dining, while the sea front houses have stunning views over Porth Bay.
