Cornwall’s hotel The Headland has unveiled its refurbished ballroom following a six-figure investment.

The revamp of The Ballroom continues the ongoing renovation of the hotel, following on from the £3m investment in the launch of restaurant RenMor two years ago.

As part of the hotel’s commitment to sustainability and journey with EarthCheck, 37 pieces of existing furniture have been upcycled or reupholstered whilst new items have been acquired from local independent retailers and suppliers, such as Juzhz, Axminster Carpets, and GP and J Baker. 

The ballroom has kept its “elegant” style whilst the full renovation gives a new “modern” look to the space.

Commenting on the refurbishment, Veryan Palmer, hotel family director, said: “As we mark our 125th anniversary this year, it felt like the ideal moment to breathe new life into our iconic Ballroom. We’re absolutely delighted with how it’s turned out—the space now feels bright and open, yet still retains the timeless character of the building. 

“The teams involved have done an outstanding job. Over the past few weeks, it’s been incredibly rewarding to see guests relaxing with a coffee or cocktail, enjoying the sea views, and making memories in our beautifully refreshed ballroom.”
