Your Devon and Cornwall Wedding - September/October 2022 (Issue 39)

BEDRUTHAN UNVEILS ADULT-ONLY ROOMS Inspired by its picturesque surroundings on the cliffs of Mawgan Porth, Bedruthan hotel and spa has unveiled the renovation of 32 adult-only Seaview Doubles and Non-Seaview Rooms. They provide the ideal base for surfing, unwinding in the spa garden, tasting the best of the Southwest at The Herring restaurant or getting crafty at the hotel’s creative studio. Red Hotel’s marketing director Emma Benney commented, “Our new rooms encompass the spirit of Cornwall and aim to help guests feel at peace. It was important for us to meet the changing demand from guests and make more of the facilities we have for adults in the hotel and on our doorstep.” The Scandi-style design combines bold colour schemes and neutral tones to create a calming environment in harmony with the ocean view. The Seaview Doubles are designed with cool grey and neutral tones, reminiscent of stone found on the beach below. True to the Red Hotel’s commitment to sustainability, walls are built from natural cork that’s fully biodegradable. Each room has a monsoon drench shower and a large deep-set bathtub placed against glass windows offering panoramic views of the Atlantic ocean. Guests can also enjoy a comfortable lounge area and floor-to-ceiling windows with uninterrupted views of the sea. The rooms also include sustainable refillable toiletries, organic cotton bed linen, Lavazza coffee machines and a selection of teas. Prices start from £210 based on two adults sharing. The Non-Seaview Rooms include sustainable refillable toiletries, organic cotton bed linen, coffeemaking facilities and a selection of teas. These newly refurbished rooms embrace a comforting, organic style with a variety of colour schemes similarly inspired by the coast. Neutral tones and stripped wood flooring are charmingly combined with vibrant colours including ocean blues, green inspired by the cliff-top flora and fauna and sunset-inspire oranges, yellows, and reds. The bathrooms of Bedruthan’s Non-Seaview Rooms are designed with cool greys and neural tones and host a monsoon drench shower and bath. They offer more space than the Seaview Doubles and dog-friendly options. Prices start from £165 based on two adults sharing.
