A spa and a cinema by the sea at Woolacombe Bay Hotel

A sanctuary by the sea, Woolacombe Bay Hotel is an inviting coastal retreat, which has just undergone the largest renovation in its 40-year history. With the awe-inspiring beauty of the Atlantic Ocean on your doorstep, and a selection of ceremony rooms, it's an ideal spot to host everything from an elopement for two to a grand wedding affair with up to 150 guests.

Now, thanks to the opening of its new Alchemist Spa - complete with a beautiful rasul, giant copper tub, a thermal suite with a heated pool, sauna and steam room, and Natural Spa Factory treatments - it's a haven of wellbeing, allowing you and your guests to fully embrace some seaside relaxation.

 Located just yards from the award-winning Woolacombe Beach, nearly all of the 58 bedrooms and all luxury suites offer stunning seascapes - as do the hotel's restaurants, Doyle's and The Bay Brasserie. The hotel is also home to 31 beach-chic self-catering apartments just 300 yards from the hotel, allowing you a beach day before returning to relax further at the spa, or unwind in front of a movie at the private 30-seater Neo Cinema, which offers plush lounge-style seats and G&Ts!

Or, if you're after some more action, there's a gym, Bay Lido with heated pool, firepit, pitch & putt, and tennis courts, ideal for mixing up your activities on a hen party, pre-wedding fitness break, minimoon - or your wedding itself, of course!
