The Berry Head Hotel
The Berry Head Hotel is set in a superb water's edge position in six acres of it's own gardens and woodland, in the seclusion of the Berry Head Country Park, which is noted for its bird life and rare wild flowers.
The hotel is steeped in history. It was built as a military hospital in the Napoleonic Wars and was later the home of the Reverend Francis Lyte, who wrote the famous hymn Abide with Me at the hotel, no doubt inspired by the glorious sunsets.
The historic fishing port of Brixham, where William of Orange first landed to claim the English crown, is only a short walk away. The hotel offers relaxing accommodation and all rooms have up to date facilities as well as a baby listening service. The comfortable lounge and the restaurant, which overlooks the terrace, enjoy spectacular views of Torbay and the Devon coast.
The emphasis here is upon good food, wine and company in a rather special setting. Set in national parkland with miles of coastal walks, fishing, birdwatching and sailing at hand, yet close to the major resort of Torquay, this is an ideal hideaway for a short break and the perfect location for any occasion, wedding or conference.
Conferences for up to 200 delegates.

06/11/2010 (6 night stay): We have stayed at the Berry Head Hotel on a number of occasions and have never been disappointed. Staff are welcoming and very helpful, without being intrusive, food is really good and varied, and the hotel is all that you would expect of one of this rating. We stay 2 or 3 times each year and are already booked to return. Thank you for a truly relaxing stay.
