The iconic The Headland Hotel has confirmed it will be attending the GTE Convention, underlining Cornwall’s growing strength as a high-quality golf tourism destination.
Perched above the Atlantic at Newquay, The Headland Hotel is uniquely positioned at the heart of one of England’s most compelling golf clusters. Its proximity to established links such as Trevose Golf & Country Club and St Enodoc Golf Club, combined with the recent rise of Perranporth Golf Club as a must-play links course, makes it an ideal base for discerning golf travellers.
For tour operators and destinations alike, this part of Cornwall offers a rare blend: authentic championship links golf, dramatic coastal scenery, and a hotel that delivers five-star comfort without losing its sense of place. The Headland’s spa facilities, dining, and wide range of accommodation options allow itineraries to balance serious golf with relaxation and wider lifestyle appeal—an increasingly important factor for international visitors.
By attending the GTE Convention, The Headland Hotel will engage directly with golf tour operators, destinations, and industry partners, highlighting how Cornwall’s north coast can be packaged as a compelling multi-night stay rather than a single course stop. The conversations will focus on itinerary development, seasonal travel opportunities, and how established and emerging courses in the region complement one another.
The inclusion of The Headland Hotel further strengthens Cornwall’s presence within the GTE community and reflects the Convention’s role as a platform where hotels, golf clubs, and tour operators come together to shape practical, bookable golf travel experiences.
As demand continues to grow for coastal golf destinations that combine outstanding courses with characterful accommodation, Cornwall—and The Headland in particular—is firmly on the radar.
