Watergate Bay Hotel

Watergate Bay Hotel - Dog Friendly Hotel on Cornwall's North Coast

Set on a spectacular surfing beach on the North Cornwall coast, Watergate Bay Hotel is the perfect destination for a contemporary beach holiday. It’s a place that’s about the balance in life – being active, getting among the elements, eating and drinking well, chilling out and getting cosy. Most of all, it’s about having a good time.



The beach is on our doorstep, so from the moment you arrive the Atlantic Ocean and the rugged coastline are an ever-present reminder that here nature rules.

But inside, every part of the hotel – from the bedrooms to Swim Club – has been created to bring you the best in contemporary Cornish comfort.

Watergate Bay is all about getting amongst the elements, eating well, chilling out, being active and having fun.

Our love of coastal life and passion for comfort and leisure creates a culture that is finely balanced. It’s one of putting your feet up and stepping outside, of treading sand on the floor, a place to kick back, relax and be active. It’s of being at home, away from it. Whether you’re a family here with your children, whether you’re young or old. Whether you’re a couple looking for a getaway or travelling with man’s best friend. We like dogs too.



Dog friendly holidays
Dogs are welcome at Watergate Bay all year round. There’s no seasonal ban on the two-mile stretch of beach – it’s a permanent sandy playground studded with rock pools.

Your canine companions can join you in The Beach Hut and The Living Space and there are plenty of dog friendly beaches on the North Cornwall coastline.

Dogs can stay in first (on the ground) and second floor Ocean Wing rooms and all Coach House rooms. They are charged at £15 per night for the first dog and £5 per night for an additional dog. Guests are only permitted to bring a maximum of two dogs per room and dog food is not provided.



To find out which hotel rooms are dog friendly please call our reservations team. All our new beach lofts are dog friendly. Guests with dogs will be sent a copy of our dog house rules. If you’d like to see a copy in advance, please contact us.

We want to inspire you to discover what’s here. Look for cosy, secluded corners tucked within busy, wide-open places. There’s something for everyone and every mood, all year round.
