Burgh Island Hotel

Set like a diamond on its own tidal island, is our unique English Art Deco hotel. Built in 1929, extended in 1932 and completely restored to its ‘30s glamour, the Burgh Island Hotel is a retreat like none other. History is present in every aspect of your stay, hand in hand with 21st century standards of service and facilities.

The hotel sits sparkling in its special island environment: sea views, sunshine, waves, cliffs, floating birds and sand surround you. The beauty and intrigue of an island visit has always drawn guests who are looking for something different but an experience that is almost timeless; a genuine step back into an age of sophistication, manners and elegance.

Weddings

Burgh Island has over 6 years' experience of hosting memorable and romantic weddings and party celebrations. We aim to do what we do best: host an evocative, stylish and intimate event on your behalf with an evocation of our '30s heritage. Booking exclusive use of the whole hotel means that you have your own house party for your special and memorable day.

We hold a civil licence for wedding ceremonies and are pleased to host weddings and civil partnerships in either our Ganges Room or Ball Room, followed by an evening celebration.

Accommodation

Our rooms are all different in size and colour but all have the luxuries a 21st century flapper might expect: crisp Beltramé

linen, retro radios, luscious chocolates and bespoke soft furnishings. Our marble bathrooms all have fluffy white towels and bespoke Burgh Island toiletries. You can also look forward to unusual and authentic furniture, original pictures, news clippings and archive photographs. After our 6 year restoration project we are proud of our beautiful hotel and hope that you, our guests, enjoy its authenticity and charm.

Food

Our menu changes daily and is dictated by that morning’s market. We follow a local sourcing policy, which means that around 80% of our prime ingredients are sourced within a 20 mile radius, and this is clearly marked on our menus.
Our meat, which is all free range, comes from Aune Valley (5 miles away) and our fish is from the day boats in Brixham (20 miles).

Our lobsters and scallops, landed at Beesands (10 miles) and in Bigbury Bay (0 miles) are kept snugly in our Mermaid Sea Water Pool. New initiatives with suppliers mean that there is always a story to tell.
