Eat & Drink

Dining in
The dining room is best viewed in the evening when it sparkles with white linen, candles and flowers. A huge deco mirror over the fireplace reflects the diners and newly-commissioned murals add visual interest. The ceiling has an Odeon-like dome, lit around the edges, and so appears to float.

Dine on inventive modern seasonal cuisine with oriental influences such as buttered poached monkfish with braised fennel, langoustine and blood orange salad. Round off with baked frangelico custard with burnt honey syrup.

Breakfast
A cooked breakfast is served whenever you surface. Wake up to freshly caught smoked trout kedgeree from Burgh Island's own waters..

Room service
Available 24 hours a day.

See & Do

SSee & Do
This is a romantic getaway with a difference. Time your stay here with one of Burgh Island's dance breaks and you can spend your time whirling round the dance floor in between sipping cocktails. If your dancing partner is less than fleet-footed, you can always opt for a tutored wine tasting over Sunday lunch instead.

By day explore the Burgh Island’s 26 acres: there’s a seawater swimming pool, rocks to clamber over, sandy beaches and grassy picnic spots. You won’t want to hurry back to the mainland.

Spa
There’s a spa room where you can book a facial using REN products, a massage or manicure. Burgh Island is one of a handful of hotels to offer REN facials. There’s also a sauna and a gym.

Diary Dates

February
Don black tie and pearls and dance the night away at the hotel’s Valentine’s Ball.

September
Make sure you’re here for the Summer Ball, complete with fireworks, dancing and music against the backdrop of an ocean sunset.
