From the moment we arrived and had to call from 3 miles up the road to get the secret car park gate code, we felt we were entering another world....and we were, the world of Burgh Island hotel...what a special special place.

For years I've dreamt of going to this hotel and although local and looked on from afar. I never thought i'd ever actually go but my wife booked us in for 2 nights for my anniversary present.
