The Details...

St Moritz is a designer, coastal retreat nestled in the tranquil village of Trebetherick on the sublime, Cornish seafront. Boasting breath-taking ocean views and a fresh Art-Deco style, it is a luxurious take on the traditional British seaside. Take a dip in the outdoor pool with its spectacular coastal vistas, relaxing in the indulgent Cowshed spa and decadent hotel restaurant. There’s chill-out sea-view hammocks and a large indoor pool, along with a soothing sauna, bubbling jacuzzi and revitalising steam room.

Stylish accommodation offers the ultimate in comfort and ranges from intimate hideouts to five-star apartments. Each has been finished with the hotel’s chic, contemporary look, featuring modern furniture, spa toiletries and stunning, natural outlooks. Expect romantic, coastal pads and sophisticated garden villas, looking out over glass-fronted balconies and patio terraces.

Choose a cosy double room for a snug, couple’s escape or a superior king/twin room for their quirky, poolside beach huts. Sea-view first floor suites offer magnificent panoramas, while Junior and Family suites have patios in the lush, hotel gardens and their very own sunrooms. The larger family suites include fold-out bunk beds for the kids and have sumptuous sun lounges for a relaxed, afternoon drink.

Larger groups can spread-out in the boutique, 2-4 bed villas, which offer spacious self-catering accommodation with gorgeous outside areas. For the epitome of self-catering luxury, you can even opt for one of the refined, penthouse apartments showcasing bespoke, five-star interiors and deluxe, private balconies.

Spend hazy summer days breathing in the salty sea air, drinking cocktails by the pool or having afternoon tea for two. There’s the casual sea-view Sea Side café and bar with its own gourmet kitchen, along with the fine dining Shorecrest Restaurant which serves creative, local dishes. Keep your fitness levels up with a session in the gym or head out to the tennis courts or for a refreshing morning swim. Trained fitness instructors can put you through your paces, while the exclusive spa team can provide rejuvenating treatments.

Beyond the tranquillity of the hotel lies Cornwall’s dramatic natural coastline, with its secret, smugglers coves and rugged, windswept beaches. A free shuttle service connects you to sweeping Daymer Bay, or you can head to the secluded Greenaway Cove which is just a 10-minute walk away. Sign up to exhilarating surfing lessons and learn to ride the famous Cornish waves or follow the Southwest Coastal path above the cliff-side caves. Pretty Polzeath is just a five-minute drive, while beautiful Rock and Port Isaac can also be found nearby.
