Prominent across the inlet is the erstwhile Headland Hotel. It was still open at the time of this photo, but was closed in 2011. The building has now seriously deteriorated and in 2019 planning consent was granted to demolish it and to construct a larger hotel on the site. At the time of writing, it does not appear that the demolition has commenced. The hotel was used a few times as a location for the 'Doc Martin' television series.
