With dazzling views of St Michael’s Mount, this 20-room boutique hotel feels tranquil and secluded with an elevated position above Marazion. The contemporary rooms are spread over two floors, and the best have magnetic views of Mount’s Bay with its passing ships and puttering boats. There’s also a pretty rock garden and sun-soaked Terrace Bar where you can soak up the view with a cocktail in hand, before heading downstairs to the restaurant for dishes that are fresh, seasonal and elegant.

The decked terrace of this clifftop bolthole is the perfect vantage point from which to take in views across St Ives Bay. Kick back in a rattan chair while watching the sea stretching out to the horizon. Many of the individually styled, contemporary rooms also look out across the ocean – the suitably named Celebration is the largest, with a sunken bath for two. In the restaurant and bar, the menu reflects the coastal location, from the seafood soup to the Cornish sparkling wine.

Set on the water’s edge, Greenbank has panoramic vistas of Falmouth with its boats bobbing in the harbour and gulls wheeling overhead. Take stock of it all from the sun-soaked terrace for an al fresco drink, or from the cosy restaurant with its large windows and smart parquet flooring. The Lookout Suite is the best room for view-finders, where you can spend hours watching the world idle by from the comfort of your bed or private balcony.

Couched in a cliff on Cornwall’s windswept north coast, Lewinnick Lodge is the ultimate storm-watching spot. Marvel at the huge Atlantic rollers crashing in from the large glass windows in the restaurant, where the menu has a seafood slant. The hotel has six sea-view rooms, sunken into the cliff, where you can watch the waves from the comfort of your bed or bath.

    Pure escapism is on tap at this coastal retreat on the postcard-pretty Roseland Peninsula. It looks out over the sparkling waters of Gerrans Bay, and is set within seven acres (3ha) of lush grounds, with a private beach at the end of a woodland path. The rooms are classic and chic, with a nod to the nautical – think driftwood mirrors, striped headboards and a maritime blue-and-white colour scheme to reflect the views outside.
