The Scarlet, Boutique Hotel in Carnwalls by Harrison Sutton Partnership & Bauwerk

Located on the scenic cliffs of Cornwall, the 5-star Scarlet boutique hotel incorporates luxury and a close affinity to nature.The Scarlet team had a very clear idea of the ‘wow’ factor they wanted to create with the new hotel and chose the architect team at the Harrison Sutton Partnership and the building team Bauwerk to help them realise this dream. Sustainability is guaranteed by the use of durable materials, selected for their eco-friendly luxury and remarkable natural views in an environmentally sustainable manner.

The 37 rooms look out over the cliffs onto the Atlantic Ocean. Each features a private outdoor space in the form of balcony, courtyard garden terrace, or rooftop pod. A restorative hotel spa serves as a quiet, almost spiritual sanctuary for relaxation. There is a room full of tented, lantern-lit and cocoon-like hanging pods.


The spa includes a sauna, Hammam, meditation room, natural reed-filtered pool, and two log-fired seaweed hot tubs perfect for outdoor stargazing at the cliff’s edge. The Scarlet restaurant is headed by Michelin award-winning local chef Ben Tunnicliffe, whose hearty dishes are surprising without being pretentious.

Menus change daily to take full advantage of seasonal local ingredients at their best, and a comprehensive wine list features daily selections to complement Tunnicliffe’s magnificent creations. A low-key deli menu and Cornish afternoon tea can be served anywhere throughout the premises for an in-between snack.
