Yesterday, a few of our Green team took a trip a couple of miles up the road to visit who supply our breakfast apple juice.

They stop good apples going to waste which are collected from local orchards, many of which are heritage varieties. Luke and Amelia, who head everything up, very kindly gave us a tour of the site and let us get involved in some sorting and pressing. We liked the sound of the apples we were pressing being made into an experimental c***r!

Fentenfenna, where is based, is a working farm and a place for trying things. They grow food, support local enterprise, create opportunities for people, make good things from food that would otherwise go to waste, restore nature and work with others to see what happens when all those things connect.

Lots of inspiration to come away with and see what we can bring back to the bay.

It’s the start of the month so a perfect time to kick off our British Sign Language campaign. We’ve gone easy on the first short phrase, so this should be something everyone will be able to pick up quickly.

Going forward, we’ll be releasing another short phrase on Monday mornings for everyone to learn and practice with each other around the sites.

A big thank you to Amy from for filming these with us. Here goes…

It’s already almost a week since some of the team at Watergate Bay Hotel and SeaSpace joined Ruthy and her interpreter Caitlin for some British Sign Language awareness training. The Another Place Hotel Lake team got to join in the fun last autumn on this training.

In the next couple of days, we’ll be kickstarting our group wide campaign to get as many of the team picking up a few useful phrases. Each week, we’ll release a short clip on here for you to learn, signed by the fabulous Amy.

The aim is for you to then be able to practice with each other around the hotel and work to help prevent forgetting things we’ve learnt.

Don’t worry, we’ll ease everyone in and we’ll pin all the videos to highlighted stories to a BSL collection so you can find them easily.

Good luck and happy learning 👌

We want to take this opportunity to recognise and congratulate Judi, who won the Lifetime Achievement Award at this year’s Boutique Hotelier Awards, held at the London Marriott Grosvenor Square last night. This firmly establishes her in the Hospitality Leadership Hall of Fame.

Judi has been part of our group - Watergate Bay Hotel, Another Place and SeaSpace — for over 20 years, driving our marketing, commercial and operational strategy forward. She was part of the team that brought Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen Cornwall to Watergate Bay, created and grew 10 years of Polo on the Beach, launched the Another Place brand, which has two hotels, The Lake in Cumbria and The Machrie on Islay, and co-created SeaSpace in Newquay, among many other accolades.

A passionate champion of brand, creative and destination marketing throughout her career, this recognition is thoroughly deserved. Congratulations Judi.

And we made it out the other side. Boardmasters 2026 completed 🫶

It was a pretty outstanding effort from all, which included:

- looking after hundreds of hotel guests
- welcoming thousands of visitors to the bay
- putting on an event
- operating a new food venue
- and if that wasn’t enough, threw in another pop-up food stand to the mix

A little note from Sara, our general manager:

‘Thank you so much for all your hard work, I know there will be a lot of tired bodies and feet by now and I hope everyone enjoys some rest on their days off this week - it is very much deserved.

Thank you for an outstanding job.’

A brilliant morning awareness session for both Watergate and SeaSpace Mental Health First Aiders with Lynn and the team from .

Such a valuable 2hrs and we look forward to doing some more of these to make sure as many of the team can take part.

Some key takeaways:
- there are 400 different types of dementia
- the youngest person diagnosed with dementia was 5 years old
- caring for someone with dementia is about joining them in their world and living their truth
- it’s all about inclusion

Thank you Lynn for delivering the session and for being so open with your own experiences.

It rounds our Artist in Residence weekend off perfectly and everyone’s effort got full marks. Such a bonus to learn so many facts about humpback whales in the process, did you know that each whale creates a unique, identifiable spout pattern from their blowholes!
