Spa break for my wife

11 replies

I'm looking to take my wife away for a 1 night spa break somewhere in Surrey/Hampshire. I've had a look at Pennyhill Park, but it's very expensive.

I would welcome any advice on other alternatives.

Thanks

Get her a yoni massage!

Groupon - see what they have on offer. I am afraid spa breaks are very expensive and you need to check carefully what is included as often most of the treatments are an additional expense and have to be booked in advance.

Well worth being sure she really wants one!

Bath is fantastic. go to the bath thermae spa with the open air roof top pool. stay all day and have treatments galore plus scrummy lunch. then out to the pump house for afternoon tea and a bit of shopping. stay in a cheapish travelodge type place in the centre of bath and she will have a fab time

Are you absolutely sure this is what she wants? Only checking as my idea of hell. I'm sure you checked first though.

Lythe Hill hotel (with Armana Spa) and Grayshott Spa are two good'uns. If you don't go on Fri/Sat you get better deals unsurprisingly... Enjoy!

try spafinder or if you are looking for a real budget alternitive try qhotels. they are a hotel chain often with a small spa attached. it depends what the priorities are.

Ask her! Honestly, these things can cost a fortune and it needs to be something she really wants and the treatment she wants.

I love a Spa break and DH normally give me a self-made voucher and I do the rest. I prefer a hotel and spa together and I am quite choosey as I want a certain type of hotel, not just a bed.
