Where Wellness Gets the Five-Star Treatment
At Pippa Rose Travel, we believe true luxury isn’t measured in thread counts and gold taps, but in the quality of experience and the soothing of the senses. And when it comes to hitting pause on the chaos of life, nothing beats a beautifully designed spa in a wildly comfortable hotel, preferably with someone bringing you herbal tea or chilled champagne (depending on the mood). From city slicker sanctuaries to tucked-away boltholes, we’ve handpicked ten of the UK’s most swoon-worthy hotel spas that deliver world-class wellness, with lashings of style.
1. Eynsham Baths at Estelle Manor – Oxfordshire
Step into the Romanesque grandeur of Eynsham Baths, where classical design meets holistic therapies in an adults-only sanctuary. Inspired by ancient traditions and adorned with marble and flickering candlelight, this is Oxfordshire’s ode to opulence.
2. Corinthia Hotel – London
An icon of understated glamour, ESPA Life at the Corinthia is a four-storey playground for grown-ups who take self-care seriously. Think science-led facials, aromatherapy suites, and vitality pools—all with the River Thames as your backdrop.
3. Lime Wood – Hampshire
Where the forest meets finesse, Lime Wood’s Herb House Spa is a tribute to natural healing. With a rooftop herb garden, forest views, and treatments by Bamford and Sarah Chapman, it’s a countryside cocoon for the modern wellness aficionado.
4. Cliveden House – Berkshire
Dripping in aristocratic charm, the Cliveden Spa is nestled within the estate’s walled garden. Slip into the outdoor hot tubs or book a bespoke treatment, and let the old-school glamour envelope you entirely.
5. Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire – Hampshire
Set in a restored Georgian manor, the spa here delivers elegance with an equestrian twist. From the conservatory-style pool, to tension-melting massages and treatments designed to revive country-weary souls, it’s Jane Austen meets jet-set.
6. The Royal Crescent Hotel & Spa – Bath
In a city built for bathing (and Pippa Rose Travel’s part-time HQ), The Spa & Bath House at the Royal Crescent reigns supreme. Float in the relaxation pool, soak in the Himalayan salt-infused sauna, and bask in centuries-old healing traditions.
7. Raffles London at The OWO – London
Fresh to the capital’s luxury scene, Raffles brings its legendary charm to Whitehall. The Guerlain Spa is a temple of tranquillity, complete with cinematic design, cutting-edge treatments, and just the right touch of Parisian panache.
8. Chewton Glen – New Forest, Hampshire
A country house with serious eco-chic vibes, Chewton Glen’s spa is a botanical dream. From the hydrotherapy pool to treehouse yoga, this is where green living meets five-star indulgence.
9. Gleneagles – Scotland
Up in the Highlands, Gleneagles’ Spa blends rugged Scottish nature with refined rejuvenation. With signature treatments using local herbs and minerals, plus a 20m vitality pool, it’s the perfect place to reset and revive.
10. Coworth Park, A Dorchester Collection Hotel – Ascot
Organic elegance at its finest. The Spa at Coworth Park is an architectural marvel, blending seamlessly with its wildflower meadow surrounds. Enjoy champagne facials or unwind in the pool with floor-to-ceiling countryside views.
