7 Romantic Spa Breaks in the UK

Whether you’re planning a solo pamper or a romantic spa break as a couple, there are many luxury hotels around the UK that can provide some much-needed you-time. From day visits to overnight escapes, discover our top seven romantic spa breaks across the UK—guaranteed to offer you some well-deserved rest and relaxation.

Which Spa Break Is Right for You?

Spa breaks can range from smaller, more intimate settings to larger, luxurious hotels. The treatments offered centre around health, beauty, and relaxation but the actual list of services may vary, depending on the hotel itself.

For example, a luxury spa hotel is likely to offer all of the standard treatments that a typical spa would, such as massages and facials. However, they may also offer more unique services, such as Himalayan salt rituals or hot stones to enhance your treatments.

The location of the hotel can also play an important role in choosing the right overnight spa break for you. To make this easier, we’ve considered the best romantic spa breaks across the UK so you can find a spa that’s as close—or as far away—as you’d like.
