The Summer Edit: summer spa experiences for vacation vibes

Coast to country, cities to scenic villages, discover the best of all worlds with spa experiences that flow from inside spaces to spectacular outdoor wellbeing. Come rain or shine, you get holiday-level relaxation right on your doorstep, whether you plan in advance or book a spontaneous spa break.

If it’s forecast for sunshine this weekend, book a last-minute getaway where you can lounge in the pool until sunset. If the outlook is grey, head to an all-weather destination where you can swim in the rain or watch the wind blow from the comfort of a stylish thermal suite. If you’re booking in advance and want to cover all bases, then discover a whole host of destinations that give you a choice of indoor and outdoor facilities to explore.

Reconnect with nature and get a little island-life inspiration in the home counties, swim on the rooftops in the spa town of Buxton, lounge in private cabanas overlooking the pool, enjoy spa butler service, stroll through scented herb gardens to spa treatments in woodland retreats, and bathe in environmentally-friendly natural pools surrounded by wildflowers.

Whether you're looking for holistic harmony or summer celebrations with friends, romantic retreats that feel like they're a world away, soul-feeding smoothies or sundowners and spa treatments, you’ll find it all in Spabreaks.com’s Summer Edit.
