From the Scottish Borders to the North Sea, the Cumbrian hills, to Tyne and Wear, Northumberland is a part of the UK rich in ancient scandal, history, culture and character, especially if you know the right spa hotels to go to.
Visitors to Northumberland are never short on entertainment, from those who prefer a cultured city break complete with boutique shops and cafes to meander in and out of, to fun-filled hen parties and nights out, seaside summer holidays and breathtaking hikes in the Pennines or along Hadrian's Wall. This is a destination that combines wellbeing, pampering and entertainment in equal measure… no matter what your preference.
While the region is blessed with everything from luxury day spas to affordable last minute spa breaks that don’t compromise on quality, one of Northumberland’s best-selling spa hotels is QHotels - Slaley Hall.
For those who have been before, it is of little surprise that this is a place that attracts spa goers for weekend breaks as well as spa days. The magnificent architecture of the country house hotel is all at once romantic and welcoming. Its consistently high ratings amongst guests herald its multifaceted appeal for groups of friends and couples alike. In addition to spa facilities, it offers activities ranging from clay pigeon shooting to quad biking and golf. Even the family dog is welcome.
For couples looking for a metropolitan liaison, Malmaison Newcastle is also superbly popular. The central city hotel and spa is sultry and seductive. Its location makes it perfect for exploring the city, heading to attractions like The Royal Shakespeare Company, Sage Music Centre, Castle and Cathedral, but when you return it’s all about cocktails, intimate dining and decadent spa treatments guaranteed to make you feel indulgent.
