Alchemist Spa - Woolacombe Bay Hotel

Wellbeing is embedded into your stay at Woolacombe Bay Hotel, thanks to the scenic surroundings and fresh sea air that greets you on arrival. Spend time strolling along the three miles of sandy beach, enjoy a dip in the unique Bay Lido outdoor pool in the summer months, play tennis or hike on the nearby moors. Adding to the feel-good factor is the SALT gym, bringing you scientifically-proven equipment from both industry leaders and lesser-known trailblazers, as well as a collection of classes to join.

The Alchemist Spa is the cherry on top of your stay. A coastal hideaway, it welcomes you into a haven of low-lit relaxation. There's a thermal suite including a sauna, steam room and hot tub, as well as a tranquil heated pool, all set to prepare you for a treatment or two using the blissful Gaia and TEMPLESPA product lines. Opt for time in the oversized circular copper tub with face masks and fizz or even book a mud rasul for yourself or to share with a friend. Retreat afterwards to the relaxation room where you can stretch out on a plush daybed, hydrate with citrus water and relax beneath the subtle twilight lighting.

Behind the Victorian grandeur of the historic hotel Woolacombe Bay Hotel is a sanctuary by the sea. A tranquil retreat on the North Devon coast, they offer a warm welcome, contemporary hospitality and unparalleled sea views. Wake in the morning to vistas of Woolacombe beach, watching the sunrise from your bed, the waves crash from your bathtub and the sun set from the balcony. A place to reconnect and enjoy time together, there's something for everyone, with family rooms and spacious suites available.

As you might expect from a hotel in the heart of Devon, dining is a feast of local ingredients. Doyle's is the place for breakfast, unless you prefer to have it in your room, while the Bay Brasserie is open from mid-morning for lunch, afternoon tea and an à la carte menu in the evening. There are children's menus available throughout the day and when the sun shines you can even enjoy lunch on the lawns outside.
