Calcot & Spa

Calcot Spa is a destination in its own right, set in a separate building to the hotel, within the beautiful grounds. A cocoon of tranquillity, it is indulgent but instantly makes you feel relaxed with its sense of countryside wellness. In addition to iconic features, such as its outdoor fireside hot tub in a lavender-lined courtyard (a treat at any time of year), it has an artfully designed sauna and steam room, an elegant 16-metre heated indoor pool and a state-of-the-art gym. Of course, don’t forget that with 220 acres to explore, you may like to head out exploring on a walk or jog on the the three-kilometre Trim Trail, or play a round on one of two tennis courts.

The cherry on top of the spa experience are the treatments. With seven treatment rooms and a relaxation lounge to retreat to, the spa offers a range of blissfully soothing treatments to nourish mind, body and spirit from restorative massages to results-driven facials. Harnessing the powers of ELEMIS and CACI product lines, highly trained therapists target specific skin issues and personal objectives in a collection of face and body therapies. Meanwhile, ensuring you can spend an uninterrupted day in the spa, there is also a dedicated spa restaurant for delicious healthy lunches and drinks throughout the day without having to change out of your robe.

Nestled into 220 acres of exquisite Cotswold countryside, Calcot & Spa has a reputation that precedes it. A stylish hotel that brings new meaning to the world of travel and hospitality, it is at once romantic, somewhere that friends can relax together, and changing the way we think about family friendly holidays. Stylish to a fault, there is a variety of accommodation available, from country style Cosy Rooms perfect for a retreat for two, to indulgent Comfy Rooms, decadent (and aptly named) Generous Rooms, private Family Pads, or for extra special occasions the vast Tetbury suite.

Food and drink at this sumptuous but welcoming retreat, is also always exceptional. Bring an appetite, because this is the place to tuck into everything from afternoon teas and lazy lunches, to full-on feasts and celebration dinners. Try elegant but laid-back dining in The Conservatory where talented chefs work closely with local suppliers in sourcing the very best produce. Or for hearty fare and a relaxed vibe, tuck into better-than-pub-grub in the hotel’s own Cotswold country inn, The Gumstool, famed for its beer-battered cod and Sunday roasts.
