Holm House

Surrounded by its own gardens, the Holm House Spa sits in a unique position overlooking the Bristol Channel. An elegant environment dedicated to wellbeing, facilities include a hydrotherapy pool with a tidal current machine and water feature, a steam room, private gym and a relaxation area with garden views and a balcony.

Teas, coffees and soft drinks are readily available, as well as light lunches, and of course the piece de resistance is the treatment menu. Using La Sultane de Saba products, the creation of a Moroccan family who moved to Paris, it is inspired by beauty rituals and secrets that date back to the time of Queen of Sheba and Cleopatra. As a result, you can choose from deep-cleansing, nourishing body wraps, facials and stunning massages, all harnessing Far East traditions with French refinement.

In a tranquil setting on the Penarth cliff tops with a view of the Welsh coastline, Holm House Hotel is an idyllic seaside escape. Contemporary design and neutral colours make for a relaxing vibe throughout the 12 individually designed rooms, that are awash with coastal charm. Choose from cosy doubles, sea and garden view rooms, large suites and those with feature bathtubs, all bedecked with fluffy bathrobes, slippers, fresh coffee, cafetieres, handmade welsh cakes, bottled water and the divine La Sultane de Saba toiletries.

The hotel’s main dining area is The Welsh Room, which offers relaxed dining in stylish surroundings with beautiful views across the cliff top gardens out towards the Bristol Channel. It’s open for breakfast, lunch, dinner and afternoon tea, meanwhile the Snug Bar offers a handpicked champagne and wine list which changes seasonally. The Tea Gardens are the perfect place for sandwiches and scones, and the Lounge Area is designed for catching up over coffees and newspapers.
