Holme Lacey House 3.3 1 review

Latest Review

The first thing that strikes you when driving up to the spa and hotel is how beautiful the surrounding area is. The house is set in acres of well- maintained land and it feels luxurious and relaxing before you've even entered.
Holme Lacy House is only a 10-15 minute drive from the city yet you feel a million miles away the city smog and stress.
There's plenty of parking and as soon as you enter the building there is an immense sense of relaxation. I started with a facial and the therapist, despite being only 18 was fantastic. She gave the right balance of conversation and silence, and the therapy room was gorgeous, with plenty of fluffy towels, relaxing music and flowers.
The facial itself was lovely, the therapist explained what products she was using and why they would benefit my skin (she analyised my skin type before the facial).
After my treatment we moved on to the spa and swimming area. All guests are provided with towels and the changing area was good, although could have done with more private booths.
The swimming pool is a good size and was very quiet. The steam room and sauna were excellent, and there are cold water machines around the pool which were a brilliant idea.
After our swim and sauna we headed out for a drink on the grounds. It seems to be very popular with elderly people and many were visiting the hotel with a large group. There were activities like giant chess on the lawn and the atmosphere was incredibly relaxing. Guests are free to wander the grounds and they are certainly very impressive, with water features and plenty of pretty plants and flowers.
Overall I couldn't recommend this spa more, I can't imagine a more beautiful setting and it is certainly the most perfect place to relax.
