Spa day/weekend

[Ducatista]

Had an absolutely cracking day at Aqua sana yesterday.
The facilities are really good at the spa can't speak too highly of them. They had a fish pedicure (normally £20 for 20 minutes).
The only downside was that the restaurants appear to be a rip-off. We went to the Indian. £100 for 4 of us for what was similar to microwave meals. We would normally pay less for better food so I'd suggest getting in the car(s) and going somewhere else to eat.

hmm weird, when I've eaten in the indian before it's been absolutely amazing - same for the other restaurants on site. Bound to be more expensive than the high street because they're feeding a captive audience..but quality has always been top notch when I've been

Oh well, it's just an opinion, I'm happy to go along with whatever everyone else wants.
We normally spend about £75 for 4 and this was £100 so 33% more expensive for us.

Bound to be more expensive

I'm not bothered about the cost, but always with a group we need to be a little mindful that some people may be on a tight budget.
But hey - happy to go along with what everyone else wants.

The spa facilities are second to none locally and I can't speak too highly of them.

Just thought i'd stick my oar in. The aqua sana @ centre parcs is out of this world. I took a young lady last week and had an amazing time. Full day for 2 was £70.
Bath spa is very disappointing. The rooftop pool is great but there are only 4 saunas and they're very basic. My gym has better facilities.
Go to Longleat, it's worth every penny and you get to use the pool and slides too!

Slides, you say? I'm in!

Just FYI, the sub-tropical swimming pool (with slides/rapids) is at the opposite end of the park from Aqua sana (but use of it is free).

The web site states the walking time is 20 minutes, I am told by two fit friends that this is optimistic.
There is a "land train" that goes around the site. It's a circular route, so one way goes direct and other way it will wind it's way around the site/villas.
It may be quicker to walk.

I'm not knocking it cos it's free, but just letting you know that you'll have to get dressed up to go outside rather than wandering there in your gown and of course allow time for the trip there and back.

I doubt it's a 20 minute walk as its all up hill from the aqua sana!

[Ducatista]

Yep my friends said the same, but that's what they quote on their site.
We never went because we would have had to get fully dressed and allow an hour just for getting there and back, but I guess it depends on what you want to do. We were quite happy to spend all day in the spa.
