The United Kingdom is blessed with a selection
of excellent centres for pampering, recharging, rejuvenating and
detoxing. Located in the British countryside they are usually located
in country houses or even 'stately homes'. Set in several acres
of grounds, perfect for early morning walks, they have tennis courts
and sometimes a golf course. Swimming pools are usually set indoors
with views out to delightful gardens.
A week, a weekend break or even a day at a spa
provides an excellent boost to the system as well as offering the
possibility of 'getting back on track' physically, mentally and
psychologically. Excellent venues for single travellers, both men
and women find the stress relieving treatments equally valuable.
