If your bride-to-be loves a good pamper, Bath is the perfect place to come for the ultimate spa weekend. Bath’s mineral-rich, natural thermal waters have been used for curative and medical purposes for over 2,000 years.  

A spa weekend in the city will leave your bride-to-be feeling relaxed, revitalised and ready to take on the next big chapter in her life! 

Day One 

Daytime 
Take a trip to Thermae Bath Spa, where you can experience their multi-sensory Wellness Suite, as well as taking in the stunning views over the city in their open-air thermal water rooftop pool. There are a selection of different spa packages on offer, and a range of spa treatments also available if you want to treat the hen.

For a more exclusive experience, book a private spa session in The Cross Bath at Thermae Bath Spa. The Cross Bath is a historic circular stone building that houses an intimate and peaceful open-air thermal pool. Fed by its own natural spring, this beautiful building can be exclusively enjoyed by a group of up to 12 and you can opt for extras such as Champagne and nibbles. 

If you’re a smaller group with a generous budget, why not book into one of Bath’s luxurious spa hotels for total serenity?  Or you could book in for a relaxing massage at Bath Holistic Massage, get a masseuse from Ally Massage Therapy to come to you, book an acupuncture or aromatherapy session with Bath Natural Remedies or plan a personal yoga session with Hen Party Yoga.
