Booking:

Booking use of the spa facilities

You do not need to book ahead to use the spa facilities except on Fridays and Saturdays when you book a four-hour slot (9am-1pm, 1.30pm-5.30pm, or 6pm-10pm). Saturdays can be busy and can fill up to six weeks ahead.

You also need to book if you wish to bring a group of 6 or more people (for details see ‘Group bookings’ below).

Booking a treatment

In order to book one of our holistic treatments please telephone us. Normally it is a good idea to book your treatments in advance, this is especially important for a Saturday or for a group. However, you can sometimes be lucky and arrange a session on the day, so it is always worth a try. A deposit or credit/debit card details are required to secure bookings for all treatments.  

Cancellations

A 50% charge is taken for treatments cancelled after 5pm the previous day. For groups the full payment is non-refundable within 10 days of the booking. 

Group bookings

We accept bookings for groups of 6 to a maximum of 12 people on all days except our quiet day, ‘Meditative Monday’. All group bookings require a £100 non-refundable deposit.

Please nominate one person from your party as the group leader and ensure all communication regarding your group booking happens through them. Group leaders should ensure that all members of your party are aware of the peaceful environment that people seek in coming here.

Friday and Saturday group bookings are for one of these time slots: 9am-1pm, 1.30pm-5.30pm, or 6pm-10pm. Once you have paid your deposit we will send you a booking form for you to list those coming, and to indicate what treatments members of your group would like. Please return this as soon as possible to ensure that your group gets its first choice of treatments. We then send you confirmation of the times of your group’s treatments and an invoice.
The balance needs to be paid in full (in one payment) at least 10 days before your visit, at which time it also becomes non-refundable. All Friday and Saturday group bookings are dealt with during office hours (Mon-Fri 9.30am-5.30pm).

Call us on 0117 970 6616 during office hours (Mon-Fri 9.30am-5.30pm) to make a booking or to discuss your options.
