3 of the best: Pre-wedding spa escapes
The Grove (featured image)
The multi-award-winning spa at this 5-star Hertfordshire hotel has glitz by the gallon – think chic white changing rooms, a dramatically lit thermal suite and a stunning black-tiled swimming pool. From the Bridal Bootcamp, combining PT sessions with body firming treatments, to the head-to-toe pampering of the Wedding Radiance spa day, there’s something on the treatment list to tempt every bride-to-be. And with no fewer than 18 treatment rooms, it’s also the perfect spot for stylish hens to head for the ultimate group spa day, not least because it’s no more than 30 minutes in the car from north London.

Soho Farmhouse
It’s rumoured that Meghan gathered her girl pals and headed to this members’ club-cum-country house hotel for a spot of pre-wedding pampering. And who can blame her? Set in 100 acres of Oxfordshire farmland, the Farmhouse is the first resort to come from the Soho House group, offering guests a country weekend with all the creature comforts. Namely the on-site Cowshed Spa (which should need no introduction), where the steam room, sauna, ice room and hot tubs offer glorious real-world respite and are complemented by a divine menu of manicures, pedicures, massages and body therapies. Bliss. (sohofarmhouse.com)
