A chance to really escape and unwind, Dorset has something for families as well as couples, friends as well as solo travellers. From the locally sourced food to the abundant activities, it's a feast for the senses. Spas in Dorset often draw inspiration in style and therapy offerings from the coast.

Relax in a hydrotherapy pool at a stylish boutique hotel or take the opportunity to let children enjoy a kids' club while you have a massage overlooking Chesil Beach. Swim in the pool or workout in the gym at a country house hotel where deer roam the extensive grounds. Or experience wellbeing rituals designed for top-to-toe pampering in Dorset's stylish town of Christchurch.
