Spa breaks – budget or bust?

For those with children or on a budget, Center Parcs resorts now all have their own Aqua Sana health and beauty spa. The kids can go off to the water slides or horse riding while mum books in for some beauty treatments and relaxation in the sanctuary of the beauty centre. Elemi and Decleor products are used by the therapists, and you can also book in for a whole range of exercise classes from spinning to yoga. You can even book a spa day at an Aqua Sana centre without having to stay at a Center Parcs village. At £99 for two people per day this is great value. Go to the Aqua Sana website to find out more.

They have a great variety of long and short breaks including lunches, dinners, overnight stays and of course the eponymous spa treatments. Go to the official SpaUK website to find out more.
