Extraordinary Chaos: Woodland Spa, The Sunset Spa Offer

Yesterday Chris and I visited the Woodland Spa at Crow Wood for the Sunset Spa, I went last week with my lovely friend Louise and decided to rebook and take Chris. Firstly I will talk about the offer; The Spa experience for two people including a two-course dinner and bottle of prosecco. It is such a great offer, on until the 30th June 2014, and is valid from 4.30pm Monday to Thursday.

The Entrance to the Spa

I could not really take pictures in the spa and wanted to chill out so left my phone in the locker, but I have found some images to show how fab it is.

Reception

The Spa area is fabulous and consists of a central hydrotherapy pool surrounded by a variety of saunas, steam rooms, Roman footbaths and a shower experience. This area has beds all around to chill, and read a book.

Hydrotherapy Pool Area

There is also a serenity pool, this is so relaxing and tranquil this area is darker and had sun beds all around to relax and have a snooze. (Chris did, he said he never, but I read a magazine for a good 20 minutes)

The outside pool

The outside area is fantastic, an infinity pool, what I loved about this is that you get in the pool from inside the building and swim out, so easy to get into. There were also two hot tubs, we sat in these for ages and the great thing is; there is a bar so we were able to have a nice glass of wine brought to us in the hot tub. And sometimes hot tubs have too many chemicals in, these didn’t.

Bar Area

Once we were ready we went up to Bertram's for dinner, last week is the first time I have been here, I cannot believe I left it so long. I felt Bertram's has more of a city restaurant feel, very contemporary; we could have been in Manchester apart from the beautiful views over Pendle.

Mmm Mussels

We upgraded and bought a starter as we were starving after swimming 15 lengths in the pool, yes I know not that far but we were meant to be chilling. I chose Mussels for starter, Salmon and crayfish linguini and mulled fruit crème brûlée for pudding. It all tasted great.

So Delicious

I love mussels and the creamy white while sauce was amazing, the linguini was lovely very rich and filling but good, and the mulled fruit creme brûlée was epic. I am not a pudding person but this was just epic. The prosecco was very nice too, sometimes-free bottles of fizz are not worth drinking but this was very nice.
