Pre-wedding spa weekend in Devon or Somerset

REQUEST:
I want a weekend at a health / beauty spa or health farm for my three daughters (19, 21, 22) where they can tan, sauna and generally have a relaxed time in luxury as a pre-wedding treat. The location should be within 1.5 hours drive of Torquay Devon. Thanks and over to you. William – Devon, UK

TRAVEL-QUEST SPECIAL SEARCH REPLY:
There are several possibilities in and around the West Country in Somerset and Devon; all now added to the spa and health farm section of the site. Very close to you is the Lorrens Health Hydro, a small, ladies only, health spa in Babbacombe, Torquay, Devon. It's smaller than some, but seems to offer very good value, with a lot of treatments included in the basic price. A bit further away is Cedar Falls Health Farm near Taunton in Somerset. A larger place with an impressive selection of treatments and facilities.
For a spot of real luxury you could try Babington House, near Frome in Somerset. A hotel with spa facilities, again with an impressive range and including its own 'Cowshed' range of beauty products. It looks like a beautiful place to stay! Others to consider are Bodi Essentials over in Dorset and, if 'small is beautiful', Home Place Farm in Devon with its mini spa in the tranquil Bray Valley, Exmoor.
