A spa hotel near Cardiff perfect for a weekend away

1/3

This fantastic hotel in Bridgend is ideal for a quiet weekend break near Cardiff, and it’s also a pet friendly hotel, so the whole family can come along!

The spa and leisure club offer plenty of opportunity to relax. Whether you want to float your troubles away in the indoor pool, work up a sweat in the sauna and steam room or perhaps make the most of the spa treatment rooms by booking yourself in for a massage, facial or luxurious skin treatment.

When you aren’t relaxing in the spa, you can always treat yourself to a round of golf on the Southerndown course. A hidden gem in this region, Southerndown is particularly special as due to its terrain it is one of the driest courses in South Wales and therefore open year-round whatever the weather.
