Seaham Hall is one of those extraordinary finds. A top class country house hotel on the wild Country Durham coastline (though only 20 minutes drive from Newcastle). Not only this, it has top historic credentials. It was here in 1815 that the romantic poet, Lord Byron, married Annabella, the youngest daughter of Seaham Hall’s first owner, Sir Ralph Milbanke. The Serenity Spa at Seaham Hall is even more of a revelation. Linked to the hotel by a magical underground walkway, you can almost feel yourself unwind as the water trickles and a magnificent elephant greets you. Oriental in design and Feng Shui-ed to within an inch of its life, it offers over 45 different treatments. Built in the round, it also feels like a great space to explore, a property top quality spa with enough to keep you occupied even if you weren’t having a treatment. Facilities include a 20-metre ozone cleaned pool with massage stations, sanarium with crystal light therapy, sauna with quartz crystal, black granite steam room with amethyst crystal, snail showers, hammam, hydrotherapy bath with 12 massage stations, ice fountain, plunge pools, outdoor hot tubs and roof garden.
