Forget those outdated stereotypes, Essex is a classy county, and if you spend a spa day in Essex it will remove any lingering misconceptions. Essex is a great place to opt for if you're looking for a great deal on booking a hotel spa, and you have a choice of coastal spas or inland options, from Southend to Chigwell.
Essex girls know their stuff when it comes to health farms and spas, so you can book a pamper day here with confidence, knowing that the best spa knowledge and most up to date treatments will be on offer, as you relax and let the spa day work its magic. If you get time, you can shop in chic Colchester or head towards the urban sprawl of Chelmsford - or you might prefer a day trip to Suffolk after a day of relaxation. You're close enough to London to tag your spa day onto a longer trip to the capital too.

Essex has been the talk of the country since the award-winning The Only Way is Essex hit our screens, with the region's own unique language becoming part of our culture - 'Reem' and 'Vajazzle' being two iconic new additions to the English language as we know it. It's only a matter of time before spas expand to include the opportunity for a Vajazzle, but for now spa days in Essex are varied enough to include spas in posh shopping malls such as the Dove Spa at Lakeside, and the simply adorable Clarice House in Colchester where you can spend a very refined day being spoiled in style.
Booking a spa day in Essex could mean that you get to sample a quick visit to a spa in a health club - Essex is well served with these types of spa which are absolutely perfect for a trial spa day or just when you want to recharge your batteries and not break the bank with a longer spa break. Virgin Active Health Club Romford is a good one to start with, as is Bannatyne's Spa and Health Club Chafford Hundred, where you can work out, go for a swim, relax and be pampered with Guinot and Elemis treatments as well!
If full on beauty is your bag, you won't be disappointed with the selection of top of the range spas in Essex. Bigger spas and spa hotels do offer a great range of beauty treatments to leave you relaxed and glowing, but dedicated beauty spas are also perfect for a day of me-time, so you could head to Lakeside and fit in a little spa love with your retail therapy session, or maybe try out the Saks Hair and Beauty Spa in Chigwell.
Any which way, there are some fabulous Essex spas…and if you want to go the whole Essex way, don't forget the spray tan and nails!
