You don't have to travel far from Macclesfield to swan around in the lap of luxury. From grand country piles to historic thermal retreats, these local favourites are all just a quick drive from the town centre.
- The Tytherington Club: Just two miles north of Macclesfield town centre, this incredible golf and country club has a miles-from-anywhere feel, along with a 17m swimming pool, thermal suite and huge hydropool. But if you like to earn your lounge time, their state-of-the-art health club serves up serious fitness motivation. You can crush a high-energy studio class, try a core-burning Reformer Pilates session, or sweat it out on the latest Technogym kit before melting smugly into the sauna.

Nestled in the postcard-pretty village of Bollington just three miles from Macclesfield, the Garden Party Suite will be your private spa oasis. Fire up the two outdoor hot tubs in the landscaped gardens and let the tranquility wash over you.
- Shrigley Hall Hotel & Spa: Step inside this elegant Victorian country house estate just six miles from Macclesfield to discover the Bazaar Spa tucked away in the estate’s former chapel. The real showstopper here is the heated outdoor infinity pool, which offers breathtaking, elevated views over the Cheshire plains.
- Champneys Mottram Hall: Nestled in the Macclesfield countryside, a spa stay at Mottram Hall is the ultimate in indulgence. This stunning 18th-century Georgian estate sits on 270 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds and features cutting-edge hydrotherapy experiences, organic rituals and the UK’s first standalone Champneys Spa Boutique.

You can soak in the therapeutic, geothermally heated natural mineral waters of the 19th-century indoor thermal pool, swim under the sky in the rooftop pool and then retreat to the bio-thermal saunas for a deeply cleansing experience.
