Spa Breaks, Days & Spa Hotels in Torquay

A Few of the Best Spa Experiences in Torquay

Famous for its mild microclimate and palm-lined promenades, this quintessentially English seaside town was made for soaking up the good life. But once you’ve finished strolling along the prom, prom, prom, why not put down the bucket and spade and indulge in something a little more serene? Here’s our pick-of-the-best Torquay spa hotels and day spas…

• Lincombe Hall Hotel & Spa: We know you love them dearly. But sometimes it’s lovely to sneak away to a luxury spa resort without the kiddiwinks in tow. This adults-only coastal retreat is a quintessentially British seaside hotel with an award-winning, five-bubble rated spa. Blissfully peaceful, the only sounds you'll hear are the gentle whirr of the hydrotherapy pool and the clink of a gin and tonic, rather than the squeals of a family pool.
• The Imperial Torquay Hotel & Spa: If these walls could talk, they’d do it with a very posh accent. Perched majestically on a cliff edge, this Victorian dame has been hosting famous faces (including a certain Agatha Christie) since 1866. Boasting panoramic views across Torbay, it’s the ultimate spot for anyone who likes their pampering served with a side of sweeping sea vistas and old-school glamour.
• Lorrens Ladies Spa: Sorry, fellas. This one is strictly for the girls! Tucked away in a beautiful Victorian villa, this ladies-only day spa is all about health, wellness and total relaxation. You never have to take off your robe – even for a delicious, home-cooked, healthy lunch in the lounge – plus you get private use of the sauna, steam room and cedar hot tub. No awkward small talk with strangers required!

Spa Packages to Enjoy in Torquay

Saunas and steam rooms and spa baths, oh my! With pampering packages packed full of treats, Torquay’s luxurious spas will wrap you in pure relaxation. What’s included depends on the spa deal you choose, of course. But here’s a tempting taste of the delights that might be waiting for you on the English Riviera…

This sensational spa staycation lets you settle into boutique accommodation, enjoy a sumptuous three-course dinner, indulge in afternoon tea and make full use of the elite spa facilities. You’ll also be treated to two bespoke spa treatments – and with three whole days to play with, there’s ample time to explore Torquay’s beaches and boutiques between spa sessions.
• Morning Mini Spa Retreat: Ready to rise and shine with a smug smile on your face? There’s nothing mini about the raft of treats you get on this half-day retreat at The Imperial Torquay Hotel & Spa – except for the price! Arrive at 9.30am and ease into your morning with one 30-minute treatment per person and four blissful hours to enjoy the leisure facilities. You’ll feel thoroughly spoiled even before you’ve sat down to your two-course lunch in The Lounge.
• 2 Nights - Two Day Healthy Break: A holiday that leaves you feeling fitter, lighter and brighter than when you left home? Yes please! This restorative retreat at Lorrens Ladies Spa is designed to reset both body and mind over two nourishing days.

And with healthy meals included, this is the perfect blend of wellness and indulgence.

Exploring Torquay on Your Spa Day

Torquay isn't just a seaside town. It's a UNESCO Global Geopark with a weird and wonderful history to explore. So complement your Torquay spa escape with these quirky things to see and do in and around the English Riviera.

• Unearth ancient wonders: Step into the prehistoric world of Kents Cavern, one of Europe’s most important Stone Age sites. Wander through dramatic limestone chambers and discover the secrets of early human life beneath Torquay’s sunny streets.
• Channel your inner Miss Marple: Follow the Agatha Christie Mile along the seafront, stopping at the landmarks that inspired the Queen of Crime. Look out for the Agatha Christie bronze bust on Cary Green – it’s the only one in the world! 
• See the world’s smallest... everything: A visit to Babbacombe Model Village is a must, particularly after dark when it’s all lit up. It’s home to a tiny miniature Stonehenge and even a fire-breathing dragon!
• Taste the Riviera: Browse the stalls at Torquay’s bustling indoor market or tuck into fresh seafood down at the harbour. And if you’re feeling fancy, a Devon cream tea is practically mandatory. Just remember that in Devon it’s cream first, then jam, or you’ll be run out of town.
• Take a romantic stroll: Feeling loved-up after your spa day? Wander hand-in-hand along the palm-lined promenade. You could even impress your date with this lesser-known fact – Torquay’s iconic "palms" aren't actually palm trees at all. They’re actually New Zealand Cabbage Trees, brought over in the 1800s.
