Recharge your batteries in Brittany

After the stress and rich food during the weeks leading up to Christmas, a 50 minute flight across the channel to Brittany situated on the west coast of France can restore your body and mind.

Leave all the stresses and strains behind and discover the mystical, heritage rich region of Brittany with its year round mild climate, listen to the sound of the ocean and breathe in the fresh, salty air for as little as £100 per person on half board including treatments and excluding flights.

Fitness programs, weight loss, smoking cessation, physiotherapy, beauty, and cosmetic treatments are available and can be tailored to individual requirements with all the benefits of the latest techniques combined with the special properties of seawater. Ideal for shedding those extra pounds piled on due to too many Christmas drinks and turkey with all the trimmings. Brittany’s spas offer delicious meals made with fresh local produce. Freshly caught fish, delectable oysters and mouth-watering vegetables, are beautiful to look at and prepared by the most talented chefs.

Brittany is famous for its 13 thalassotherapy spas. Each spa offers world class treatments and service that will bring energy and total relaxation. Brittany is considered to be one of the most experienced regions in the world for marine therapies and treatments. However, a number of Hotels in Brittany have their own Spa centres and offer alternative treatments to awaken your senses together with many activities and sports that can be enjoyed all year round: Celtic roots, horse-riding, golf & local produce such as Brittany’s apple oil.
