On Saturday night, Myself and Rob had the pleasure of a one night stay at Telford Hotel and Golf Resort. Courtesy of Spa Find we were given the opportunity to sample their luxurious Spa treatments in the tranquil and relaxing setting of QHotels.
Included in our one night stay was -
A two course light lunch, a three-course evening meal in the restaurant, an extensive full English breakfast the following morning and 1 x 60 minute spa ritual treatment or 2 x 30 minute mini spa treatments. We were also entitled to use the Hotels Spa and Fitness facilities whenever we liked.
Having never been to a Spa Hotel before, I was obviously overly excited. We were told our check in time was 3.00pm, but we could arrive earlier and use the Spa Facilities. With my excitement uncontrollable we set off on our little road trip early Saturday morning. We arrived at the Hotel at around 1.30pm and had a nice surprise when we was told our room was ready. The reception staff were friendly and asked us would we like our light lunch now or would we prefer it tomorrow. As we were both hungry after the drive, we told her we would like it now and she booked us in and also booked us in for our evening meal, while we headed upstairs and dropped our bags in.
Our room was gorgeous, very spacious and tastefully decorated. It included en-suite facilities with a bath and shower, tea and coffee making facilities, hairdryer, Iron, Ironing board and remote control LCD TV.

After our yum buffet lunch in the Hotels Restaurant 1779, we relaxed in our room for a little while before heading down to the Gym and Spa.
As we wasn't booked in for our Spa treatments until 5.00pm we had an hour to kill, so Rob decided to use the gym. The gym is equipped with high-tech exercise machines and also a free weights area. The machines are by Technogym and they're futuristic pieces of wizardry that
work with a wellness key system that stores your settings and personalises the
machine to your individual workout. Very upmarket stuff!

While Rob was busy in the gym, I sat in the reception area of the spa. It was beautifully set out, with the range of
Spa Find products, which the Spa uses for treatment on show and available to purchase. The reception staff were so friendly and welcoming and really made me feel relaxed and at ease. I sat down with one of the staff who went through the available treatments with me in detail and I was also was given a full run down of the amazing Spa Find products they use.

As Rob was in the gym working on his shoulders, I decided that the Back Ritual would be perfect for him. I've had quite a bit of back ache recently, so I decided to go for that one too. Once we had filled out our forms regarding any medical conditions we might have, we were handed our robes and slippers. Once changed we both sat in the waiting room until we were called for our treatment.
As soon as I entered the treatment room, the lovely lady who was carrying out my ritual explained exactly what the treatment would involve, what products she would use and also explained how each product worked with the skin and the ingredients they contained. She then left the room, so I could remove my robe and position myself on the bed, covering my lower half with the sheet provided. Once she re-entered the lights were turned off to create the calm relaxing setting and some lovely gentle music played in the background.

To start my ritual,
Salt Brushing Pure Dead Sea Salts were applied to my full back area. The sea salts felt amazing on my back and I coould have easily lay there all day while she just carried on rubbing them into my skin. The Salts also combine Vitamin E to aid skin repair and protect, and Coconut Oil to nourish and promote a soft, smooth and hydrated body.
Once the sea salts had been removed my back was given the most relaxing massage ever using the
Body Treatment Oil. It was that relaxing and felt so good, that I actually drifted off to sleep.. ha!
After my massage the oil was removed from my back, and the lady carrying out my treatment explained she would have to leave the room for a minute, to warm up the
Black Mud Mask. Upon her return she tested the mud on a small section of my inner wrists, to make sure the temperature was right for me. Once she started applying the mud mask, the heat and the warmth from the mask felt absolutely amazing! the relaxation I felt is indescribable. I was then given a full lower leg and foot massage while the mask was left on my skin to work its magic. After the mask had been removed, my back was given a thorough moisturise using the
Mineralizing Body Lotion which smelt divine!
The whole process was fantastic. I have never felt so relaxed in all my life. I can now see why Spa treatments are so popular. The Spa Find products that were used on me worked wonders. In particular the Salt Brushing Pure Dead Seat Salts, which I intend to purchase myself to use at home.
Once we were back in our room after our treatment, we simply relaxed for a few hours before heading downstairs to the restaurant for our evening meal. The meal was gorgeous, with an impressive menu to choose from. We had our own waitress who attended to our every need.
Checkout was 11.00am the following morning, we decided to get up bright and early though and headed down for breakfast around 8.30pm. The breakfast buffet included both hot and cold food and we were actually spoilt for choice as to what to eat. Again we had a waitress who brought up hot drinks to the table. Cold drinks were available from the buffet.
The whole experience was a night to remember and I definitely recommend
Qhotels if you fancy a Spa Day or Spa Weekend. The Spa Treatment provided by
Spa find was fantastic. We left feeling relaxed and totally rejuvenated.
