• About Champneys Henlow

  View Treatments Menu  

  Set along the banks of the River Hiz on 150 acres of Bedfordshire countryside, Champneys Henlow is a health and beauty spa resort just an hour from London. The Georgian-style mansion embodies a late 18-century aesthetic, with upholstered furnishings, hand-painted interiors, and Venetian mirrors, and remains true to its 40-year history as a health farm, offering guests a wealth of fitness and pampering pursuits.

  The on-site spa offers original holistic and beauty services that date back to the spa's conception; guests can also unwind in the thalassotherapy pool, laconium, and steam room or work out in the gym, tennis court, or swimming pool.

  All stays at the 71-room country retreat include healthful meals, select spa amenities, use of the all resort facilities, and daily programming of classes and activities.

Facilities & Amenities

The River Hiz and lush Bedfordshire grounds provide a picturesque backdrop to many of Champneys Henlow's leisure and recreational activities. Guests can take a dip in the indoor swimming pool and Jacuzzi or hit the court for a game of tennis. Biking and power walking classes lead guests throughout the 150-acre property, and the full-service gym features LifeFitness and VibroGym equipment and two studios. Fitness options range from invigorating circuit training, dance classes, and water aerobics classes to more tranquil yoga, tai chi, and meditation sessions.

Guests can stroll the nearby country villages of Harrold and Stevington or pay a visit to the Dunstable Downs, the highest point of Bedfordshire county. The Downs is a popular spot for hang gliding, paragliding, and flying kites and is home to ZSL Whipsnade Zoo, which is among the largest wildlife conservation parks in Europe.
