Foxhills Spa at Old Down Estate - Bristol

Nicky Jones

Absolutely perfect!
I treated a dear friend of mine to a half day spa at Foxhills.
From the moment we arrived nothing was to much trouble for the lady looking after us I'm only sorry I didn't remember her name she was so friendly and welcoming.
All the area's of the spa were spotlessly clean. We spent time in the relaxation room and garden including the hot tub.
We both had a 25min back shoulder and neck massage this so good.
We didn't get to use the pool area as it was such a sunny day. It certainly looked very welcoming though.
Afternoon tea was served in the relaxation room which was so delicious had to take some of the cakes home.
We could help ourselves to the refreshments for the four hours we were there which included tea, coffee, soft drinks and alcoholic ones.
A bonus was we has the place completely to ourselves as nobody else booked in being a Tuesday afternoon, I understand the Spa caters for just eight people at a time which is perfect for a friends gathering which is small and intimate.
Robes and towels were included, just remember to bring your clean flip flops!
Thank you Foxhills a lovely afternoon ?

Our second visit to Foxhills and we loved it! Cream teas are delicious, massage was incredible, the staff are friendly and courteous and the gardens are beautiful. There are free refreshments during your visit (including prosecco) and you can use the swimming pool, outdoor jacuzzi and all of the indoor/outdoor spaces as you please. We will definitely be visiting again. ?

Fabulous start to finish. We chose a half day spa, with back,neck, & shoulder massage. The treatment rooms were lovely, and the treatment itself was perfect.
The sfaff were courteous and very friendly, the spa was immaculate. It has beautiful gardens with numerous seating areas and a large hot tub.
We had an afternoon tea included in the package , which went beyond expectations and we couldn’t eat it all, so we’re given a lovely box to take away the remainder. Drinks ( hot, soft, and alcoholic) are included, from a well stocked refreshment bar that you can just help yourself from.
,we thorough enjoyed our day, it was so relaxed and as only 2 other clients there it felt very exclusive. I understand they only book in a maximum of 8 clients at a time anyway. We will definitely be going again in the near future.

Had a lovely half day spa experience here, with absolutely delicious afternoon tea! We came on a Sunday and were the only two people there, which was such a treat.

Even though it was winter we enjoyed sitting in the chilly garden with a cuppa, then warming up in the hot tub - it must be gorgeous out there in the summer.

The indoor pool area (and in fact every area) was spotlessly clean, and the relaxation room with open access to hot and cold drinks throughout was a great touch.

I was initially a bit reluctant to book the spa day here because there's no sauna or steam room, but actually it was great regardless (although I definitely think there'd be space in the garden for a barrel sauna and I bet that would be a big hit).

Overall, a wonderful birthday treat where we felt looked after and spoilt rotten, with excellent food - and for a reasonable price. A real hidden gem. I will definitely be back!

I had a fantastic hot stone massage with Sophie yesterday. I have had the same treatment there a couple of times before and I enjoyed all of them. I can thoroughly recommend it. Also thanks to the team for sorting out my Spa voucher as part of the payment for my treatment

Very nice but small spa, private and lovely gardens. Massages great. I went for a spa day but unfortunately the hot tub was being cleaned at the time but the staff were kind to give us vouchers to return again for free. Afternoon tea great! Overall a relaxing experience. Only improvements would be to have a sauna or steam room or jets in the pool:)

Went on a Monday morning & had the place to ourselves, which was just as well as someone had called in sick. I was called the Fri before to say there was no hot water but it should be fixed by Monday. Upon arrival I asked if there was any hot water, the ladies at the reception didn't know anything about it, and there was still no hot water. Was shown around by a member of the team who kept her coat on the whole time. This is a small venue so only three changing cubicles and one shower/toilet to serve all three. Absolutely beautiful gardens outside. Had our facials then went out to the hot tub, which at 40° it was so hot it gave me a migraine so we got out after 10 mins for a swim in the pool. Pool was absolutely freezing, neither of us managed going any deeper than thighs. Came inside for a nice afternoon tea, although the scones were rock hard everything else was fresh and tastes lovely along with very good presentation. Small drinks area in relaxation room, but no bin for used cups, no side tables to put your drink next to the lounging chairs, nowhere to refill water jug and while they stocked wine, bubbles, orange & apple juice, along with plenty of tea/coffee there was only two soft drink options or water. Not given a spoon for the mouse dessert so used a tea spoon, but that didn't fit the pot so ended up using a knife to get the last bit out the bottom, no spoons or knives for clotted cream and jam. Floor in changing area was solid wood so not sure how easy it would be to keep hygienically clean like at the pool. Treatment was nice and bed comfy but being able to hear kids screaming outside didn't give for a relaxing experience, obviously this wasn't their fault but just something to bear in mind that this will most likely happen due to venue lay out. dangerous hidden step up to enter the bathroom upstairs, with no warning sign anywhere. not at all accessible to wheelchair users. I am disabled but walking so managed ok, although the stairs up were winding, no disabled toilet or cubicle, none of the door frames would have fit a wheelchair & no hoist or equipment for someone to use the pool. Lots of little things that all mounted up to us deciding we would go elsewhere next time as it's a similar price for better overall experience
