What Vale Resort say about themselves...

"An idyllic setting to soothe the stresses away

The Vale Spa is the ultimate location for getting away from it all and re-charging your batteries. Be it for a luxury weekend spa break, a pamper day or a single treatment, by the time you leave you will feel perfectly pampered and re-energised.

Facilities at Wales' largest award winning spa are 19 luxury treatment rooms, including three "double" suites, lavish changing facilities and an extensive relaxation area with doors opening out onto a balcony overlooking the pool.

The Vale Spa is only one of a select few spas, including the Bali Leha Spa on Richard Branson's private Necker Island, to offer the top celebrity favourite, Gerard's treatments. The exclusive treatments fuse Eastern and Western philosophies and its products are made using natural ingredients harvested from its own flowers and plants grown in the Italian Alps.

Its complete range of over 50 therapies and treatments incorporate a holistic approach to the art of beauty, pampering and well-being, designed to relax every part of you, enveloping mind, body and spirit in a scented paradise. The Spa has gained a reputation for excellence in this approach, with therapists ensuring that all guests are cared for throughout their visit.

Unique treatments include the green tea abdomen that promises to banish bloating plus smooth and tone the stomach and waist area, using an innovative blend of natural products including horsetail, seaweed and green tea from the equatorial rainforests. Designed to instantly reduce fat and cellulite by encouraging the body to eliminate waste and ease digestion -- leaving the body beach-fit in just under an hour.

For those looking to detox and refresh, the Gerard's pepper treatment is a luxury experience not to be missed. Enjoy a full-body exfoliation combined with a stretching, lymph moving massage that eliminates stress and toxins, followed by a white mud and pepper wrap, to leave you feeling relaxed, nourished and restored.

Shirodara, based on Indian ayurvedic philosophy, is an extraordinary treatment that alleviates stress, promotes relaxation and heightens awareness of the senses. The re-mineralising peat is a wonderful purifying treatment using the purest peat enriched with spring waters to promote skin renewal and re-activation of circulation.

For those wishing to feel the benefits of a total day of relaxation, a range of full day packages, using Gerard's and Clarins, have been developed to offer the complete pampering experience. Whether you are looking to feel totally re-charged, de-stress or thoroughly indulged, you choose the treatments to ensure your day with us is tailor-made to meet your individual needs.

Want the indulgence to continue when you've left the spa? You can add to the luxurious treatments, products from the Gerard's and Clarins ranges. The products are presented in environmentally sound packaging that enhances your experience here.

Nestled in the Resort's 650 acres of private parkland in the heart of the picturesque Vale of Glamorgan countryside, the Vale Spa is just six miles outside of Cardiff city centre and three minutes off J34 of the M4 - the perfect setting to experience total relaxation. "
