Here are the facts about the Sanctuary:

It is for women only, you will only find women there. I have been going for about 18 years and tend to go once or twice a year. I have seen many many changes over the years. I would say its become more commercialised with the business looking to give less for more (£'s). There was once a time that you could go and it would be quite quiet, but there seems to be more and more larger parties going. There are lots of things to do in there; large pool surrounded by juccuzi (only 4 people at a time), sauna and steam room. Large Koi carp area there are refreshments and another pool. Another jucuzzi upstairs which holds 10. Another sauna tucked away - most people dont find it but its there. Restaurant - I feel its got very expensive over the years and you get very small portions. My ideal is to go in the area where you buy the products. There are sofas in there and you can order better stuff and eat it on the sofas. Afternoon tea is good - go for the scones - you get 2 large ones and they are lovely. Treatment prices have soared and in my opinion they are expensive for what you get. If you want to visit this place, but its too expensive, my recommendation is that you try and buy vouchers sold on ebay (thats what I do).
