The Scene
The mental relaxation begins as the rolling green fields of the 1,300-acre Barnsley Gardens come into view. A feeling of old-world serenity continues inside the wood-toned, freestanding spa. Take advantage of a steam room, shower and whirlpool before and after your treatment and stretch an hour of bliss into an afternoon. Only the occasional blast of a nearby hair dryer diminishes the exceptional quiet of the spa's 10 private treatment rooms.
The Services
In the spirit of the more than 150 types of roses spread throughout the property, the Barnsley rose body treatment is one of the spa's most popular. The treatment's body exfoliation and steam canopy, combined with a facial and light massage, leaves skin baby soft and smelling like the surrounding flora. While the spa sticks to basic services--massage, manicures, pedicures, body polishes--a few special extras such as the Vichy shower and reflexology can be added.
