When it comes to combining divine spa treatments, luxury accommodation and fine food, not many places do it better than the Fordoun Spa, Hotel and Restaurant. Tucked away in the tranquility of the Natal Midlands, Fordoun is a haven for peace and quiet, personal pampering and a place to experience a complete rejuvenation of the mind, body and soul. The setting alone is enough to transport you to states of bliss and relaxation, add in the splendid spa treatments, delectable food and luxury accommodation and you have a recipe for success.
Built on a Nottingham Road Dairy Farm, Fordoun Spa, Hotel and Restaurant has history that dates back as far as 1800. The original buildings from the Dairy Farm have been revived and refurbished with a combination of modern aesthetics to create the natural, rustic appeal that so perfectly combines with the state of the art features and furnishings.

It is not the least bit surprising when you view the luxury accommodation, the spa, the grounds and a typical example of a Fordoun plate of food. Attention is paid to every little detail, so much so that you most certainly will not want your stay at Fordoun Spa, Hotel and Restaurant to come to an end. Day visitors are as welcome as guests staying for an extended period of time, and bookings are essential for all.
The spa treatments available to patrons at Fordoun are both lavish and sublime. A full range of massages are available, hand and foot treatments, facials, body wraps, alternative treatments such as Reiki and Kinesiology, specialised baths and waxing. Appointments can also be made to see the Fordoun traditional healer. Yoga classes are available on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and private sessions can be booked for those wanting to go inward for some me time. Day long yoga workshops are also available for singles or groups.
The Fordoun Restaurant is another reason why this decadent refuge is as popular and highly praised as it is.
