Default Spa Hotels for weekend

Can anyone recommend a decent Spa Hotel in the South/South East - somewhere to take the missus so I can sit by the pool, swim, gym etc and she can go off and have spa treatments, pampering etc....

Not looking to spend Champneys money at £500 a night, but something fairly decent....

Any suggestions?

Guaranteed a good tromboning from the missus though.

The future-ex-Mrs-Paddy has it on the shortlist for our wedding venue and to be fair, it's not the most expensive one [genuine tears of pain].

Next time, give me a shout as I'm only 5 minutes down the road. We can have afternoon tea like old ladies.

I was an Usher at a Wedding that started there a few years back! The actual wedding was at Monkey Island in Bray. The groom was going to the wedding by Chopper... v cool. I was asked to drive his Brand new DB9 Volante down to Monkey Island though.... I gave it some by the little rounabout by the reception (chav knob that I am) and smacked his front spoiler really hard braking for that first speed bump


The Sunday lunch buffet there is AMAZING and great value too. Ever been?

No Chav boy, I haven't because the Royal Oak down the road in Frimley is £4.99 all you can eat FTW!!! Some of the meat even has signs telling you what type it is!

To keep it on topic for PONg, if you fancy coming down this way Frimley Hall is about half a mile from Penny Hill and still very nice and a bit cheaperer http://www.macdonaldhotels.co.uk/frimleyhall/

I'm off to Pennyhill to pick up a bumper for a DB9.
