A quieter midweek spa break
Quieter pools, lakeside walks and a log fire. Term-time weekdays are the easiest to book and the best value.
The spa, without the crowds
Midweek is when Lower Mill Estate is at its most peaceful. Spa sessions outside Friday to Sunday and high season are walk-in, so you can simply turn up and swim.
Enjoy the quietest, best-value weeks September–March away from school holidays. The heated pools, sauna and steam room run all year.

Midweek in every season



Frosty swims, log fires
Swim outdoors in heated water on a frosty morning, walk the quiet lakes, then come home to the wood burner, with logs provided.



Sunrise swims, long evenings
Early swims, paddleboarding at sunrise and long evenings on the south-facing sundeck, with charcoal provided for the BBQ.
Why it works
Walk-in spa
Outside weekends and high season, no booking is needed for spa sessions.
Best value
Midweek and winter weeks are our lowest-priced dates.
