Five Luxurious Vegan-Friendly UK Mini Breaks to Escape To

Maybe you’re thinking about a last minute getaway this bank holiday, or perhaps you want to book yourself a little treat to look forward to in the coming weeks and indulge in a long weekend for one. Whatever the reason (not that you need one to reward yourself with some R&R), there are some fabulous places to consider, that will happily cater to vegans – and no, you won’t be eating just salad. A general rule I like to follow is to contact your accommodation as soon as possible to tell them you are vegan – it makes it easier all round, and it gives then chance to prepare something special for you.

 

 

Moddershall Oaks, Staffordshire

Nestled away in the stunning Staffordshire countryside, this lakeside destination offers spa days and spa breaks designed to transport you away from your everyday worries. With a menu full of enticing treatments, a special shout-out has to go to the Healthy Hedonism package, which features a glass of vegan-friendly and organic Skinny Prosecco, a superfood smoothie bowl, full access to spa facilities, a two-course lunch and a dark chocolate wrap treatment. As ever, mention you are vegan when booking and get ready for some pampering.

La Suite West, London

If you’re more of a city gal or guy, then head to the big smoke to check out La Suite West Hotel. This chic joint has a peaceful terrace as well as a state of the art fitness centre for the more active guest. The hotel’s restaurant, RAW, features a truly unique and delicious vegan afternoon tea – check our review of it here! Reservation strongly recommended.

Yewfield Vegetarian Guesthouse, the Lake District

One of the UK’s prized locations, The Lake District is a walker’s paradise and the perfect place to get back to nature, whatever the weather. This vegetarian B&B offers charming, stylish and traditional accommodation in the main house, or the choice of self-catering in the luxury apartments, for a minimum of three nights. Hire a bike, go for a hike, or simply snuggle down and enjoy a great book and a fantastic view.

Neal’s Yards Holidays and Retreats, Wales

If your idea of a luxury escape is, well, er, an escape, then consider the UK ayurveda and yoga Retreats from Neal’s Yards. With vegan food based on Ayurvedic principles and daily yoga, here you can relax in the hot tub, enjoy the beautiful grounds or go on a day trip to some of the local beaches and ancient sites. You can embrace the lifestyle and learn something new, whilst enjoying some well-deserved peace at the same time.

Hencote Estate, The Grange, Shropshire

This high-end private accommodation comes with an amazing team on hand who are available to cater to your every need. Whilst not a vegan or vegetarian establishment, you will enjoy the very finest in vegan cuisine with a private chef, and the thoughtful touches and flourishes are designed to make you feel as though you are truly at a ‘home away from home’. Yoga classes, nutritional therapy and fitness sessions are also available, and you can even have your own luxury massage in a private hut (see image above). This bespoke service is designed for your satisfaction, so whatever you need – just ask!
