Top 6 solo nurturing wellbeing retreats
It’s never been a better time to go away on your own. More and more people are realising the benefits of a solo spa break on their health and wellbeing. Not only can you decide exactly what YOU want to do without having to consult with your travel companion, but it also gives you the headspace to focus on your own thoughts. Here at Wellbeing Escapes, we have been booking solo travellers for over 13 years as most of our clients do indeed travel alone. We know that safety is an important aspect which is why at least one person from the team has visited our wellbeing retreats to check them out. We also work hard to negotiate competitive prices so solo travellers aren’t penalised on price.
February is the month of love, but we want to focus on self-love which is the best love you can give yourself. Investing in your health and wellbeing is the best thing you can do and a wellbeing escape is a great way to do this.
