			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>This weekend, another Hallmark-friendly holiday approaches, but this one really is worth celebrating. Rather than inscribing a heart-shaped <a href="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3286/3335057660_e11023cb77.jpg" target="_blank">‘mum’ tattoo</a> on your right bicep, show your affection with a sumptuous <a href="http://www.mrandmrssmith.com/spa-hotels">spa retreat</a> (where you get to be perfectly pampered, too)…</em></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.mrandmrssmith.com/luxury-hotels/united-kingdom/wiltshire/whatley-manor">Whatley Manor</a>, <a href="http://www.mrandmrssmith.com/luxury-hotels/united-kingdom/wiltshire/">Wiltshire</a></strong><a href="http://www.mrandmrssmith.com/luxury-hotels/united-kingdom/wiltshire/whatley-manor"><strong><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-10528" src="http://blog.mrandmrssmith.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Whatley-Manor-spa.jpg" alt="" width="321" height="241" /></strong></a><br />
This historic hotel and spa in the West Country is grade II-listed Cotswold stone, and set in magnificent grounds. The tastefully decorated interior is neither too contemporary nor too classic. Book in for a Saver Sunday &amp; Monday this weekend – you’ll dine at the Michelin-starred restaurant on the first night and at the Swiss-style brasserie on the second. Leave a few hours spare to relax in the acclaimed Aquarias Spa and make full use of the hydrotherapy pool, heated steam cabins and essence-infused showers.<br />
<strong>Rates</strong> From £670, based on two people sharing for a two-night stay (Sunday–Tuesday), including dinner and full English breakfast.<br />

English elegance is epitomised at this Bath hotel by the perfect proportions of the neo-classical architecture, the cobblestones underfoot and the views of the hills and honey-coloured city. The hotel, which occupies the centre of this terraced street, is beautiful – classical in decor, and as comfortable as can be. The Bath House spa is acclaimed for being small-scale, serene and very, very relaxing. Their Special Mother’s Day spa package includes a one-night luxury stay with free upgrade, full English breakfast, a three-course dinner at the Dower House restaurant, a half-hour treatment of your choice and a gift from the spa.<br />
<strong>Rates</strong> From £330 a room (valid on 14th March 2010 only).<br />

From the outside, the astonishing grandeur of this Italianate stone house near Cheltenham will make you think that nothing inside can match it. But the flamboyant aesthetic employed on the interior will soon make you realise otherwise. The effect of cowhide window seats and comical papier-mâché ‘hunting trophies’ is a world away from the usual country-house hotels. The C-Side spa has four treatment rooms, indoor and outdoor pools, a gym and a sauna. Buy your mum a Revitalising Retreat, which will get you an overnight stay in the best available room at booking, breakfast, an hour-long spa treatment each and a bottle of Green &amp; Spring Revitalising Exfoliating Body Wash to take home with you.<br />
<strong>Rates</strong> £275 based on two people sharing one room (valid until the end of March 2010).<br />

The quaint and castle-toting North Yorkshire village of Helmsley is host to this award-winning, Victorian-built boutique hotel, where guests go to hide away from urban hubbub, ramble the majestic moors, or ensconce themselves for shooting season. This is a rural retreat that promises an irresistible combo of cosseting, duck-down-pillowed cosiness inside and wild, wuthering moorland out. Spoil your mother at the Verbena Spa which will be open till 9pm on the Sunday (so there’s lots of time to try out the aroma room, salt inhalation room, sauna, outdoor hot tub, heated outdoor pool, monsoon shower and ice fountain).<br />
<strong>Rates</strong> £79 a person for the Spa Special, which includes full use of the spa, a 45-minute treatment, light lunch and a glass of champagne. Stay the night from £280 B&amp;B.<br />

This clifftop coastal hotel was the scene of Lord Byron’s wedding to Annabella Milbanke in 1815. What’s more, the ancient stones of Hadrian’s Wall are only a short drive away. But if you’re all about the holistic rather than the historic, you won’t want to venture far from the spa at this hi-tech design hotel. Opt for the Mother and Daughter day package, on offer six days a week (excluding Saturday) until the end of March. Both guests will have lunch and full use of the spa, but it’s the mothers who get to feel really special with two spa treatments – a 35-minute massage and an Elemis Lime and Ginger Salt Glow.<br />
<strong>Rates</strong> £210 for two people, without accommodation.<br />
