Luxury cold water therapy
Watching day break over the ocean or floating on the river’s surface under a full moon; drink in the medicine of a life by open water.
Britain may be an island, but many of its residents exist in a world far from the reaches of waterside living. Venture beyond the landmark studded cities of the UK and you’ll discover a golden coastline that waits only for the brave. A coastline dotted with secret stone cottages made for artists and lovers, and sleek modern beach houses with infinity pools that plummet toward the ocean. Inland, lakes, lochs and rivers crisscross the landscape, hiding legends of mermaids and monsters.
Sit where the sea meets the land and whisper your secrets into a moon-blanched night. Send your worries away with the rolling tide and let it bring new life to weary bones. Steal kisses under midsummer sunsets, take bracing swims and batten down the hatches when the storms arrive hurling salt at the windows. There's nowhere on earth that says sanctuary like a home beside the water’s edge.
