Galgorm is a grand estate set in 550 acres of Northern Ireland parkland, with the River Maine meandering through it. The Thermal Spa Village uses the four basic elements of nature, earth, water and fire to bring harmony to the spa journey. The idyllic woodland location lends itself to the indoor-meets-outdoor oasis, home to a smorgasbord of heated and cool spa experiences located across three garden settings. Expect tip-top customer service and attention to detail.
