Walk the South West Coast Path - Plymouth Waterfront Walkway

Take a stroll along the famous South West Coast Path and descend the stunning steps from Devil's Point into the Royal William Yard.  This great walk along a unique section of the South West Coast Path, the Waterfront Walkway is an entertaining and enlightening journey where art is used to highlight the city's history and heritage.

The Plymouth Waterfront Walkway links the Cremyll Ferry landing stage on the shores of the Tamar with Jennycliff on the eastern side of Plymouth Sound. Along the way, you’ll come across larger than life characters such as Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, Robinson Crusoe and Lawrence of Arabia. Then there’s the wall of stars, a golden scallop, a ten-ton rhino and so much more. The features were created by the artists of Why Not Associates, and bring to life many of the stories that make Plymouth special.  Total route 9.3 miles.

Gaia Spa at Boringdon Hall

Gaia Spa is set within the grounds of Boringdon Hall, Devon - a Grade I listed 16th century country manor house hotel, on the edge of Dartmoor, near Plymouth. Named Hotel Spa of the Year in Western Europe & Scandinavia at the World Spa & Wellness Awards 2019, Condé Nast Johansen's Best Destination Spa in the UK & Ireland 2018 and 2020. 

The Gaia Experience

Gaia Spa promotes your personal natural wellbeing in an environment designed to transcend the stresses of the modern day routine. 

Creating spaces where you find yourself naturally relaxed, Gaia Spa facilities and therapies will provide the opportunity to nourish mind, body and spirit, resulting in a balance between the individual and the wider world we live in.

Gaia rituals are designed to identify three levels of an individual’s well being, recognising the holistic benefits of treatments across mental, physical and spiritual domains.

They have been designed to be meaningful, connecting to history and tradition, with the aim that they are felt physically and that they are understood mentally. They are designed to bring a person to a state of wellness, this is more than the absence of illness, the state of being well is a sense of life, high energy levels, contentment, enjoyment and fulfillment, which gives mental clarity and physical strength. Wellness is about awareness and relationships, about reaching into your heart, being the best you can be. All Gaia rituals start with a welcome foot ritual and consultation followed by aftercare advice and a Gaia tea.

Well being in the Workplace

Our qualified facilitator will lead your group and give an interesting insight into what mental-health and wellbeing is. These workshops help organisations with building resilience within the work place and develop a more empathetic environment.

After learning the theory and gaining new understandings, the remainder of the session will provide direct and practical help by teaching skills and tools needed to overcome many of life's stresses. There is no need for any guests to share any personal or difficult information.

Laughter Workshops

This workshop can generate ways to work together even better, using skills such as listening, communication visioning, laughter and more.

Never underestimate a good laugh! When you have laughed with someone you can work more easily together.

By bringing laughter into the workplace, people become more resilient, motivated, creative and productive – altogether working better as a team member as well as individually

Mindfullness

Mindfulness is about putting aside worries about the future and the past and experiencing the present.

People have used it effectively to treat anxiety, pain and stress. It has also been seen to enhance creativity and productivity too.

Our experienced facilitator will help get guests into a guided mindfulness meditation. Guests will take away how they can apply this mindfulness session into their daily life.
