CROYDON
HALL Croydon Hall is situated in Exmoor National Park, just 3 miles from the coast of North Somerset. It is in a naturally beautiful and still setting of 6 acres of mature trees, gardens and terraces.
Leisure facilities include a heated covered swimming pool, a sauna, hot tub and a mini-gym. A lounge with bar facilities provides a comfortable meeting place. Corydon Hall is a wonderful place to relax and, in the extremely unlikely event of you finding the retreat boring, it has everything you need to pamper yourself. In-house practitioners offer a range of alternative and complementary therapies. There is a range of accommodation – from single to double, 4-bed rooms and a dormitory, available with or without en-suite facilities. Because there is such a wide range of accommodation, we can’t guarantee any particular type of room. We will try to accommodate your preference but ultimately rooms will have to be allocated on a strictly first-come, first-serve basis.
