Southall Farm & Inn is a premier destination bringing nature, produce and people together in a powerful and unique way. Much like the land that surrounds it, The Spa at Southall is restorative and replenishing, a journey unto itself rooted in the healing properties of the earth. It’s a nourishing, calming experience, with a host of ancient techniques and modern therapies that draw upon the botanicals and other natural ingredients inspired by, and derived from, our farm. The spa features eight individual treatment rooms, two suites, and indulgent amenities that include a steam room, sauna, and relaxation lounge—as well as an outdoor mineral pool overlooking Lake Mishkin and a medicinal herb garden, offering respite and adding to the deep sense of connection. Healthy options, such as salads, smoothies, and fresh juices, are also available and can be enjoyed post-treatment beside Luca’s Garden, surrounded by fragrant herbs and blooms.
