I blogged last week about the wonderful sounding Farnham Estate in Cavan. It’s a luxury hotel with ace sounding spa facilities. But if you don’t quite have the shekels to be affording a weekend of pampering goodness, then how about getting your hands on some of the lovely products they sell up there instead?
One of the ranges they stock is Kerstin Florian, a luxe spa brand who create products are rich in essential oils and anti-oxidants. I’ve recently been using their Aroma Akta Lavender Body Oil which is just lovely, and which can be used as a massage oil, as a facial moisturiser or as a bath soak. Needless to say, my love of bathing has led me to use it in hot steamy water. As a bath oil this stuff is gorgeous – you’re recommended to use two capfuls and soak for 20 minutes, after which time you’ll be soothed and revived. Yup – it did that alright, though I confess I stayed in more than the alloted minutes, and topped up the water a time or three too.
My only worry with this gorgeous stuff is that I’m going to run out soon! In which case, I’ll have to take myself off to Farnham to buy more. Oh such hardship! Kerstin Florian products are also available in selected spas such as Randles Court Hotel, Killarney; Castle Dargan, Sligo and The Lodge Hotel at Doonbeg.

mmmmmmm I love luxury bath oils – gorgeous! Molton Browne is so yum too
The Independent on Sunday (UK) had a ‘Spa Special’ in it’s travel guide last week, they named the best spas in the world and Carlton House (Dublin) was named best Irish getaway! They have a Molton Brown spa apparently, anyone ever been there?
They also listed the top 5 ‘major players’ in the spa business: they were Angsana, Elizabeth Arden Red Door, Exhale, Bliss and Elemis!
A Molton Brown spa – oh how divine
The Slieve Russell in Cavan has a Molton Brown spa
and if you like this try the Ren High Altitude Lavender Bath Soak it’s absolutely DIVINE!!!!

How does the Slieve Russell compare to the Farnham Estate girls? Anyone know?
Gio you can get it in Nue Blue Eriu aswell. It’s SO nice, couldn’t recommend their body washes/bath soaks highly enough.
The Slieve Russell is gorgeous – haven’t had any Molton Brown treatments there but they do YonKa aswell and it’s just lovely. The website is http://www.ciuinspa.com.
