On site Day Spa: The Attic Day Spa at the Swantown Inn is a unique retreat that compliments our Bed & Breakfast. You do not have to be an overnight guest to use the day spa, but once you have spent a night in our luxury handmade beds you will find yourself searching for excuses to stay! Staffed by enthusiastic, professional and experienced, licensed Massage Therapists, the spa is a sanctuary or retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Specials & Packages

• Massage Package

  The Swantown Inn Bed & Breakfast now features an on site day spa.

  The Attic Day Spa offers massages from our licensed professional Massage Therapists.

  You can add an hour long Swedish massage for you and your partner for only $79 each. However our services are so much more than just a massage. You will start by relaxing and having a foot soak in our antique foot soaking tubs, while sipping a cup of African Red Bush Roobis tea. Then you are taken to a massage room and given your hour long massage. To finish up you can take a shower in our multi-jetted shower.

  Please allow at least two hours for your service, as one of our points of difference from other day spas is that you get time before and after your session to enjoy our facilities.

  Swantown Inn's Scottish Scones Recipe Details →

  Our moist and versatile scone recipe. A staple for every breakfast at our inn. The recipe was Casey's but Nathan made it his own after advice from his Grandmother, "Do not muck around and over mix! Just get it mixed and in the oven!". The advice works well. Some of our favorites include Maple Pecan, Cranberry Walnut and Blueberry.
