The Well at CLIFF is a sanctuary of restorative therapies inspired by Ireland’s native soil and sea. Featuring two destination spas — The Well by the Sea in Ardmore and The Well in the Garden in Celbridge — each setting channels the surrounding landscape to create deeply immersive wellness experiences. Treatments are crafted using The Well at CLIFF’s bespoke product range, which includes Atlantic seaweed, carrageen moss, organic peat, and hand-harvested herbs. From sea-salted scrubs to botanical oils, every ritual is designed to revive the senses and nourish the body, all while honouring the natural richness of the Irish landscape.
Tucked into the cliffside with panoramic views of the Atlantic, The Well by the Sea at Cliff House Hotel offers a soul-soothing escape where nature and luxury intertwine. At its heart lies a 15-metre indoor swimming pool, framed by floor-to-ceiling windows that blur the boundary between water and sea, immersing guests in the wild beauty of Ardmore Bay.
Outdoors, the wellness experience deepens with a heated Jacuzzi and twin copper baths set on a tranquil terrace, where the crisp sea air enhances every soak. Adventurous guests can also take a bracing dip in the natural outdoor rock pool at full tide — a refreshing way to connect with the ocean’s elemental power.
Inside, the spa features four serene treatment rooms, including a couple’s suite, alongside a sauna, steam room and boutique fitness area. Every element of The Well by the Sea has been thoughtfully designed to balance revitalisation and repose, offering a truly grounding coastal wellness retreat.
Tucked within the lush grounds of Cliff at Lyons, The Well in the Garden is a tranquil rural retreat nestled in the lovingly restored Carriage House. This peaceful haven invites guests to slow down and reconnect, surrounded by rustling leaves, birdsong, and the timeless charm of the Irish countryside.
Inside, the spa offers a cosy relaxation room warmed by a roaring fire — the perfect place to sip a glass of bubbles or a herbal tea before your treatment begins. The rustic treatment rooms, with their pared-back elegance, create an atmosphere of gentle ease, where carefully curated therapies soothe both body and mind.
Step outside to discover a magical outdoor sanctuary: copper bathtubs cradled amidst tropical topiary, a Finnish barrel sauna, a rainfall shower, and a garden room designed for deep exhalation. At The Well in the Garden, every element is rooted in nature, designed to bring you back to yourself.
