It was like going back in time to the old town Turkish Baths in Newcastle Upon Tyne (in England, UK). They were built in 1920 for well-to-do businessmen and are furnished with antique shaving mirrors, polished mahogany walls and cubicles, with beds to chill out in.
Even the old gas lights are still there, albeit converted to electric.
There is a beautiful stain glass domed window in the ceiling, to allow the light to stream through.
I had a full body massage on the original marble slab, then into the 3 hot dry rooms and the steam room (wet one). All the hot air comes through 1920 grills. It's like travelling back in time. You then chill out on old steamer chairs (from the vintage days of liners).
I just bet that most of you guys would love it there, as it is an experience to be remembered!
I shared the whole place with max of 7 people at any one time, as it is a little secret these days!
