The Rasul is a traditional Arabian cleansing ritual which uses copious amounts of mud and water in a steam environment.

Couples can enjoy the self indulgent decadence of the mud chamber followed by a shower for two in the exclusive double cubicle within their own private treatment room. You can also spend Valentines evening in an intimate setting in the magnificent ballroom.

From 7.30pm until midnight, guests will be surrounded by candlelight and couples will be treated to champagne and canapés followed by a five-course dinner with wine, and after dinner coffee and treats. Guests can then enjoy romantic live music and ladies will receive a complimentary gift.

Rasul treatments cost £75 for 45 minute treatment and the Valentine's Ball is £75 per person. Contact Seaham Hall on (0191) 516-1400 or visit www.tomscompanies.com
