Where is Wander the Resort & Spa?

Wander is located in the charming town of Bloomfield, Ontario, which is between Picton and Wellington. If you are familiar with the County, you’ve likely explored these adorable towns. If not, make sure to set aside some time to visit! With adorable shops, local businesses, and delicious cuisine, these communities provide the perfect beach vacation vibes.

Wander is approximately thirty minutes from Belleville, approximately two hours and twenty minutes from Toronto Pearson International Airport, and about three hours from the center of Ottawa.

In terms of public transportation, there are trains and buses that regularly travel to Belleville and area. However, the transportation options from Belleville to the County are limited. Therefore, it is advisable that you rent transportation. Renting a vehicle also makes exploring the County more accessible as many of the attractions, accommodations, and towns are spaced out.

What does Wander the Resort & Spa have to offer?

Wander the Resort & Spa is obviously known for its spa treatments and packages. However, this spa is also an inclusive location that offers accommodation and an onsite restaurant called The Gather. Keep reading to learn more about all that the Wander has to offer!

Wander offers multiple opportunities to relax and unwind, from various pools of different temperatures to multiple sauna options and relaxing treatments. The pool area is beautiful with the sound of crackling fires to beautiful water features, and calming music. You can enjoy a warm soak, relax in the spa’s hot tub, or try their cold plunge and temperate pools.

In between enjoying the pools, rejuvenate in their Traditional Finnish Sauna or try their eucalyptus steam room. If you’re searching for lakefront views while enjoying your County Spa day, take a short walk to the Lakefront Sauna!
