It was a long drive, two hours from the office/home. But I found a small fishing village with a great spa, access was affordable (just 12€), they had nice outdoor pools shielded from the wind by glass, a 25-meter indoor pool, a good, dark-wood-colored sauna, a steam room, and even an infrared sauna (though with additional cost).
But maybe their worth would be more around other things than a long drive and a swim. The village is quite nice, there's small little shop, a boat harbor, you can rent cabins or rooms, and there's a salmon growing facility so you would get the freshest salmon right there. And there's a club house and a restaurant.
This would work as a weekend getaway destination even better than an evening drive.
In my case at home, I really enjoyed the salmon and bread I bought here:
