Ardencote’s former Victorian Coach House was transformed to combine traditional with contemporary design, and in 2018 it has been further transformed ensuring that it’s at the cutting edge of contemporary spa and leisure experiences. Now with The Destination Spa at its core, it is a light and airy space that you can enjoy in a robe and slippers from the moment you arrive. A carefully choreographed thermal journey, The Destination Spa takes you through an aromatherapy steam room, Himalayan salt sauna, a tepidarium, an outdoor Tyrolean Kilo sauna, an outdoor hot tub, outdoor heated pool, a monsoon shower, foot spa and ice fountain followed by a relaxation lounge and a tranquility lounge.
Meanwhile, the spa’s pre-existing facilities remain intact, giving you a wealth of experiences to enjoy while you’re here. They include an indoor pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, gym, three floodlit tennis courts, squash courts and a dance studio hosting classes including yoga and Pilates.
When it comes to treatments, the spa uses a fusion of Comfort Zone, Tribe and OPI to offers a veritable feast of therapies. Choose from massages and rituals inspired from a wealth of global practices, as well as facials, manicures and pedicures. Also available are CACI non-surgical facelifts and micro-dermabrasion.
Please note: the outside seasonal pool will only be open in spring and summer.
