Carden Park welcomes brand new £10m spa with Bollinger garden bar
– Nicki Kurran
Nicki Kurran, working alongside Barr + Wray, Pave Always and HB Architects, has created a new £10m ($13m, €12m) spa at Carden Park Hotel in Cheshire, UK.
Kurran told CLAD sister title Spa Business: "It’s been an absolute pleasure working with the spa team at Carden Park over the past two years, we’ve created a truly exclusive experience for our guests with some magnificent show-stopping touchpoints."
Covering 4,500sq m (48,500sq ft), the destination spa has 14 treatment rooms, three themed relaxation rooms, two indoor saunas and an ice fountain. Spa guests can also visit experience showers, a salt steam room and a tepidarium.
Set within the hotel’s 1,000ac (405ha) grounds, the facility has been developed to provide guests with a wellness reset using nature, and is claimed to feature one of the UK’s largest spa gardens, which is also home to an all-weather Bollinger champagne bar.
The gardens include five heated relaxation pods, fire pits and a garden sauna, as well as three outdoor hot tubs and a vitality pool. The garden is also planted with fresh herbs that are incorporated into treatments.
