The Spa at Breedon Priory is a haven in every sense of the word.

Nestled within 24 acres of countryside in the heart of the East Midlands, the spa offers its clients a calm oasis to feel relaxed and revived.

Breedon Priory

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Breedon Priory since April 2021. Their discerning approach to guest satisfaction requires attention to detail and, often, the efficiency to deliver within a quick turnaround.

We were delighted to supply them with a range of bespoke spa towels, linens and accessories – and equally delighted so by the reaction our products inspired.

PURE INDULGENCE

The Spa at Breedon Priory is an indulgent environment, with each detail carefully considered to enhance their guests’ experience and, importantly, their wellbeing.

Feeling immersed in the tranquillity of the spa is heightened by the luxurious linens and accessories that are selected.

With our experience of the specific needs of a day spa, we recommended spa towels, robes and treatment linen that would deliver on feel, quality and durability, with the required choice of colour palette, fabric weight and texture.

It was also important that we could reassure Breedon Priory that availability and continuity of supply could be maintained for their thriving business.

HOSPITALITY SUITE

We supplied The Spa at Breedon Priory with a full suite of products to make their guests’ experience as luxurious as possible, whilst ensuring the practicality of easy to launder, quick drying fabrics.

ECO-FRIENDLY FOCUS

Energy saving and environmental issues are high on the agenda for every spa managing a high client turnover. Breedon Priory wanted to balance these important aspects with the comfort of their guests. Our range of eco-friendly towels provided the perfect solution.

Our SupremeSoft range is beautifully soft, and the blended cotton is ideal for spa treatments as it absorbs less oil. The lightweight fabric means that 70% less energy is used, and drying time is improved by 31% compared to traditional towelling.

Breedon Priory chose our treatment blankets, couch covers, our jumbo sheets with head holes and bathrobes in a range of sizes.

Our SmartKnit hand towels are available in two sumptuous weights – 450gsm and 550gsm. Breedon Priory were impressed by the knitted weave of this towel – it will not pull or tear, so it’s long-lasting, and also has the energy saving benefits of our SupremeSoft range.

ALL-IMPORTANT TOUCHES

Breedon Priory recognised our Comfy manicure towel as a cost-effective choice. It retains its soft fluffiness, whilst its smaller size is both practical and saves on laundry costs.

Soft and luxurious, our stylish waffle Serenity Lounge Chair Covers were chosen to dress the poolside chairs at The Spa at Breedon Priory. With a large sewn pocket at one end, the covers stay put and their lightweight yet absorbent fabric is easy to wash and quick to dry. Our flip flops are the perfect additional poolside touch that spa guests love to take home.

BRAND EQUITY

We were pleased to carefully replicate The Spa at Breedon Priory logo on their flip flops, towels, bathrobes and treatment blankets. Jemma Whitney, Spa Director, was clearly thrilled with the results:

The embroidery is always perfectly placed and each new order is identical to the last.

The guests love to take home their ‘The Spa at Breedon Priory’ customised flip flops and re-wear these time and time again.

The quality of the products from BC SoftWear is second to none, the innovative SupremeSoft collection is our preferred choice for the quick drying time and luxurious feel for our guests.

Leading spa textiles supplier, BC SoftWear, has expanded its reach once more with a string of new partnerships at high-end UK spa developments.

Already the spa linens company of choice for many of the UK’s most prestigious spas, BC SoftWear has now added Yorkshire Spa Retreat, Laceby Manor, Manor House Alsager, The Lowry and Breedon Priory to its growing list of spa partners.

Karen Hesketh, Business Development Manager at BC SoftWear, says: “It’s an honour to have been selected by some of the best new spas in the country – increasingly BC SoftWear is becoming the go-to for high end spas and we’re proud to service their textile needs. It’s nice to see new spas branching out and choosing something different, and to be able to meet those very individual demands from growing businesses.

“Yorkshire Spa Retreat in particular has pushed boundaries, selecting bespoke hooded robes for extra guest comfort when using their natural wild swimming pool. This trend for bespoke items is showing no sign of abating – spas want to stand out as different while still being practical, and bespoke offerings are also a great way to increase secondary spend.”

At the Spa at Laceby Manor, 650gsm jumbo sheets have been selected to go over clients on the treatment bed, creating a generous and sumptuous feel. In the quirky and rustic garden spa at Manor House Alsager, the emphasis is on comfort and warmth in the outdoor space.

General manager and founder, Jess Mellors, says: “It has been great to work with BC SoftWear, the quality is consistently high and we have always received excellent service. Our lido towels have become a signature part of the spa’s charm. With the majority of our spa experiences outside, BC Softwear’s cosy, warm robes are a high priority item for us.”

“The Spa at Breedon Priory is proud to partner with BC SoftWear, who share our commitment to sustainability,” says Spa Director Jemma Whitney at Breedon Priory.

“Their Smart Knit eco range manages to deliver premium products with quick washing and drying times to cut down on our energy consumption, with no compromise in quality.

“BC SoftWear always provide a high standard of embroidery on all items ordered with quick and efficient delivery; this is reassuring for our growing business.”

Kas Wilson, spa manager at Yorkshire Spa Retreat, adds: “I can’t fault the service and quality of the products we’ve received from BC SoftWear. Their ability to personalise our robes, bedding and flip flops gives an exclusive and luxurious feel. The treatment bedding is second to none – we struggle to get the guests off the couch, they are so cosy! If you are looking for long-lasting, high-quality bedding, BC Softwear is the one.”

Leading hotel and spa textiles supplier, BC SoftWear, has been chosen to supply robes and towels to a series of unique new build hotels, all of which were built during the pandemic.

The new partnerships, all with brand new UK hotel developments, include the distinctive Chateau Denmark in London, the Mayfair Townhouse, also in London, Haycock Manor in East Anglia and Cashel Palace in Co. Tipperary, Ireland, Fairmont Windsor Park, The Retreat at Elcot Park and TwentyTwo London.

“What’s significant is that each of these hotels have all opted for something different, something above and beyond,” explains BC SoftWear CEO and founder, Barbara Cooke. “White towels and robes have been the standard in high end hotels for the 20 years that BC SoftWear has been in business. Now properties are being much bolder and in particular choosing colour. Even 10 years ago, anything other than white was unheard of. Each of our new partner hotels have made a shift towards uniqueness, some with colour, some with the exceptional quality of the robe they’ve select, some with intricately stitched motifs and bespoke embroidered labels.

“This move towards creating something entirely distinctive for a property is also fuelling retail, as the shift up in quality means guests are increasingly tempted to purchase their robe as a memento.”

Chateau Denmark, an exclusive new London property inspired by Denmark Street’s ‘rare hustle’, has opted for the Bespoke Hamptons robe in purple with an intricate motif that encompasses more than 50,000 stitches on the back of every robe.

While Mayfair Townhouse, part of the Iconic Luxury hotel collection has selected both BC SoftWear’s Sumptuous robes and towels, Haycock Manor and Gleneagles Townhouse in Edinburgh will open with Elegance robes. BC SoftWear has created a bespoke forest green colour and neck label for the Gleneagles Townhouse.

The Fairmont Windsor Park has opted for the Bespoke Hampton robe in beige, all bespoke towels in the bedrooms from the new Opulence range, and coir-soled biodegradable slippers in the spa. The Retreat at Elcot Park has selected BC SoftWear’s towels and robes for both the hotel and spa, using an unusual slate grey robe in the bedrooms.

Barbara continues: “We’re delighted to be working with the very best in the business to provide hotel guests with the luxury experience they deserve at each of these new facilities. We’re committed to playing our part in making sure every customers’ experience is the very best it can be.”

BC SoftWear is already the towelling company of choice for many of the UK’s most prestigious hotels including Chewton Glen, Pennyhill Park, Champneys, Cliveden Hotel and Spa, and Fairmont St. Andrews Hotel & Spa.

Leading spa textiles supplier, BC SoftWear, has expanded its portfolio with six new partnerships, all in brand new UK spa developments.

The Bokeh Spa at the recently-opened Montcalm East in Shoreditch, London – an Autograph Collection hotel – will use BC SoftWear’s fast-drying SupremeSoft range for the high energy savings it can offer. Spa Manager at Bokeh Eleanor Jeffrey selected BC SoftWear having experienced stand-out service while working with them in four previous spas over the last 10 years. Having opted for extra-large Gharieni treatment beds in the spa, Bokeh needed specially fitting and extra-large linen, which BC SoftWear is able to provide.

Meanwhile, The Spa at Breedon Priory in Derbyshire, an exciting new project designed by Claire Caddick of Spaticulate, has chosen BC SoftWear’s SmartKnit knitted towels and SupremeSoft spa linen due to their inherent sustainable features, faster drying times and snag-free nature.

In addition, the newly opened Wellness at the Randolph in Oxford has selected BC SoftWear’s logoed waffle robes and Serenity waffle spa linen, while The Treatment Rooms at the University Arms Hotel in Cambridge has selected SupremeSoft spa linen, Pure Linen duvets, pillows and pillow cases.

Heavenly Spa by Westin, at the Marriott’s Westin London City Hotel and Spa, has also selected BC SoftWear as its spa linen partner of choice, opting for logoed deluxe Elegance robes as well as the Sumptuous Deluxe towels for spa beds. Finally Spa by Wildes at Van Dyk Wildes, a luxury 4-star hotel situated in Derbyshire, will be showcasing Comfy slate grey robes with matching slate grey towels.

Barbara Cooke, founder and managing director at BC SoftWear, says: “I’m thrilled to announce a string of new spa partnerships for BC SoftWear as we begin the year. We’re delighted to be working with the very best in the business to provide spa guests with the luxury experience they deserve at each of these new facilities.

“Often the towels, robes or linen are a guest’s first touch point when they enter a spa – particularly since the pandemic began. With handshakes a thing of the past, that initial touch is ever more important and we’re committed to making sure customers’ first physical encounter is the very best it can be.”
