Fletcher's Cottage spa opens at Archerfield golf club
POSTED 28 Mar 2012 . BY Tom Walker
A new 750sq m (8,000sq ft) luxury day spa has opened at the Archerfield Links championship golf course near Edinburgh, UK.

The spa has seven treatment rooms - including a double treatment room and a salt brick inhalation room - as well as a large relaxation lounge with a wood burning oven and a secret walled garden.

Within the garden, there are two seaweed bathing houses, which act as additional treatment areas.

Other facilities at the spa, which were designed and supplied by Nola 7, include a marine salt steam room, herbal aroma sauna, a mud cure room, an ice fountain, and contrast adventure showers.

Consultant Sian Parry Jones created the concept for the spa, which focuses on an ethical approach to health and well-being that is "in harmony with nature".

Treatments have been supplied by Voya, Aromatherapy Associates, Spiezia, and Margaret Dabbs and include facials, body wraps and therapeutic massages.

According to Kirsty Brown, marketing manager at Archerfield, the spa will be marketed for both members of the golf club as well as guests staying in the accommodation.

She said: "The opening of the spa enhances Archerfield as a destination. We already offer two great golf courses with accommodation and now we have something more for people who don't golf but their partners do."
