Dormy House in the Cotswolds, UK is to see the opening of a new House Spa this week as the final part of the boutique hotel’s £10m (US$16.3m, €12m) refurbishment.

The hotel and spa are part of Farncombe hospitality – a group of companies originally owned by Jorgen Philip-Sorensen, the entrepreneur behind the green cleaning product brand Ecover.

The spa refurbishment is the product of a collaboration between Sparcstudio, Howard Spa Consulting and Temple Spa.

Sparcstudio is behind the spa's design and interiors, with the spa being developed in consultation with Howard Spa Consulting.

English brand Temple Spa has contributed to the facility with a range of treatments being offered to guests, while all therapists at the site have been trained by Beata Alexandrovicz of London’s Pure Massage.

The facility features six treatment rooms, as well as a 16m infinity pool, hydro pool and a personal training studio, which will be available to guests, day spa visitors and a limited 200 members.

For those looking for thermal experiences, an extensive suite houses a salt infusion steam room, Finnish sauna, drench showers, an ice chute and a lavender sauna.

Other highlights of the development include a Greenhouse spa lounge, which provides views over the Cotswolds countryside, as well as a champagne nail parlour, following a partnership with nail brand Butter London and Veuve Clicquot champagne.
