Center Parcs has unveiled plans for its new 22 treatment room spa at Woburn Forest, opening in Q2 of 2014.

The full facility is actually made up of six smaller spas all inspired by nature and combining different approaches from many of Europe’s leading establishments. The six spas are themed around; Fire and Ice, Mineral and Gemstone, Blossom, Herbal, Sensory and Salt.

Each spa holds a variety of multi-sensory experience rooms and there will also be an outdoor infinity pool looking out across Woburn forest.

The Aqua Sana concept was designed and developed by Schletterer Wellness & Spa Design and Sparc Studio.

“We have also worked with the best designers and suppliers in the spa industry who were carefully selected to bring this new concept to life,” says Don Camilleri, Woburn Construction director. “This is going to be the biggest, most innovative spa we have ever created, a concept that has evolved from the success of our existing Aqua Sanas.”

As well as 25 experience rooms there are also 22 treatment rooms across the six different areas with products from Elemis, Decléor and Bliss as well as Serail Suite for couples’ mud treatments.

Facilities in the six sections includes three saunas, a snow and ice room, six multi-sensory shower rooms, five relaxation lounges, two steamrooms, a heat room, a herbal inhalation bath, two steam cabins, a meditation room, salt inhalation room, a zen garden and a mineral room.

Also included is a boutique, gym and Vitalé Café Bar serving Mediterranean refreshments and light cuisine.

Heading up the new Aqua Sana team at Woburn Forest is Donna McKee, who has more than nine years of experience within the industry. She says: “The chance to create a brand new spa and a new team to bring it to life is an exhilarating prospect. I am already busy building the team of 80 people it will take to manage and run the spa including more than 50 therapists. We look forward to welcoming our first visitors soon.”
