Cotswold’ Dormy House set to open £5m spa

Cotswolds’ Dormy House Hotel is to launch a luxury spa in 2014 as part of a £10m planned revamp.

Located near Broadway village, the spa is being developed by UK-based interior designers Sparcstudio.

The spa will include an infinity pool, treatment rooms, fitness gym, dining area and terrace garden.

It will be available both to hotel guests and as a day spa and health club for local residents.

Spa consultant Neil Howard has also been appointed to deliver the project. Neil’s previous work has included the spa at The Dorchester and The Lanesborough in London, as well as all three Armani Spas in Tokyo, Milan and Dubai.

More than £5m will be spent on the design and creation of the House Spa, while £5m will also be spent on refurbishing and upgrading the hotel’s public areas and its 40 bedrooms.

The Dormy is due to close in mid-March for the work to begin, reopening after the first phase of bedroom redevelopment this summer.

It will remain open while work continues on House Spa, which is due to open in early 2014.

Howard said: “I’m very well aware The Dormy House is a much-loved Cotswold hotel and it’s always a privilege to work with such a brand.

“We’ve been delivering spas around the world for 18 years and I am looking forward to building on the traditional at The Dormy and creating a very special spa experience.”

Dormy House Hotel has been owned by the Philip-Sørensen family since 1977.
