This Spring, Mallory Court Hotel in Warwickshire opened a brand new Elan Spa – the first new spa to open in the county for over a decade.

Part of The Eden Hotel Collection, Mallory Court is a quintessential English country house situated just outside historic Leamington Spa. Its tranquil 10-acre grounds, sheltered by surrounding woodland, provided the perfect canvas for the new £7m spa, which has been 12 years in the planning.

With over 20 years of experience in spa design, Spa Creators was the perfect fit for the project. Headed up by Alistair Johnson, the firm’s six-strong team has created an inviting, peaceful retreat – state of the art in its facilities, while fitting in well with the architectural

aesthetic of this striking Listed hotel. “We specialise in a very hands-on build

process and work closely with the owner/operator throughout the project and afterwards,” explains Alistair of Spa Creators’ approach. “Luxury boutique hotels are our speciality.”

The spa’s impressive facilities include an outdoor vitality pool with countryside views, glazed outdoor sauna, Rhassoul mud room, seven treatment rooms, 10m indoor Hydro pool, salt sauna and gym as well as a boutique, manicure/pedicure bar and juice bar.

In addition, 12 luxurious new spa bedrooms have been created, supplementing the existing 31 bedrooms in the main hotel.

The spa’s interior features a palette of soothing, neutral tones alongside striking

design details. Iridescent black tiles, tinged with silver, line the wallow pool, while Osborne & Little wallpapers grace the walls.

Spa Creators has paid close attention to the functionality of the space. For example, the manicure area features plentiful storage without appearing cluttered. A manicure bar and display units – created by UK manufacturer of wooden lockers and changing room furniture, Crown Lockers – was fabricated on-site with a Corian top.

Crown Lockers also applied its expertise to the seven top floor treatment rooms – all of which incorporate driftwood laminate, Corian worktops, product storage and concealed towel heaters – as well as the male and female changing rooms, which feature two-tier clothes lockers with upholstered integrated seating and shoe storage.

Equal attention to detail has been paid to the spa’s outdoor facilities. As well as an outdoor vitality pool, Spa Creators has installed its innovative SAUNAshell outdoor sauna experience. Part of the firm’s widers SPAshell collection, SAUNAshell is created off-site using the latest eco modular technology, before being simply and quickly installed.spacreators.co.ukmallory.co.uk/spa/
