Help us help you get the best from your spa experience
Arrival Times:
We would advise that you arrive 30 mins prior to your first Spa Treatment to allow sufficient time to check-in, change into your robe, complete our therapist consultation and allow our Spa Host to familiarise you with The Spa. As a courtesy to all our guests we do operate a prompt appointment schedule. A late arrival may mean that your treatment time is reduced or that we are unable to honour your booking. Please note that in such cases, no refunds will be made.
What to Bring and Wear:
For your comfort, towels and robes are provided for use during your day. Please note, to reduce waste we do not provide complimentary flip flops or single use / disposable slippers. To support the sustainability of our Spa, we ask all our guests to bring their own flip flops, alternatively you may purchase a pair in the Spa to take away with you. Hotel guests are welcome to arrive in their bedroom robe but due to the inherent wet nature of the Spa, we do not recommend the use of hotel slippers in any of the Thermal areas.
Robes and towels remain the property of The Spa and are fitted with discreet security tags. Robes can be purchased at the end of your visit if you wish if you wish to take these home. Please bring appropriate swimwear if you intend using the indoor or outdoor thermal experiences and swimming pools. Please note it is not unusual for swim wear to fade or jewellery to tarnish due to the required levels of chlorination to keep the water safe. The Spa will not accept any responsibility for the deterioration of clothing or jewellery as result. Please do check your swimsuit care instructions and remove all jewellery before using the facilities.
Electronic Devices:
We want you and fellow guests to embrace your surroundings, relax and enjoy some down-time. For your convenience Wi Fi and charging points are available in the Spa, but we ask that you mute your electronic devices and refrain from taking calls. Filming and photography is not permitted in and around the swimming pools or changing areas. The use of electronic smoking devices is not permitted within any of the inside or outside spa areas.
Valuables/Lockers:
Lockers are available for your personal use during your visit. No responsibility can be accepted by the Company for the safety of money, valuables or personal belongings brought to the Spa, whether placed in a locker or not. If you do bring valuable items, it is essential that they are covered by your own insurance. The Company will not be liable, under any circumstances whatsoever, for damage, injury or consequential loss, however caused, to our guests, their property and belongings, unless it is solely due to negligence of the Company or its employees.
Spa Day Timings
Please note, the time you have selected is just a guide to which thermal session you would prefer to be on. To ensure that all our guests have the best possible experience we carefully schedule arrival times for each session. You will be notified of your final arrival time within 24hours of making your booking.
If you would like to discuss particular times, please do call the spa team direct on 0333 2203 106 and we will be happy to help.

Drinks Advice:
Hot and cold beverages including alcohol may be purchased and consumed in and around the Spa. We request that you show full consideration towards the associated health and safety risks, as well as your fellow guests and our staff at all times, and refrain from excessive, noisy or disruptive behaviour.
Dietary Requirements:
We are more than happy to plan and cater for dietary requirements as long as you take time to notify us at the time of booking.
Hotel Guests:
Guests of the hotel get complimentary access to the indoor Health Club at Low Wood Bay. However, our indoor and outdoor spa facilities as well as treatments are additional extras for all guests (unless booked on one of our spa break packages) and should be booked separately before arrival.
