Center Parcs Longleat Forest to invest £4.7m in Aqua Sana Spa redesign
POSTED 05 Feb 2019 . BY Lauren Heath-Jones
The Aqua Sana Spa at Center Parcs Longleat Forest in Wiltshire is set to undergo a significant refurbishment that will see its World of Spa replaced with a new forest spa concept.

The project, which is worth a reported £4.7m, will consist of five phases, taking place over the course of 14 months, with normal operations remaining throughout. Works will include an extension of the current spa building as well as a complete overhaul of the existing treatment areas.

Once complete the new spa will boast 25 new experiences – some exclusive to Longleat – inspired by the seasons. They will incorporate ice, frost, rainforest showers and hot springs to stimulate the senses and make guests feel closer to nature.

Kay Pennington, Aqua Sana Group spa manager, said: "The forest environment has inspired us to change the experiences we offer to make the most of nature. The reaction we have had from guests at Sherwood Forest, when we altered the spa there last year to Forest Spa was incredible and we want to bring this great concept to Longleat Forest this year.

"Aqua Sana Longleat Forest will have 25 spa experiences even before you reach the extensive treatment menu. The beauty of an Aqua Sana spa day is that it should feel like yours with the ability to design your own spa journey. This really appeals to spa aficionados and first timers alike."
