Bedford Lodge Hotel
Bedford Lodge hotel in Newmarket is set to open a new spa in a neighbouring property, in addition to a £1.5m development program of the hotel.
The Spa at Bedford Lodge hotel is scheduled to open next Summer in the next-door Rockfield House, which was purchased by Bedford Lodge’s owners Review Hotels last year.
“Rockfield House is a truly beautiful building which has retained many of its original features such as its high ceilings and grand staircase,” said Bedford Lodge chief executive Noel Byrne. “These will all be restored to their former glory as the spa is created.
“The Spa at Bedford Lodge hotel will be open to the public by appointment for a range of treatments including manicures, pedicures, full body massages, facials and many more, as well as day spa and residential spa breaks.
While £500,000 has already been spent on the development of the spa, the four-star Bedford Lodge hotel in Bury Road is already undergoing the separate expansion, which will include the creation of 21 new bedrooms.
