A NEW health and beauty venue has opened in Evesham.

The Mulberry Spa in the town's Evesham Hotel offers a wide range of spa and beauty treatments using products from leading skincare brand Elemis.

Head spa therapist Gemma Marskell-Stewart said: “It took about a month to transform the treatment room into its finished state and we are simply delighted with the result. It has a calming atmosphere, the perfect place to relax while enjoying any of our luxurious treatments. The spa is set away from the busier areas of the hotel, ensuring peace and tranquillity for patrons, whichever treatment they choose. Close to the hotel’s secluded heated swimming pool, the whole environment is geared towards relaxation and mindfulness."

The recently celebrated it 40th birthday under its current owners and the spa, which is open to residents and non-residents, has been introduced as a way of pushing the business forward and meeting the ever changing and varying needs of guests.

General manager David Field added: “We are so thrilled with the results of the hard work of our team to get the Mulberry Spa ready for business. In Gemma, we have a first-rate therapist who we have no doubt will make the treatment room a thriving success. We couldn’t be happier with the overall ambience and the reception the spa received at its opening.”

Treatments can be booked through the hotel reception and special offer membership deals are available.
