A stay at the newly-opened The Swan doesn’t just mean a superb location and gorgeous property, but also a retreat replete with holistic wellbeing for you and your partner. Based in the picturesque Newby Bridge, the hotel is a Lakeland gem. After a lavish renovation in 2015, The Swan opened with a sparkling new Holte Spa and stylish bedrooms fitted with all the mod cons and contemporary furnishings, while retaining its 17th-century appeal. Holte, a new and exciting concept aiming to enhance the traditional expectations of spa, is a nod to the ancestral name of the property’s owner James. The staff are eager to make guests feel at home, while the service is respectful without being staid. The mini resort is also perfect for a post wedding getaway.
The Rooms
The charming rooms and suites at The Swan Hotel exude a modern, country-fresh feel, and boast exuberant wallpaper and Provençal-style furniture. New for 2022, the hotel’s Splendid spa rooms include two hours of Holte spa access and are perfect for honeymooners. Each suite enjoys gorgeous hillside views, local amenities, super king size beds made in Cumbria and sustainable luxury bedding.
The Spa
With beautifully designed treatment rooms and thermal circuits, Holte Spa is a space of solitude and connectivity. It comes to life through sensorial experiences to achieve harmony, health and happiness. Bespoke treatments include a good mix of restorative rituals, CBD massages and even sleep-inducing options. You can potter around all day at their pool or spa garden, before ending with a lunch at Soul spa cafe.
The Dining
The Swan Hotel features exquisite menus for you to relish. The Swan Inn offers a homely setting to enjoy lunch, afternoon tea or dinner. Head to Brasserie for a 3-course meal, along with cocktails.
