The wraps are coming off the new £2 million state-of-the-art leisure complex at the prestigious Lamphey Court Hotel & Spa in Pembrokeshire.
There has been a remarkable transformation at the hotel and spa centre over the last year.
It was back in April, 2010, when the old spa at the hotel saw one of the most dramatic fires seen in Pembrokeshire for many years.
Six fire engines and 45 firefighters from all over the county were called to tackle 15-metre-high flames bursting through the roof of the leisure facility.
The new spa and leisure complex has literally risen like the phoenix from the ashes.
“It’s been a dramatic turn-around for the hotel and spa complex and we have managed to achieve it in a relatively short period of time,” said Phil Thomas, general manager at the Lamphey Court Hotel & Spa near Pembroke.
“The architects and the builders have worked very hard to create something very special here and we are sure the centre will be a major asset for the tourism industry in Pembrokeshire.
“It will work particularly well in attracting people down the M4 corridor and that is a win-win situation for the tourism industry which is so important to Pembrokeshire.
“All the staff here at the hotel and spa are hugely excited about the launch of our brand new facility.
“Costing up to £2 million and using exclusive products such as Cinq Mondes and Aromatherapy Associates, Lamphey Court will put Pembrokeshire on the map when it comes to luxury and relaxation.”
The facilities at the new spa will include – 14-metre Swimming Pool, Fitness Suite, Resistance Gym, Stretch Area, Treatment Rooms, Sauna, Steam Room, Jacuzzi and a Hair Dressing Salon.
The new spa centre will be managed by Kristal Wright, 26, who arrives with an extensive CV which includes working at The Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire, a Five Star Luxury hotel retreat based in Dogmersfield, Hampshire.
Mr Thomas added: “Kristal is qualified in a wide variety of spa and beauty treatments and therapies. She is highly-motivated and a good communicator and I’m sure she will prove to be an asset to the team here at the Lamphey Court Hotel and Spa.”
Kristal said: “My ambition is to offer exquisite treatments and facilities in a friendly, tranquil environment.
“The Lamphey Court Hotel & Spa offers a selection of calming and energising experiences. It will be a welcoming oasis of relaxation and an ideal picturesque setting in which to revive, renew and revitalise.”
She added: “I hope to bring plenty of experience to my work at the spa. Working at the Four Seasons, I made sure that treatments were carried out to the highest standard for spa members, hotel guests and world-renowned celebrities and VIPs.”
