Whatley Manor Hotel & Spa unveils new Aquarias Spa treatment brochure featuring brand new La Prairie facials and Couples Indulgence Day Spa

Aquarias Spa at Whatley Manor (01666 827 070, www.whatleymanor.com) restores mind and body to a new harmony. Set in the courtyard of the honey-coloured Cotswold manor house hotel, the award-winning spa has released its brand new spa treatment brochure.

Showcasing an updated look and feel to the treatments, the brochure includes two new La Prairie facials and a Couples Indulgence Day Spa in the VIP Suite. In addition there are an extended selection of 60 and 90-minute deluxe La Prairie Facials, providing an even greater choice of spa treatments.

New La Prairie White Caviar Illuminating Facial 60/90 minutes (£110 for 60-minutes or £145 for 90-minutes).

Combining elegance and efficacy, this facial promotes an even skin tone by helping to prevent discolouration and brightening the skin. With the added benefit of Golden Caviar extracts, the skin is firmer and more hydrated, providing a more illuminated, smoother skin that enhances the complexion. The 90-minute treatment includes a massage for the hands and feet for a truly pampering experience.

New La Prairie Cellular Swiss Ice Crystal Facial 60/90 minutes (£110 for 60-minutes or £145 for 90-minutes).

Skin needs moisture, energy and protection. With this in mind, La Prairie has developed this facial to combat the first signs of ageing and to encourage younger-looking skin that is bursting with moisture and vital energy. As its name suggests, the Swiss Ice Crystal facial includes an exquisite eye and face massage using clear and rose quartz crystals; while the 90-minute treatment also incorporates a lomi lomi back massage.

The La Prairie Signature Gentleman’s Facial has been extended to offer both a 60-minute (£90) and a new 90-minute treatment (£125). This cleansing and energising treatment rebalances the skin using La Prairie’s exclusive Cellular Complex and Cellular 3-Minute Peel to reveal younger, fresher-looking skin, with the addition of a scalp, neck, shoulder and back massage for the 90-minute treatment.

For non-residents the new ‘Couples Indulgence Day Spa’ (£265 per person) is an opportunity to enjoy exclusive pampering for two in the VIP Suite (available Monday to Thursday).  Complete with its own hydrobath and unique treatments the VIP Suite offers a highly luxurious experience. Couples can relax together and enjoy the two-and-a-half-hour ‘Aquarias Heaven’ including a full aromatherapy salt and oil polish, aroma flower bath and full body massage using warmed volcanic basalt stones infused with aromatherapy oils, concluding with a soothing fresh camomile tea ritual. A light lunch for two with a glass of champagne is served in the spa lounge.

Additional half-day spa experiences (from £120 per person) and full-day spa experiences (from £150 per person) are available Monday to Thursday, including full use of the spa facilities and a 60 or 90-minute treatment, with a serving of tea and biscuits for a half-day and a light lunch and refreshment in the spa lounge included in the full day spa experience. A supplement of £20 applies when booking a deluxe 60-minute or deluxe 90-minute La Prairie facial.

Whilst mothers-to-be can enjoy a 60-minute ila Pregnancy treatment or a 60-minute La Prairie Hydrating Facial (£107) during a half-day visit with the addition of a Jessica pedicure or a Jessica mini-manicure and mini-pedicure on a full-day visit (£187).

All guests have access to the spa and can take themselves on a journey to relaxation through the European–style facilities which include a magnificent Hydrotherapy Pool that extends outside, a Tepidarium with Heated Stone Recliners, Salt Scrub Showers, a Thermal Suite, Wave Dream Sensory room, gym and studio. They can prepare the skin for treatments by exfoliating the body in the Salt Scrub Showers, then take a dip in the Hydrotherapy Pool with its all-over body massage lounger, cushioned by thousands of soft air bubbles. A swim outside brings guest to an underwater massage bench that gently pummels the backs of the legs and thighs.

The Thermal Suite also features a gently heated Laconium followed by two essence-infused steam cabins and an intensely heated Sauna. Between each of the steam cabins, guests can take an ‘experience shower’; either cooling mint or a tropical rain shower infused with Maracuja. Light refreshments, including delicious juices and smoothies, are served in the stylish spa lounge, overlooking the Hydrotherapy Pool with views to the Spa garden and woodland beyond.

All other 60-minute treatments cost £90, a 75-minute treatment costs £110 and 90-minute spa treatments cost £125. Treatments include a full consultation and aftercare advice. Guests staying at Whatley Manor have complimentary access to Aquarias Spa on the day of arrival and throughout the day following check-out.
