Treetop Spa
Perched above Crawfordsburn Country Park, the Treetop Spa offers sweeping forest views for a serene rural getaway. Begin your journey with outdoor hot bathing in the pool and hot tub, then detox in the sauna and steam room. Relax on heated marble loungers or a cosy waterbed in the covered cabana, warmed by the woodfire stove as classical music plays softly. For the ultimate indulgence, choose from bespoke ELEMIS treatments, from 60 to 120 minutes, designed to leave you refreshed and rejuvenated.
