The Spa at Slieve Donard nestles safely between the restless sea, brooding mountains and soft rolling Irish countryside. ESPA worked closely with Robinson Pattinson, drawing on the local surroundings for design inspiration. The spa materials reflect the surrounding natural environment with the use of stone, granite, sea washed pebbles and natural driftwood combined with etched glass, Irish Linen and clean lines resulting in a simple, Zen-like feel.

Every element of the spa supports a genuinely holistic and restorative experience for each guest. A feeling of sheer escapism pervades on a journey, which begins as the clients’ step through the door and glides through Heat Experiences, stimulating Vitality Pools, sauna and steam rooms to the tranquil relaxation and into the treatment suite.

The Spa features:

• 12 luxurious treatment rooms
• Separate sex relaxation rooms
• 20 metre Swimming Pool
• Vitality Pools, with views overlooking the sea view
• Amethyst Steam Rooms,
• Rock Saunas with glass windows overlooking the sea view
• Drench showers
