Spa-cious

Spa facilities that raise the bar are the perfect way to cap off any meeting or conference.

Durham’s five-star Seaham Hall and The Serenity Spa is a multi-award-winning hotel, famed for fine dining with three rosettes from the AA and a Remy award as one of the top 20 restaurants outside London. It boasts four conference spaces, the largest of which can hold up to 120 delegates theatre style. It’s an intimate and relaxed setting, but can cater for larger groups with the biggest exhibition area measuring a spacious 110 square metres.

North East England boasts one of the UK’s largest spas in the country at five-star Rockliffe Hall and sublimely stylish spa and leisure centres in hotels across the region including Matfen Hall, Barceló Redworth Hall Hotel and De Vere Slaley Hall. Each excels and offers business guests the opportunity to kick back and unwind in the most sophisticated surroundings.
