About

The rustic cottage is perfect for a peaceful getaway, complete with a private hot tub which overlooks Crawfordsburn country park.

Perched above Crawfordsburn Country Park, the Treetop Spa offers guests unrivalled forest views for a peaceful rural retreat. Begin your spa journey by enjoying outdoor bathing in the heated pool and hot tub, followed by a unique shower experience to awaken your senses with sounds and aromas transporting you to a tropical rain forest. Detoxify and cleanse the body and mind in our sauna and steam room and unwind in our relaxing cabana. Cosy up in The Conservatory on our heated waterbed and marble loungers whilst enjoying views of the country park. Stay warm by the stove as classical music plays softly.
