Aromatherapy Associates for Whitby hotel spa

Aromatherapy Associates has been appointed to supply the spa at Raithwaite Hall Country Retreat near Whitby, North Yorkshire, UK which is scheduled to open in October.

The international health and beauty group has been chosen as the property's spa partner in advance of its grand opening, with day spa and overnight spa break services to be offered.

Facilities at the Raithwaite Spa will include four treatment rooms; a relaxation lounge; and a steamroom, sauna and whirlpool, along with a heated swimming pool and a gym.

Aromatherapy Associates will offer a full range of treatments as part of the deal, which will include manicures, pedicures, massages and facials, plus hand and feet therapies.

The group has also created bespoke services for the spa, such as the Ocean Breeze, which will involve the use of body brushing and massage, and the Ramblers Retreat.

Raithwaite Hall general manager Richard Mansell said: "The Spa at Raithwaite is a true place of refuge, where guest's can relax and leave the stresses and worries of modern life behind."

The £30m, 45-bedroom development will be a sister site to the Skelwith Group's £100m Flaxby Country Club between York and Harrogate.
