A government grant for rural development has partially funded the conversion of a former Durham garage into a quintessentially English spa.
The Garage, at Greta Bridge in rural Teesdale, draws on its heritage as a refuelling and repairing point for some of the country’s first motorcars with guests offered “Tune Up Treatments” at the Body Shop and manicure or pedicure treatments at the Paint Shop.
An exclusive product line made with honey collected by local beekeepers can be purchased at The Garage’s forecourt.
The new spa, which is connected to the neighbouring Morritt hotel, is part funded through the Rural Development Programme for England, which is funded by Defra and the European Union.
Improving local skills, tourism and economies are some of the priorities of the fund for its seven-year programme (2007-2013).
