Seaham Hall's new Zen Garden to provide guests with "meditative space"
POSTED 02 Aug 2018 . BY Tom Walker
The Zen Garden is part of a £3m refurbishment programme undertaken since 2012
Seaham Hall spa hotel in Durham has opened its new Zen Garden outdoor space, tapping into the increased consumer interest in wellbeing and the peace of Feng Shui.

Set in green gardens and surrounded by bespoke relaxation beds, the meditative space encourages guests to "escape the madness of the modern world" and features an infinity hydrotherapy pool with jets.

The Zen Garden will add to the services available at the 44,000sq ft Seaham Hall Spa, which already features a number of treatment rooms, an indoor pool, outdoor hot tubs, three thermal rooms and a Pan-Asian restaurant, The Ozone.

The 21-bedroom Seaham Hall has undergone a £3m refurbishment programme since it was acquired by Bristol-based Seasons Holidays when previous owner Von Essen went into administration in 2012.

Seasons Holidays then set up Seaham Hall Management Company, which is headed up by managing director Ross Grieve.
