£3m Investment Announced For County Antrim Luxury Resort

County Antrim-based premier luxury hotel and spa resort Galgorm has unveiled a major guestroom refurbishment programme and plans for a nature-immersive Forest Spa Garden as key parts of a £3 million investment.

A total of £2 million will be used to renovate Galgorm's six junior suites - which are now complete with private hot tubs on the balconies overlooking the River Maine - and to refurbish 45 superior rooms which are due for completion by July 2025.

Meanwhile, £1 million will be used to create a new Forest Spa Garden, set to open in autumn 2025, located across the River Maine and opposite the existing Thermal Spa Village. It will feature four luxurious relax cabanas, three private hot tubs, a sauna, and serene forest walkways. Additionally, a bespoke bridge will connect the new Forest Spa Garden to the main spa.

Discussing the plans, Colin Johnston, Managing Director, Galgorm Collection, said: "These investments allow us to push boundaries in creating exceptional guest experiences. The junior suites' private balcony hot tubs offer guests a spa retreat within their own room, while the Forest Spa Garden introduces an entirely new way to relax and reconnect with nature. Our guests both from home and overseas can expect even more from Galgorm, and this latest chapter reflects our vision for world-class hospitality here in Northern Ireland."

The new Forest Spa Garden will be open to all overnight and day spa guests, whilst also aimed at specifically providing an accessible wellness experience for guests staying in Galgorm's newly opened Forest Dens, the resort's unique eco-friendly accommodations. This new development ensures that Forest Den guests can enjoy the same high standard of Galgorm's Thermal Spa Village facilities close to their accommodation.

The Forest Dens contain a private garden terrace, outdoor shower, wood-fired bath, and private sauna, nestled under a canopy of trees for the ultimate secluded retreat.
