HOMEFIELD GRANGE WELLNESS SPA

Restoring a farm’s spirit into a holistic wellness retreat for mind, body, and soul

Project Overview
Set in the peaceful Northamptonshire countryside, Homefield Grange is one of the UK’s leading weight loss, detox, and wellness retreats. Our vision was to create a spa experience that honoured the site’s rustic heritage as a former dairy farm, while offering guests a natural, restorative sanctuary to support their personal wellbeing journey. The result is a boutique wellness retreat where traditional craftsmanship, natural materials, and thoughtful design work in harmony to inspire positive life change.

The Challenge
Homefield Grange has always been a place where people come to reset and reconnect with their best selves. Our challenge was to create a luxury wellness retreat design that stayed true to the authentic roots of the property, while delivering the calming, contemporary facilities today’s discerning wellness guests expect. Every detail had to reflect the natural beauty and honesty of the original dairy farm, yet also offer a deeply luxurious, nurturing experience – encouraging reflection, relaxation, and inner transformation.

The original brief focused on improving guest flow, updating interiors, and enhancing the thermal experiences. Our creative concept took this further – proposing a design narrative that placed nature at the centre of the experience. The challenge became one of restraint and sensitivity: to design a spa that felt like it belonged to the forest, not simply beside it.

Our Approach
We grounded our design philosophy in the restoration of the farm’s original spirit – embracing rustic materials, traditional building methods, and a seamless connection to nature.

Spa Interior Design

Restoring the concept of the original dairy farm, we used reclaimed rustic barn cladding, real dry stone walls, and solid slate worktops to create a warm and honest material palette.
Natural light floods the spaces, bouncing off textured stone and aged timbers to create a constantly shifting, softly lit environment that feels both grounding and uplifting. Farm-style features, handcrafted joinery, and artisanal furnishings ensure a sense of authenticity at every turn. The overall feel is one of natural luxury – a rustic spa interior that soothes the senses and welcomes guests into a space of true restoration.

Space Planning

The layout was carefully curated to guide guests on a gentle wellness journey. The spa facilities include a bespoke infinity edge hydrotherapy pool, herbal sauna, infrared therapy space, ice shoot, and a Himalayan salt steam room — all thoughtfully integrated to support detoxification, relaxation, and physical renewal. Spaces flow intuitively, offering moments of solitude, therapy, and social connection in equal measure, while preserving the boutique, personal feel that defines the Homefield Grange experience.

Connecting with Nature

A key element of the design was to maintain an intimate relationship with the natural landscape surrounding the retreat. The spa garden invites guests to extend their wellness experience outdoors, embracing the healing power of fresh air, greenery, and stillness. Every material, texture, and viewline was selected to dissolve the boundaries between indoors and outdoors, creating a holistic wellness retreat that feels deeply connected to the earth.

The Solution
The completed Homefield Grange Wellness Spa is a serene, authentic space where rustic tradition meets modern wellness. Through a sensitive combination of natural spa design, traditional craftsmanship, and restorative space planning, we have created a boutique spa retreat that reflects Homefield’s soul – a place where positive change begins through deep rest, reconnection, and respect for nature.
