SenSpa at Careys Manor Hotel and Spa

As you make your way through the ancient woodland and heath of the New Forest you know that your time with us will be an unforgettable experience.  As you arrive at the old Manor House, you can just hand over your car keys and know that your car will be carefully valet parked by our Concierge.

When you enter the world of SenSpa, you are beginning a journey of complete relaxation. 

Our mission is to ensure you have a memorable experience filled with pleasure and sensory delight.

Our friendly staff will put even the first time spa goer at ease, as they welcome you with a smile and explain how to make the most of your experience with us.

In your room you will find a gown and slippers, feel free to wear these throughout the day.

Your break will start with a tour of the facilities so you can become familiar with your surroundings. 

During your stay with us you will have time to spend in the hydrotherapy area, here you can enjoy the warm thermal rooms and relax in the hydrotherapy pool  Relaxing in the warm areas sends the blood to the extremities of the body but to balance this effect and to gain the maximum benefit of the spa we recommend you visit the ice room. Placing crushed ice on the body and ice cold water helps to cool the body down quickly sending blood to the vital organs, this stimulates circulation and lymphatic drainage.  Repeat this programme a few times and you will feel refreshed and revitalised.

The relaxation room and quiet room are available for you to unwind, read a book or just fall asleep if you wish. 

Within your programme you may have a mind body class included. A class that is adaptable for all levels which involves relaxation, stretching or movement or a combination of all designed to help you truly unwind.  We provide comfortable Thai pyjamas for you to wear during your class or you can bring your own casual (and comfortable) sports wear if you wish.

Dinner is served in the award winning Manor Restaurant. This fine dining restaurant has received two AA rosettes for culinary excellence and the menu created by our Executive Chef guarantees that you will not be disappointed. 

When it is time to retire to your bedroom, you will be sure of a restful and comfortable night’s sleep.  Why not upgrade from a Knightwood room to one of our sumptuous new Oakwood rooms?  Refurbished in 2009, these rooms are designed and finished to the highest standard with true luxury and comfort in mind. These rooms offer comfortable seating and living space with Juliette doors overlooking our gardens.

Breakfast is usually served in the tranquil Zen Garden Restaurant where you can choose from a healthy, light breakfast or a more indulgent New Forest breakfast. (please note for some spa breaks breakfast is served in the Manor Restaurant).

Lunch is served in the Zen Garden Restaurant and you have a two course menu included within your package.  We offer a selection of dishes, many of which are traditional Thai dishes, although we do have Western dishes on the menu too.  If you are coming for a detox, then there is a good choice of delicious healthy meals however if you are coming for indulgence there is much to choose from.   So whether you want a fresh fruit smoothie or a glass of wine to accompany your meal, there is no doubt you will enjoy it! And there is no need to worry about getting dressed up for lunch, you can just sit back and relax in your gown.

During your stay you will have time to enjoy treatments.  The treatments included depend on the package booked, we recommend that any additional treatments be booked in advance as we cannot guarantee availability on the day. 

When it is time for your treatment you will be met by your therapist who will take you to your treatment room, many people who haven’t had a treatment before are worried about what they should or shouldn’t do here – but don’t worry, everything will be explained to you, if you do have a particular question in mind click here for a list of our frequently asked questions or simply ask us and we will be happy to put your mind at rest.
