Expert Guidance
Common questions about navigating the Lake District's premier wellness retreats.
Can I visit Brimstone Spa for the day without staying at the hotel?
No, Brimstone Spa is exclusively available to hotel guests. Unlike many Lake District spas, Brimstone does not offer day passes or spa day packages. The spa facilities are reserved solely for guests staying at the hotel, creating an intimate and tranquil environment throughout your visit.
This exclusive approach means the spa never feels overcrowded, and hotel guests can enjoy unlimited access to all facilities throughout their stay. From the moment you arrive until check out, you can use the 9 metre swim through pool, 5 thermal experiences, and relaxation areas as often as you wish without booking time slots or worrying about capacity limits.
If you're looking to experience Brimstone Spa, the only option is to book a stay at the hotel. Spa access is complimentary for all hotel guests regardless of room type. To book your stay, visit the booking section. For spas that do offer day passes in the Lake District, see our Spas page.

Is spa access included with my room at Brimstone Spa?
Yes, spa access is complimentary for all hotel guests at Brimstone Spa regardless of which room type you book. From your arrival until check out, you have unlimited access to all spa facilities including the unique 9 metre swim through indoor and outdoor pool, 5 thermal experiences, relaxation areas, and the outdoor terrace with views over the Langdale Pikes.
Unlike some Lake District spas that operate on timed booking slots, Brimstone Spa allows guests to come and go as they please throughout their stay. You can use the spa facilities first thing in the morning, between activities, or for a relaxing evening session. The spa is even available while you wait for your room to be ready on arrival, so you can start unwinding from the moment you arrive.
The thermal facilities include a Finnish sauna, laconium for gentle heat therapy, aromatic steam room, ice room for contrast therapy, and multi sensory experience showers. Towels and robes are provided. For full details on the facilities, see the thermal facilities section.

What makes Brimstone Spa unique in the Lake District?
Brimstone Spa stands out in the Lake District for its distinctive Scandinavian inspired design and several unique features you won't find elsewhere. The centrepiece is the 9 metre swim through pool that connects the indoor spa directly to the outdoor terrace, allowing you to swim between warm waters while taking in views of the surrounding Langdale fells. This is the only swim through pool of its kind in the Lake District.
Beyond the pool, guests enjoy 5 thermal experiences including a traditional Finnish sauna, laconium (gentle dry heat room), aromatic steam room infused with essential oils, an ice room for contrast therapy, and multi sensory experience showers. The spa uses exclusive Pure Alchemy products, a range developed specifically for Brimstone using natural Lake District elements.
The location in the heart of walking country makes Brimstone Spa particularly popular with hikers, and the signature Fellwalker treatment is designed specifically for soothing tired muscles after mountain adventures. For more Lake District spa options, see our Spas page.

What treatments does Brimstone Spa offer?
Brimstone Spa offers 27 spa treatments ranging from express 25 minute therapies to indulgent 100 minute signature rituals.

Treatments are organised into categories including facial treatments (from £65 for an express facial to £250 for the Timeless anti ageing facial), body treatments (£125 to £300 for couples), and massage therapies. The signature Fellwalker treatment (£125 (£245 couples), 50 minutes) is designed specifically for walkers and hikers, focusing on feet, back, and legs to soothe muscles after exploring the fells.

Is Brimstone Spa adults only?
Yes, Brimstone Spa is exclusively for guests aged 18+. The spa facilities including the swim through pool, all thermal experiences, and relaxation areas are restricted to adult guests only. This policy is in place due to the nature of the thermal heat experiences (saunas, steam rooms, laconium) which are unsuitable for children, and to maintain a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere for all visitors.
While the spa is adults only, families with children are welcome to stay at the wider Langdale Estate, which includes the adjacent Langdale Hotel. However, children cannot access the Brimstone spa facilities under any circumstances. If you're travelling with younger guests, be aware that the spa experience will only be available to adult members of your party.
For families seeking spa experiences where children are welcome, some Lake District spas offer dedicated family swim times or have facilities suitable for younger guests. For alternative options, browse our Lake District spa directory to find spas with different age policies.
