Facilities at THE NICI Spa New Forest

Think of THE NICI Spa as your own space to switch things up. Start with an energising swim, get your heart rate up in the gym, turn up the heat in the sauna or steam room, then slow things right back down with a treatment or time in the Relaxation Room. With indoor and outdoor pools, fitness, food, treatments and plenty of places to kick back, there’s more than one way to do spa.

INDOOR POOL

Make a Splash

The indoor pool is made for however you want to spend your time in the water. Swim a few lengths, take it easy or simply enjoy the heated water before heading into the rest of the spa. With poolside loungers nearby and plenty of space to switch between movement and downtime, it’s a go-to whatever your mood.

OUTDOOR POOL

Poolside, All Year Round

Take your swim outside. The outdoor pool brings a little more energy to your spa day, with open skies, fresh air and the New Forest setting all around you. Take a morning dip, cool off between treatments or settle poolside with a drink and make an afternoon of it.

Steam, Sauna & Cold Room

Turn Up the Heat

Go from hot to cold and back again. The steam room and aromatherapy sauna are made for warming up, switching off and letting the day disappear, while the cold room brings a fresh, invigorating contrast. Move between heat and cool at your own pace for a spa experience that leaves you feeling refreshed and recharged.

Hydrotherapy Pool

Feel The Flow

Let the water do the work. Our hydrotherapy pool is designed for those moments when you want to slow down, loosen up and let the day melt away. Move between soothing jets, warm water and gentle bubbles before heading back to the indoor pool or finding your spot in the relaxation room.

Gym & Fitness Studios

Get Moving

Wellbeing doesn’t always mean sitting still. Our fully equipped gym and fitness studios are designed for everything from a proper workout to a quick burst of movement, with classes and training options to keep things interesting. Start with a session, finish with a swim and make the most of your time at THE NICI.

Relaxation Room

Find Your Off Switch

After all that movement, it’s time to slow things down. Sink into the crystal energy loungers, grab a refreshing drink and settle in with a book or magazine. The Relaxation Room is your space to properly switch off, whether you’re here for total tranquillity or simply a few quiet minutes between experiences.

Experience Showers

Ultimate Refresh

More than just a rinse. Our experience showers bring temperature, pressure and sensory elements together for an invigorating moment between spa experiences. Perfect after the heat of the sauna or steam room – or whenever you fancy a quick reset.

Treatment Rooms

Time For A Little You

Ten treatment rooms, including a dedicated double room for two. Our treatments are delivered in partnership with EVOLVE Organic Beauty, using thoughtful, natural formulations and considered rituals designed to leave you feeling refreshed, restored and ready for whatever comes next.

Elms Café & Juice Bar

Refuel, Your Way

A spa day needs good food. Head to Elms Café & Juice Bar for fresh juices, shakes, salads, satisfying plates and plenty of favourites when you’ve worked up an appetite. Whether you’re grabbing something between treatments or settling in for a longer lunch, this is your chance to refuel without leaving the action.

Private Cinema

Spa Day, Then Movie Night

Because sometimes the best way to switch off is to press play. Our Private Cinema gives spa guests another way to take time out, with a chance to kick back and enjoy a film in your own space. Perfect for a post-treatment movie, a family afternoon or simply changing the pace.

LITTLE LOBSTERS KIDS CLUB

Fun For Little Guests

Bringing the kids along? For our in-house guests, Little Lobsters Kids Club offers a programme of activities, games, crafts, sensory play and seasonal adventures for younger guests. Please note that children under the age of 4 must be supervised by a parent or guardian.

The 13 best spas in the South of England for ultimate rest and relaxation – 2025

“This is a destination for those who like to spa with a side of decadence and hedonism … While the spa itself is a hidden-away sanctuary of tranquility, it feels perfectly right to head to a sun lounger and order a cosmo from the poolside bar post-massage…”

speech mark
Winner of Best Interiors at Prima Magazine’s UK Spa Awards 2025

“The spa is where the decor shifts to neutral and low lighting creates a cocoon like effect. The indoor pool is big enough to get in some lengths, while a well-equipped gym includes a space to strike a few yoga poses, if the mood takes you – or just relax in the Jacuzzi, steam rooms or sauna.”

JJ has the right idea. The transition into Autumn looks pretty good from here. 🌿

Poolside afternoons, slow mornings, spa days, and just enough Hamptons energy to keep us pretending summer isn’t over.

And when autumn does eventually arrive? Fall for THE NICI with up to 30% off your stay, plus 30% off spa treatments and plenty of reasons to stay a little longer.

New Forest, we’ll see you by the pool. ✨
