The gym has been fitted out with 'Air Machine' resistance equipment, three new treatment rooms and a relaxation room have been added and a separate sauna and steam room installed in each of the creatively styled ladies and gentlemens changing rooms. The Pool Bar lounge has been considerably extended as a focal point for the club and provides a wide range of light meals and snacks. The hydrotherapy pool is the crowning glory of the new spa.

Ed's Comment:
What does a venue like Chewton Glen mean to Lymington? Well just think of all those large corporates choosing conferences and associated entertainment in the area, wedding parties staying in our local Hotels and B&B's and people from all over the world coming here to check out the area and spend their cash. Need I say more? So at least from the Team here we say 'yes Chewton Glen you are the bees knees and long may you reign!'
