A quiet townhouse built for slowing down.
Birchwood opened in 2013 in a converted Georgian townhouse near the Royal Botanic Garden. We kept the high ceilings and cornicing, and added a thermal suite in what used to be the cellar.

Is the thermal suite always available?
Yes, with any spa day or treatment, and we cap numbers so it never feels busy.
Can I book just a massage, without the spa day?
Yes, any treatment can be booked on its own, though the thermal suite is only included with a spa day.
Is it really adults only?
Yes, we welcome guests 16 and over so the thermal suite stays calm for everyone.
