Luxury five star inn the Cary Arms, on Devon’s Babbacombe Bay, will open a glass-fronted spa this August. The new spa is part of its £1.5m (€1.9m, US$2.2m) expansion plans, which include the opening of six Beach Huts and two larger Beach Suites.

The new Cary Spa will feature a glass-fronted pool and sunbathing deck, offering panoramic vistas along the unspoilt Jurassic coastline.

Inside the spa, there will be a series of treatment rooms using Parisian spa and skincare brand Yon-Ka, with treatments ranging from ‘vital defence’ facials to full-body Swedish massages, and even a special men’s facial.

The spa will also include an experience shower, aromatherapy jets, a sauna and steam room and a mini gym. Guests at the inn will have full complimentary access to the spa.

The spa opening will coincide with the unveiling of the new Beach Huts and Beach Suites. Sitting on the water’s edge and comprising a terrace, sitting room, wet bar, log-burning stove, bedroom and stylish bathroom, the Beach Huts and Beach Suites will each sleep two. Large windows will allow for views across Lyme Bay to Portland Bill.
