A luxurious new spa is opening in the countryside in Cheshire, and it looks absolutely incredible. Champneys, a luxury spa brand, is opening its new venue next month, located at Mottram Hall. It’ll be the company’s first northern venue, with the hotel having undergone a whopping £15million transformation in the process.

And £10million of this was spent on the spa, which comes in at a massive 33,000 sq ft, and boasts facilities such as a 20-metre swimming pool – complete with poolside cabanas – as well as a salt steam room. On top of that, there will be a DaleSauna brechel and organic saunas, monsoon and drench showers, an ice fountain, and a cold room.

If you fancy a workout, there will be a brand new gym fitted with Technogym equipment, alongside a spin studio if you really want to feel the burn. If you’re after something a bit more relaxing, you can always treat yourself to a range of Champneys treatments, as well as some Clarins and Elemis experiences. The spa will feature 15 treatment rooms, as well as a beauty lounge where you’ll be able to get a pedicure, manicure and makeup, or even a trim at the Champneys barber shop – the first of its kind in the UK.

Avril Lavigne is coming to Manchester to perform a huge outdoor gig at Castlefield Bowl next summer.
The Canadian singer-songwriter has announced two outdoor shows in the UK in 2024.
She will be performing at Cardiff Castle on July 2nd before heading to Manchester to play at Castlefield Bowl on July 3rd, as part of the Sounds Of The City series.
The star will be supported by Canadian rock band Simple Plan, best known for their song ‘I’m Just a Kid’.

Lavigne enjoyed success with her pop-punk songs in the noughties, including the hits ‘Sk8er Boi’, ‘Complicated’ and ‘Girlfriend’.
She is best known for her monochrome punk-style, smokey eyes and long blonde hair – something every skater girl wannabe copied.
The punk-pop star shared her latest studio album back in February 2022 under the title ‘Love Sux’. She later released an expanded deluxe version of the LP in November of that year.
She has received eight Grammy Awards nominations, including Best New Artist.
The UK tour will be a celebration of her Love Sux album and will be part of wider touring throughout Europe in 2024, taking place at festivals including I Days in Milan on July 9th, Festival de Nîmes in Nîmes on July 10th, and Festival Cruïlla in Barcelona on July 12th.
The singer is yet to announce any more UK dates as of yet, but the upcoming dates in Manchester and Cardiff won’t be her only shows lined up for next summer.
Tickets to see Avril Lavigne perform next year will go on sale this Friday, December 1st, at 10am and will be available to buy HERE.
