The Imperia Spa opens this month
Gleddoch Hotel & Spa Resort, one of Scotland's most beautiful, privately-owned estates, is poised to open the Imperia Spa.
Set across 350 acres of rolling countryside, just 20 minutes from Glasgow, the multi-million-pound development will be a 'decadent tribute to the grandeur of a bygone age', according to hotel insiders.
Inspired by Gleddoch's heritage as the stately home of shipbuilding magnate, Baron Lithgow, and by the majestic salons of Europe's grand imperial hotels, the Imperia Spa is all about elegance and excess.
The wellness venue is drenched in gold, obsidian black and marble, and adorned with quilted upholstery and fluted crystal - giving all the hallmarks of old-world luxury.
Announcing the development, Gleddoch's General Manager James Anderson said:"The Imperia Spa is the culmination of a vision: to create a destination that transcends trends and defines its own standard of luxury.
"Every moment, every detail has been carefully considered and is designed to delight and transport our guests to another world.
"We are proud to introduce a spa experience that will not only elevate Gleddoch but further position Scotland among the world's most distinguished spa destinations."
Phase one of the development, opening this month, introduces a stunning collection of artistic features inspired by the distant shores once visited by the ships of Baron Lithgow.
Highlights include a breathtaking antique gold and obsidian black indoor pool, the exotic Palm Room orangery filled with rare palms and the grand Veranda, an open-air lounge infused with the intricate elegance of Moorish design.
Designed to surprise and delight at every turn, The Imperia Spa promises guests a series of curated 'moments of delight', from the soft strains of Chopin, cooling fresh mint towels and the scent of Persian jasmine on arrival, to bespoke spa rituals tailored precisely to each guest's desires.

For indulgence and relaxation, Imperia Spa will feature the UK's largest outdoor sauna with panoramic views over the Clyde Estuary and rolling Renfrewshire hills to Ben Lomond.
Guests will also discover a full range of thermal facilities including a pink Himalayan salt sauna, aroma steam room, salt steam room, ice fountain, heated loungers, hydrotherapy pool and cold plunge.
In addition, the spa will offer a serene spa restaurant, a wellbeing studio, a state-of-the-art fitness suite, seven luxurious treatment rooms and dedicated sanctuaries for pre and post-treatment relaxation.
Signature treatments will be provided using product partners including Natura Bissé, Elemis, Temple Spa and Ayurvedic specialists, Tri-Dosha.
