Fowey Hall, part of the Luxury Family Hotels collection, has completed the installation of a new outdoor heated pool as part of a multi-million-pound refurbishment.
Built in 1899 as a family home by Sir Charles Hanson, Fowey Hall is located in the harbour town of Fowey on the south Cornish coast.
The new 18x18m pool has been installed by modular pool provider Myrtha Pools and has been engineered and crafted with Myrtha Pools stainless steel technology.
The pool features a grey tiled finish and a vanishing edge filtration system has been added to improve water circulation and quality.
The new Myrtha Pools solution, which has been designed to LEED, BREEAM and Green Star standards, will provide Fowey Hall a 45% smaller carbon footprint than traditional methods of construction – which use tile and concrete – and cost savings of up to 20%.
The Grade II listed establishment in Cornwall also completed a number of significant improvements in May, including the addition of 20 new modern guestrooms, four brand-new Bay Suites that are located atop the restored spa, and a renewed outdoor terrace that runs parallel to the new pool.
Nick Walley, general manager at Fowey Hall, said: “What we offer here is a much-loved family retreat in a beautiful part of the country, with an ongoing improvement programme that helps to enhance and retain Fowey Hall’s unique character.
“The new pool will sit alongside an entirely re-landscaped outdoor area, which demonstrates our commitment to ensuring new and existing guests have a fantastic stay with us. In time for the summer season, we’re excited for families to experience our new offering at the historic Fowey Hall.”
