Kerstin Florian and VitaMan exclusive at Ashdown Park

Ashdown Park Hotel and Country Club in Sussex unveiled its new spa concept at Revitalise on 18 July, launching exclusive treatments from Kerstin Florian and men's only brand VitaMan. 

It is the first UK spa hotel to use VitaMan and the only one to offer the Kerstin Florian specialist anti-ageing K-Lift Ultimate Lifting Facial.   Its partnership with European brand Kerstin Florian stems from its reputation for results in a relaxed environment, with treatments drawing on natural elements including mud, algae and essential oils. 

The K-Lift Ultimate Lifting Facial is tailored to mature, dry and aging skin concerns with multi-acid peel, LED red light and Impulse MicroCurrent to awaken cell functions, accelerate skin repair, re-educate muscle tone and trigger DNA regeneration. Other signature Kerstin Florian treatments available at Revitalise include Ultimate Forest of Dreams, which uses wild lavender in a two step body scrub, warming wrap and full body massage with warm stones; and the Kerstin Florian Advanced Age Repair Facial.


VitaMan products derive from the Australian bush using plant, herb and fruit extracts, all free from harmful chemicals, artificial fragrances and colours. Two treatments are provided at Revitalise - the VitaMan De-Stress Facial Treatment and the VitaMan Ultimate Facial.


In addition to six treatment rooms - offering manicures through to full mother-to-be rituals - guests can enjoy an indoor heated swimming pool, sauna and hammam, as well as healthy and light menu options at the Fairway Restaurant. 
By autumn, Tylney Hall in Hampshire and The Grand in West Sussex will also feature Kerstin Florian and VitaMan, with each hotel offering distinctive signature treatments.
