CThe Culloden Estate & Spa has completed a comprehensive €716,000 dual-phase renovation programme to celebrate its landmark 150th anniversary. Positioned on a 12-acre estate overlooking Belfast Lough. The five-star hotel underwent extensive interior, dining, and wellness transformations following a year of substantial market growth.
- Guest Rooms (€580,000): The fourth-floor Garden Rooms and Deluxe King guest rooms received fully redesigned layouts utilizing rich terracotta and deep-green color palettes. The upgrades integrated bespoke furniture, ambient lighting, and complete bathroom overhauls outfitted with marble-effect stone finishes, brushed-brass fixtures, and walk-in rainfall showers.
- The Ailsa Suite (€46,000): This private dining and event venue was meticulously refurbished to mirror its original 1876 Victorian heritage. The design features William Morris wallpaper, rich navy undertones, velvet and leather seating, and a custom marble boardroom table.
- The Spa & Fitness Studio (€93,000): Enhancements added high-end marble flooring spanning the entire reception area alongside modernized retail spaces and dedicated lounge seating. The fitness suite was equipped with state-of-the-art weight resistance systems and premium treadmills.
To mark the completion of the upgrades, the property is hosting the return of its outdoor Bollinger Champagne Garden through the summer months, presenting curated menus and scenic views of the Antrim coastline. Additionally, the venue has launched an exclusive Retreat & Restore package running from June through November. Priced from €824 for two adults, the experience features an overnight stay, a 150-minute ESPA treatment, full access to the upgraded thermal suites, and a traditional full Irish breakfast.
