Two Rhythms, One Escape
The Firefly Spa & Restaurant
Coming in August 2026, the Firefly Spa & Restaurant is an exciting new destination in the heart of Dorset, offering a rare experience as the county’s only lakeside spa, where two rhythms combine – from deep stillness to open celebration, sometimes within the same afternoon.
Guests can enjoy a stylish combination of wellness and delicious dining experiences, with the Spa offering a 25-metre heated outdoor pool, cold plunge, sauna, outdoor showers, private access to the 10-acre Firefly Lake, relaxation yurt and a collection of indulgent lakeside spa treatment pods designed for complete rejuvenation.
Alongside the spa facilities, the Firefly Restaurant will provide a vibrant dining experience, serving seasonal dishes inspired by the surrounding Dorset landscape. Guests can enjoy a casual brunch, lunch by the pool or an evening meal and drinks by the lake as the sun sets.
Firefly Founding memberships are now available ahead of launch, giving early access to these exclusive facilities and the opportunity to be among the first to experience everything Firefly has to offer. Contact us to find out more and secure your membership.
