See inside newly-renovated luxury spa and wedding retreat in Staffordshire woodland
The first step of a plan to renovate and upgrade a Staffordshire venue and spa has been celebrated with a champagne reception.
The Venue at Moddershall Oaks Country Spa Retreat near Stone in Staffordshire has officially reopened to the public after undergoing a six-figure renovation which saw the bar and flooring updated, more neutral colours set in the ceiling and floor and a more modern feeling set up for the room.
The grand reopening was marked with a champagne reception held by director Penny Weston and members of staff, with the great and good of Staffordshire business invited to enjoy a glass of fizz and canapes while taking a closer look at the Venue.
It's a major boost for Moddershall Oaks, which is set in woodland north of Stone and covers more than 70 acres of land, including a spa and wellness centre, a restaurant and an area for weddings and corporate events.
Penny Weston said it was about bringing more people into Staffordshire and promoting the Venue as not just a wedding venue, but also a place for all types of events.
She said: "We wanted to reinvest in the business as we are really keen to keep bringing more business and tourism into Staffordshire.
"We've always been popular with weddings, but we felt that a refurbishment would help to promote the other types of events like corporate retreats and away days and things like that to make it an all-purpose location.
