Comer Homes and David Lloyd Clubs plan to deliver world-class health resort at Newland Park
28/01/25
Following engagement with local residents, councillors and stake holders leading developer Comer Homes and David Lloyd Clubs, Europe’s leading health and wellness group, has submitted a new planning application to Buckinghamshire County Council, to obtain planning consent for a state-of-the-art facility at Newland Park in Chalfont St. Peter.
During construction the project is expected to create more than 60 construction jobs, whilst generating more than £4million for local subcontractors and companies. With plans to start work on site in 2025, the David Lloyd Club at Newland Park will create 80 to 100 full-time equivalent jobs and will also engage with the local community as the leading health group has committed and delivered at all their new club openings to date.
Sufficient parking will be present, with 231 car parking spaces inclusive of 16 disabled spaces and 6 parent and child space, as well as 20 cycle spaces. The scheme will also see improvements made to traffic passing places on Gorelands Lane to improve road-safety.
Additionally, Comer Homes are finalising an agreement with Amersham & Chalfont Hockey Club to enhance their existing facilities at their Amersham College site.
Brian Comer, Co-Founder and Chairman of Comer Homes, said: “To partner with David Lloyd Clubs to deliver this market leading health resort is a real testament to the prominence of Newland Park. There is nothing else like this in the surrounding area, so the facility will be a real asset to residents and the local community. It is the cherry on top of the cake for what will be one of the UK’s finest developments.”
Stuart Caswell of David Lloyd Clubs stated, “We have, following consultation with the local community, submitted the application and are optimistic about delivering an exceptional health and wellness facility within the stunning Newland Park development. The brand-new club will feature the very best from the David Lloyd Club products, providing residents in the immediate and surrounding areas with a space they can enjoy daily.
“Additionally, it will create numerous jobs for the local community across a range of roles in the sports and hospitality sector. We eagerly anticipate confirming plans with local authorities and commencing work on this new David Lloyd Clubs development.”
Occupying a prominent position on the private gated 200-acre development, the brand-new David Lloyd Club will offer world-class health, fitness, racquets and spa facilities that is certain to become a popular leisure destination for residents of Newland Park, as well as for health and wellness enthusiasts in the surrounding areas.
The Newland Park Club will deliver exquisite finishes throughout, with close attention to detail to ensure the space compliments the breath-taking surroundings of the local area. In keeping with the expansive landscaping and woodland, the David Lloyd Clubs plans have been designed with sustainability in mind, with new wildflower meadows, woodland planting areas, water run-off areas and hedges with ground cover and trees to car parking areas.
The centrepiece of the Newland Park Club will be the 100+ station gym, which will house David Lloyd Clubs’ cutting-edge gym concept with an unrivalled array of best-in-class equipment. There will be four group exercise studios, a hi-tech indoor cycling studio, a high energy studio, a Mind & Body studio plus the David Lloyd Clubs Signature class BLAZE studio.
A collection of stunning indoor and outdoor heated swimming pools will offer a range of activities, including aqua aerobics, family swim times, children’s swimming classes, and quiet adult swim sessions. The new club will also feature multiple Padel and tennis courts for the racquets enthusiasts that want to enjoy social games with friends and family and other members.
The indoor spa and spa garden will provide the ultimate place to relax, recharge and rejuvenate with indoor and outdoor hydrotherapy pools, heated relaxation beds, a Himalayan salt sauna, fire and ice experience room and rainforest experience shower.
Family sits right at the heart of David Lloyd Clubs, which fits perfectly with the wide-open green spaces and family friendly amenities at Newland Park. In addition to the structured, progressive swim and tennis coaching, children can look forward to activities with the DL Kids team. Based in a dedicated area in the Newland Park Club, they will host a vast range of fun and engaging activities that develop skills and build confidence.
The Clubroom will give local residents a comfortable space to enjoy socialising and relaxing with family and friends with carefully zoned seating and a menu featuring delicious freshly cooked food and drinks.
A business area will provide the perfect alternative to working from home, and with the added benefit of being able to visit the spa or squeeze in a quick group class between zoom calls. Plus, an outdoor patio area will offer a space for outdoor dining and drinking on warmer days and evenings.
