How can you make your bathroom the ultimate spa destination? It's easier than you think to turn your bathroom into the perfect private location. Equipped with a relaxing shower or warm bath, it can be the ideal sanctuary for you to unwind and relax, with a few extra elements thrown in.
Cotswold-based interior designer, Vanessa Arbuthnott, has revealed how best to enhance all five senses and recreate a spa ambience in the comfort of your own home. No hefty spa price tags included!
1) Install dimming lights
If a late-night bath is your thing then try and opt for recessed ceiling lights or wall scones that come with dimmer controls. 'With the help of a dimmer you can soften your harsh lighting and get the spa-like feel when you need a soothing soak in the bath,' says Vanessa. 'You can even go the extra mile and install coloured lights for added ambience. Failing that, you can light some candles and place them around the bathroom!'
2) Earthy colour palettes
Nature-inspired colours such as brown, grey, green and soft duck egg blue can give your bathroom a real organic feel. 'If your bathroom is on the smaller side, then opt for a lighter and more neutral colour scheme. Darker colours can create a more powerful atmosphere which isn't as relaxing,' Vanessa explains. 'Taupe, light grey, pale green and soft blues can let your senses be smooth and also can make a small space feel bigger.'

3) Stylish blinds
Don't forget the window treatment! A pretty linen blind will add to the bathroom ambience and create a private feel. You can opt for bathroom rollers or roman blinds depending on your bathroom size and existing lighting options. For a bathroom window Vanessa recommends a laminated roller blind or processed roller blind. Roller blinds are smart and simple, they cover bathroom windows with a single piece of fabric and can be rolled down to provide shade and privacy. You can still use your windowsill to place your spa accessories by adjusting it to your preference.

4) Bathtub caddy
A bathtub caddy is the ultimate bathroom accessory. It's a simple addition but it makes a big impression and comes in many different styles to suit your bathroom. 'A tub caddy is one of the best ways to have an enjoyable bathing experience,' says Vanessa. 'They allow easy access to your favourite bath accessories and hold things such as candles, books and glasses.'
5) Mix in nature
Green plants help to create a healthy environment and a tranquil setting. Bathrooms do have lower light, high humidity and warmer temperatures in the house as opposed to other rooms so it's important to find plants which will flourish in this environment. 'Examples of using plants in the bathroom can be by displaying potted plants on counters, ledges and floors as well as hanging plants from the ceiling. This brings in colour, personality and energy. Go for the full visual ambience by incorporating vines that trail down from the shelves,' suggests Vanessa.

6) Upgrade your shower head
Your shower is the focal point of the room and should be made as luxurious as possible. Provide a spa-like feel by adding in a rainfall shower head, says Vanessa. A steam shower also adds luxury whilst nourishing the skin and leaving it with a healthy glow.

7) Display your pampering
Treat yourself to your favourite spa pleasures such as body scrubs, bath salts and sheet masks. Display them on open shelves or in pretty glass jars on the counter, or line up some of your favourite beauty products along the edge of the bath or on shelves.
