About the Role
New Bath Hotel & Spa, a charming 54-bedroom establishment nestled in Matlock Bath within the scenic Peak District National Park, traces its roots back to 1745.

One of its iconic features is the outdoor Lido swimming pool (1934), fed by mineral-rich spring water for a natural, chemical-free experience.
