David Lloyd Ukkel is located in the majestic, leafy setting of a château to the south of Brussels. David Lloyd chose to renovate the burnt out castle to provide a breathtaking back drop for the fitness, pool and spa. The castle is a listed building and Pellikaan refurbished it, restoring the characteristics of the building, based on postcards and other sources of information.

In order not to interrupt the setting, the indoor tennis hall was constructed under the underground car park and the new buildings (fitness and pool areas) were situated down the sloping terrain so the view from the road stayed the same.

The luxurious feel is continued in the high quality finishes throughout the building. With over three hectares of grounds and 10,000m2 indoors, the centre includes a gym, studios, tennis courts, four swimming pools, jacuzzi, saunas and a Turkish bath. There are also crèche, a restaurant and bar, a beauty salon and a hairdresser’s. The outdoor pool can be viewed through the glass wall from the fitness suites or indoor pool and visa versa. The outdoor pool is heated all year round to provide the ultimate comfort and usage.

This truly unique project is an authentic, aesthetic treasure.
