Nature gym design
Nature is at the heart of Fritton Lake in Norfolk. Now, the private holiday and members club has launched a brand new nature gym designed by Matt Aspiotis Morley of Biofit Health & Fitness and Biofilico wellness interiors.
Biophilic design gym
The strategic objective behind this hotel gym design consultant project was to bring the wellbeing benefits of the great outdoors, inside, leveraging the biophilic concept to provide additional wellbeing benefits for the gym users.
The first of its kind in the region, members and holiday guests have full access to the nature-centric gym, located in a barn next to the Clubhouse, seven days a week.
Sustainable gym concept
To create a truly unique workout experience which supports Fritton Lake’s commitment to sustainability, Fritton Lake enlisted gym consultancy Biofit - experts in creating wellbeing interiors that combine sustainable design with mind-body fitness concepts.
Green gym design
By aligning sustainability goals with athletic performance goals, this hotel gym brings together two concepts into one, providing a different take on the typical hotel gym aligned with the nature-forward positioning of the Somerleyton Estate as a whole.
WELLNESS gym interiors
“Respectful of the bucolic location, we have created a healthy, restorative gym interior that prioritizes non-toxic sustainable materials and natural forms of movement, whilst also facilitating sports performance exercises for those looking to up their game on the lake, road or trails”, said Matt Morley of Biofit gym designers.
Eco friendly gym design
Fritton Lake’s consciously low-tech gym features kit made of natural materials. Four zones are dedicated to cardiovascular, strength, natural movement and group activities. Decor in the barn includes UK-made eco-friendly, non-toxic wall paint in khaki green as well as 100% recyclable, low-emission flooring for improved indoor air quality.
Hotel gym equipment selection
Gym equipment includes an oak-framed manual treadmill, water rowing machine as well as functional equipment including ropes, rings, bars, sandbags and balance boards. Stretching and cool downs are on cork yoga mats, eco foam rollers and mobility balls.
The new gym is a seamless, all-weather, addition to the existing offering at Fritton Lake, where the emphasis is very much on being at one with nature.

Members and guests can enjoy open water swimming, paddle boarding and rowing on the lake, as well as trail running and cycling through the woods, personal training, group fitness and yoga and tennis. There’s also a heated outdoor pool and a new floating sauna on the lake.
