日前，英国威尔士南部下塔尔波特港委员会已批准通过了Afan峡谷探险度假村规划设计方案——这也意味着，这处位于英国南威尔士、占地325英亩、前身为林业种植园的地块，将兴起休闲度假的热潮。

这处度假胜地由600幢小屋、一座含600间客房的温泉酒店、餐厅以及大量的体育和娱乐设施组成，此外，还包括一所生存学院，该学院由电视名人、退役军人Bear Grylls创建。而整个度假区，也都交由曾因妥善管理中央公园而闻名的Peter Moore OBE监管。

Neath Port Talbot council has greenlit plans for the Afan Valley Adventure Resort – a highly anticipated leisure destination set to rise on a 325-acre former forestry plantation in South Wales.
The new attraction, which is being overseen by Peter Moore OBE – of Center Parcs fame – will comprise 600 trail lodges, a 100-room spa hotel, restaurants, and a plethora of sports and recreational facilities, including a survival academy created by television personality and ex-soldier Bear Grylls.

诸如树屋酒店和水疗中心等度假村内的休闲场所都将采用奥地利酒店和健康专家Heinz Schletterer的设计理念，提供冥想课程、按摩理疗和无边泳池等服务与设施。

Treetops Hotel and Spa – the resort's on-site retreat – will feature a design concept from Austrian hotelier and wellness expert, Heinz Schletterer, and offer meditation classes, massage treatments, and access to an infinity pool.

“我们期望提供一种独一无二、放松身心的水疗体验。” Schletter如是说。

"We look forward to delivering a spa experience that relaxes the body and mind in a unique way," Schletter commented.

在批复规划方案通过的报告中，委员会成员总结道：“Afan峡谷的规划，将大大增进该地区社会经济的增长，同时，旅游目的地的战略定位也将作为当地经济收益的支柱。这些，都符合当地经济发展的期望与关键原则。”

Northern Powerhouse发展集团是本项目的开发商，英国建筑事务所Powell Dobson负责总体规划。全球工程和项目管理公司AECOM将监督度假村的交付。

该计划书自2017年开始实施，各项规划也于2018年12月首次公布。

预计到今年年底，Afan峡谷探险度假村将开始施工。

In their report, members of the council concluded that Afan Valley "would significantly benefit the aspirations and key principles for socio-economic growth in the region, and act as a major contributor to the local economy through the provision of a strategic tourist destination".
Northern Powerhouse Developments is the developer for the project, while British architecture practice Powell Dobson is in charge of its master plan. Global engineering and project management company AECOM will supervise the resort's delivery.
The scheme has been in development since 2017; full-scale plans were first revealed in December 2018.
Construction is expected to get underway by the end of the year.
