How We Got Started
Founded in 2024, Olive & Orchard is the newest chapter in the South Causey Inn story - an upmarket yet warmly welcoming hair and beauty salon set within one of the original stable blocks of the old Equestrian Centre. Once home to more than 100 horses (and later transformed into the Inn’s own working brewery!), this beautifully restored space now offers a luxurious retreat where modern style meets rich heritage.
Just a stone’s throw from Stanley in the heart of County Durham, Olive & Orchard brings together a team of six exceptional experts who share one passion: delivering five-star service with genuine warmth, friendliness, and care. As well as offering precision cuts, flawless blow-dries, aesthetics, indulgent massages, rejuvenating facials, and eye and nail treatments, the team are renowned bridal hair and beauty specialists.
Relax, Refresh, & Rejuvenate
Step inside and you’ll find a chic, stylish salon and luxurious treatment rooms designed to help you slow down, breathe out, and enjoy a well-deserved break from the everyday hustle. Sink into relaxation with a pampering treatment, refresh your look with a gorgeous colour and cut, or treat yourself to a little beauty boost - our team will take care of the rest.
Open seven days a week, Olive & Orchard sits beside the award-winning South Causey Inn, a family-run country pub, restaurant, and cocktail bar known for hearty hospitality and beautiful Beamish Valley surroundings. The Inn’s stunning Hot Tub Houses and Luxury Pamper Houses even feature private massage rooms, indoor hot tubs, and stylish lounges, perfect for pairing with one of our bespoke hair & beauty packages and salon experiences.
Salon Luxury Meets Country Charm
At Olive & Orchard, we offer a full range of hair and beauty services designed to help you look and feel your best. From stunning balayage and creative colour treatments to sleek, stylish cuts and professional blow dries that last, our expert team is here to make your hair dreams a reality.
But it’s not just about hair, we also offer indulgent beauty treatments, including relaxing massages, rejuvenating facials, and specialist treatments for the eyes and brows. Plus, our pop-up aesthetics clinic brings the latest in advanced skincare and cosmetic treatments right to the salon.
The team also specialise in bridal hair and beauty, offering bespoke wedding packages designed to support every moment of your celebration. Whether it’s exquisite hair and make-up for the bride, polished grooming and styling for the groom, or beautifully coordinated looks for bridesmaids, the mother of the bride, and your wider wedding party, Olive & Orchard creates timeless, camera-ready finishes tailored to your personal style.
Unforgettable Packages & Experiences
Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, planning a hen or groom’s party, treating yourself, or looking for a little pre-wedding pamper as a bride or groom-to-be, our packages offer something truly special.
From privately hiring the salon for your group to enjoying spa treatments in your own mini spa retreat, with a huge hot tub, a dedicated treatment room, and delicious tapas bursting with flavour, you can design a day that feels effortlessly indulgent.
At Olive & Orchard, luxury isn’t about being formal or fussy - it’s about feeling looked after, welcomed, and wonderfully relaxed from the moment you arrive.
