"Quirky, different, stylish a definite one of a kind spa. Lovely courtyard garden to sit out in when it’s sunny. It’s like a little mini discovery cove where you wonder what’s round the corner. "

"This spa is a little treasure it’s self and not forgetting the staff, what a beautiful safe haven for anyone looking for a relaxing day. I can’t recommend enough the salt room it’s fantastic and sure I feel asleep in there for a few minutes, the garage spa has five bubbles but in my opinion it’s above and beyond. If you have the chance please go and treat yourself you won’t be disappointed. "
