A LUXURY NORTH EAST spa is raising a glass in celebration – after being given a five bubble rating, despite only being open for a few months.
The multi-million pound Spa at Ramside, at Ramside Hall Hotel near Durham, opened in August, with its facilities just receiving a massive thumbs up from The Good Spa Guide.
The Guide is regarded as the leading authority in the UK and only recognises and rewards spas which meet its strict criteria.
Following a recent inspection visit the spa was told the good news – that it has achieved the highest rating.
“We’re delighted to have been told by the Good Spa Guide that we’ve achieved five bubbles,” said Jill Russell, Spa Director.
“It’s very unusual for a spa which has just opened to have achieved this so soon, so it’s a great endorsement for the fantastic facilities we have here.”
The Good Spa Guide said that it loved, “the sense of peace and relaxation that pervades The Spa at Ramside and the amount of natural light that spills into the space.”
The report also praises “the huge spa with plenty of loungers. We also liked the idea of having one area for spa guests only; health club members tend to be in a hurry, while spa-goers need to slow down and chill out.
“The upstairs treatment area is very quiet and restful, and the sleep sanctuary is perfect for chilling out post-treatment.”
Awarding the Spa at Ramside a five bubble rating the Guide praises it for “its light and airy design, extra-large main pool and hydrotherapy pool, excellent spa restaurant, carefully designed treatment rooms and restful sleep sanctuary.”
It also praised the spa for its “good treatments and good value spa days and packages.”
The £8m Spa at Ramside opened in August and offers five pools including one of the UK’s biggest hydrotherapy pools, 14 treatment rooms, a thermal suite, a Sleep Sanctuary and a Rasul mud chamber.
It also offers a wide range of spa experiences which can be totally personalised to each individual.
