Location so relaxing, fantastic staff and of course chef Ton
I’ve visited for a retreat (Fri-Sunday) To reset & rebalance from a busy job & lifestyle. Upon arrival it was very relaxed, staff welcomed us & given us forms to complete. We had the choice of 3 meal plans (Juice diet, Nourish, or Plant based) we decided Nourish. We then was given a tour & seen to our rooms. We had a retreat schedule which consisted of (Nordic walk/ Yin yoga/circuit class/abs attack/ stretches & Yoga) if you didn’t want to attend any class it was your choice and not obligated. The room was lovely, clean & equipped with shampoo, conditioner/ hand wash & hairdryer facilities. The bed was Queen sized & the room was very modern in design. We relaxed down in the spa of which is very calm luxury. With a hydro pool/sauna/steam/ Ice & water therapy/ dry floats & Infrared loungers. The spa garden had a cold water kneipp walk/plunge pool & a kneipp foot rinser which helps reduce aches, pains and inflammation. And strengthens your immune system. That evening we had dinner which was botanical & I didn’t enjoy so I asked for an alternative and was given soup (with no fuss) Breakfast was botanical with oak milk, not to my preference so I had an apple. The portion was small also for breakfast. For us not on a weight loss journey I felt it could have been tailored a little more. Lunch was swapped last minute due to us not eating fish - to plant bases (which was lovely bigger portion & tasteful!) Snacks - in the morning it was celery and from 4:30pm it was a max of 2 protein balls per person. There was also on occasions lemon slices to add to your water. We both had a treatment booked, And found them both lovely. One treatment used castor oil and was 40minutes. The other was a back massage and was 25minutes. The outside terrace is solely to lounge with different seating, so you’ll need to break a book to fill time. They also have an outdoor jacuzzi. The surrounding fields had cows/alpacas & lots of scenery to rest with in the distance passing occasional trains. Overall we were happy with our stay. But felt it was more tailored for everyone detoxing. In the future we hope to return to see other options for those coming who aren’t solely focused on diet for a weekend escape.
Excellent stay, totally relaxing and rejuvenating
Second time here... If you are undecided... Just do it. Not just for weight loss , though I had gone primarily to get into exercise again and have some delicious juices. Since returning, however I'm full of energy and organising stuff I've been leaving for ages. So it's brilliant for brain and mood function!
