Claire was professional and really friendly, with a personality that has a calming affect. She gave helpful advice and showed so much empathy and understanding to my situation. Her massage was brilliant, with me feeling less tense immediately . Would highly recommend here... Brilliant experience.

I attended The Little Retreat for the first time on 27/01/22 having seen an advertisement in the Aroundtown magazine. The advert was for An Ultimate Pamper Experience, and sounded extremely appealing. Andrea was very obliging, she kindly booked me in and greeted me on my arrival. Claire very kindly did my treatments, she was friendly, professional and extremely kind - I felt very safe in her healing hands. The environment was relaxing and tranquil, and I felt completely at ease. From beginning to end it was a truly amazing experience - the BEST massage I've ever received. I came away feeling totally invigorated and refreshed - it was just what I needed. I will definitely be returning and would highly recommend this salon if you're looking for a little 'me time'. Pure heaven*****

Had the most amazing massage and facial with Claire, 2 hours of pure bliss. I can’t remember a time when I felt so relaxed. She puts you straight at ease and really works her magic 🥰 I can’t wait for my next appointment ❤️
