Treatment OF THE MONTH
One of the best treatments we’ve had (and the longest) is Ragdale Hall’s Golden Indulgence. The 155-minute treatment (yes, a blissful two-and-a-half-plus hours) begins with a foot soak, followed by a full-body exfoliation and a wrap with Champagne extracts. Then the serious stuff: a lifting facial and neck massage, and a gold and plant collagen mask to soften wrinkles. It ends with a full-body massage and hot stones. It’s a perfect ‘pretox’ before the party season and a great excuse to visit Ragdale Hall Health Hydro and Thermal Spa in Melton Mowbray, with its second-to-none thermal spa, gym and exercise timetable. Golden Indulgence, £160; one-night breaks from £211, ragdalehall.co.uk.
