Why Ragdale Hall Spa can claim to be the best in Leicestershire - and one of the best in Britain

Ragdale Hall spa has collected a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence for the ninth year in a row, giving it a claim to being one of the best around.

The spa, in pretty countryside north of Leicester, collected the recognition based on the "quality, quantity and recency of reviews” submitted by TripAdvisor users over the previous year.

To qualify, a business must maintain an overall rating of at least four out of five, have a minimum number of reviews and must have been listed on TripAdvisor for at least 12 months.

According to reviews on the website it is number one out of 30 spas and wellness centres in Leicestershire.

It comes after Ragdale was named best dedicated spa at the 2019 Candis magazine Spa Awards earlier this year.

It has also just been named best day spa in the 2019 Leicestershire and Rutland Muddy Stilettos Awards, organised by the national websites - the second time it has won in that category.

Ragdale co-owner Michael Isaacs said: “As one of the UK’s leading spas we are renowned for our state-of-the-art spa facilities so it’s fantastic to receive a certificate of excellence based on positive experiences, feedback and reviews guests leave for us in an open and unbiased online forum.

“To have retained this TripAdvisor accolade for the ninth-year running is just fantastic, and something we’re very committed to uphold.

“We’re also hugely thankful to everyone who voted for us in the regional Muddy Stilettoes awards.

“It’s an honour to be recognised on a regional level, and the fact that the awards are reader voted makes it all that more special.”

There are 93 bedrooms at Ragdale and 800 country club members, all serviced by a 500-strong staff.

The spa added to its facilities with a rooftop infinity pool at the end of 2017.

It now has six pools and a thermal spa with 12 heat and water experiences - many of which have been exclusively designed for it.

Areas include a fragranced rose sauna and scented room, a 100 per cent humidity volcanic salt bath, the indoor/outdoor waterfall pool and a candle pool where guests can lie in the water and watch the flickering candles and the star-lit ceiling, and enjoy the atmospheric music.
