A BUSINESS owner from Halstead has spoken of her delight after her spa was crowned one of the best in the area.
Based in Cavendish, near Sudbury, the Gainsborough Health and Spa has been named day spa of the year 2023 for Suffolk and Cambridge in the Muddy Stiletto awards.
The Gainsborough is a Grade II listed converted barn with swimming pool, newly fitted jacuzzi, sauna and steam room, surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside.
The site also boasts a leisure gym, along with café, relaxation lounge, courtyard and four treatment rooms.
The health club and spa has been running for ten years, with Danielle Alen, from Halstead, becoming co-owner in January 2020.
Just over a year later, the spa won its first award for best day spa with Muddy Stilettos in 2021.
It then won the Travellers Award from TripAdvisor 2022 and has been nominated for Best Health Club in the England Business awards 2023 for Suffolk.
Danielle said she was thrilled to achieve the recognition.
She said: “We are delighted to have won Day Spa of the Year 2023 in the Muddy Stilettos Awards for Suffolk and Cambridge.
"I am as always so proud of my team for the service they provide to our members and guests, as well as all the support and hard work they show me on a daily basis.
“This award means so much to us as it is voted by our customers.
“Thank you to everyone who voted for us, and for your continued support.
“We love being a local, personal health club and day spa where everyone can come and truly relax, escape and unwind.”
