ABOUT

When you’re yearning for a moment of escapism, or longing for total relaxation, look no further than the Great Bentley Retreat. Our aim is to provide clients with a menu of treatments that benefit mind, body and soul in a relaxed, homely environment.

The Retreat started life in the spare room of a bungalow in 2010. Since then we have gone from strength to strength while maintaining our eco friendly and sustainability approach to our business.

Our friendly and professional experienced staff are here to give you a great service, so you know that when you have a treatment with us you'll be in good hands.

The setting for these treatments combines a perfect harmony of cutting-edge treatments and salon techniques with a homely environment. We believe this unique setting allows for a more natural state of relaxation, allowing you to enjoy an enhanced experience. It is a place where you can talk, clear your head, laugh, or even just spend the time asleep; while the treatments give you time to think, or just to escape from the world outside and best of all the treatments rooms are air conditioned.

We have two treatment rooms and one large reception/ manicure room. Our main treatment room is ideal for couples treatments as we have two heated massage couches set up for you to both relax together. We also have an electric couch in each treatment room for our less mobile clients.

Our main focus is to ensure your comfort, allowing you to fully relax from the strains of day-to-day life. Once you leave, you will have benefited from an experience of total relaxation, beauty enhancement, or both. Whether you're longing to find your inner paradise, or just want to invigorate yourself with a pampering session, then look no further for all your holistic therapy or beauty needs.

The Great Bentley Retreat is the culmination of hard work, training and experience within the health and beauty industry. All these elements have been combined in our mission to create a special environment dedicated to your wellbeing.
