“I had a fantastic week being thoroughly spoiled - quite hard to believe on a detox program which included a 2 day liquid diet (not alcoholic I hasten to add). But the place deserves its Tattler award for most life changing spa - the staff were thoroughly lovely people and couldn't do enough for the guests, the experts were all healers in some way, the food was luscious, and the facilities were top drawer. A perfect combination.”

Isobel

"A hidden gem in the spa world. Overall, one of the best spas I've been to, and results oriented rather than just 'relaxing'. I'm surprised it doesn't feature higher in the top 10 weight loss spa lists. Personally its very high on my list, and I have tried many of them!"

TripAdvisor review

“Im not a SPA person but I have never felt better after three days at Longevity, the water is pure and the air purer, but the best thing - apart from the pool, the views, the food, the rooms, and the treatments - was the staff. It's invidious to single out any as they were all so incredibly warm and empathetic and professional and good at their jobs.”

Rachel Johnson, Editor of “The Lady” UK Magazine 

”I had a fabulous time and loved every minute. I could very happily live here!”

Honorable Baronese Anne Jenkin

“I have nothing but praise for the staff at the hotel who were unfailingly friendly and helpful. The treatments I received were beneficial in the short term, and, provided I make some changes to my lifestyle, should benefit my life for years to come.”
