Introduction

It may sound like a rehab venue but this amazing spa hotel otherwise known as Breadsall Priory, just outside of Derby is nothing of the sort. Everything in this 13th century-built hotel is designed to make you feel good, indulge every one of your senses and make you welcome. The building is quite awesome, with its beautiful views and old-style charm, and the spa is amazing, the perfect place for a relaxing pamper day. Make the most of the delicious cuisine while you’re here, enjoy the pools and fitness and hide away from the stresses and strains of everyday life.

The Spa & Treatments

The spa has everything you need for a perfect spa day, from top of the range treatments provided by the very best spa brands like CACI and Decleor, holistic therapies to soothe and rebalance you from the inside out, bliss-inducing massages and grooming for men and women. Enjoy the attention of a skilled spa therapist and leave the spa treatment room feeling like you've had a holiday. If you can still manage to find your way to the pool, you can swim a few refreshing lengths, take a dip in the Jacuzzi, or steam/sauna away and remaining knotted muscles.        

Fitness

There's plenty to do at the Priory Retreat Hotel if you fancy adding in some fitness. As well as the lovely heated swimming pool with its extra facilities to chill out in after a nice long swim, you can wander in the spa hotel's grounds and contemplate the beauty of it all, or head up to one of the well-equipped and modern leisure suites and try out the cardio machines, free weights and resistance equipment.      

Cuisine

For a casual meal or snack, the best place to head to is Tempo, where you'll find delicious, modern British dishes and a relaxed atmosphere. Also in the hotel is the more formal, rosette-winning Priory Restaurant which needs to be booked in advance and serves up a delicious selection of internationally-inspired cuisine, and a great selection of fine wines to wash it all down with.

Professional and Relaxig

I found the therapist to be very professional and helpful and could not do more for us. I wanted to swap one of my treatments and they were more than accommodating. The only downside was that to get to the treatment area you had to go outside. Food was great - staff even reserved a table away from the noisy golfers which was nice of them so do not let that put you off. Gorgeous surroundings - would have been perfect on a sunny day.

Relaxation and me time

A warm welcome awaited us and although we had no voucher for our visit as it was booked at short notice whilst we were away from home this was not a problem. We were treated in a friendly and courteous manner and our programme for the day was explained. The treatment areas were comfortable and clean and the therapists friendly and efficient. It was lovely to be able to relax in such wonderful surroundings and I would love the opportunity to return and maybe stay overnight!

Relaxing must try experience

Priory retreat was the most relaxing experience. The spa is within a hotel which we had full free roam over to use all of the facilities available , steam rooms, swimming pools , sauna rooms, gym, amazing food pretty scenery including the golf course in and around the grounds and plenty plenty more Therapy Staff were all very pleasant, polite and very professional they made me and my mum feel very comfortable and at ease. I had a facial and a massage and i felt amazingly refreshed, the young girl I had was highly qualified and I can\'t put into words the quality and high standard of customer service she provided its a shame I cant remember her name for a recommendation! My mum had the pedicure and massage and loved every second of the whole days experience as it was for her birthday Thanks to all staff THE PRIORY RETREAT SPA IS A DEFINATE MUST !!

Relaxing Day

My daughter and I had a Spa day at the Priory. The treatment area was very nice, the treatments very good and the staff very professional and pleasant. However, the spa area and pool were separate from the treatment rooms so it did mean that we had to keep dressing and undressing to go from one area to the other. Lunch was good and served in the bar but this area was used by the golfers so very noisy. We really enjoyed the day but would have preferred to have been in a quieter and more relaxing atmosphere between treatments.

Not so relaxing as other spas

I found the treatments to be first rate. The therapists were professional, helpful and knowledgeable whilst still being friendly. What I did not like was the fact that you couldn\'t sit and relax in your dressing gown. After a swim, in a pool shared with local children having a swimming lesson, I had to get completely re-dressed to walk through the public bar to get to the treatment rooms, which were in a different part of the hotel. Lunch was taken in the bar, which was full of golfers whose language was very colourful. Not ideal.

Priory Pamper Day

I must say on receiving the gift of a Men\'s Spa Pamper day from my sister for my 50th birthday I was somewhat hesitant and thinking the whole idea was not my cup of tea at all. However I was very happily surprised at how much I enjoyed the experience. The Marriott Priory Hotel is set in the most beautiful parkland to the north of Derby. On arrival I was given a tour of the facilities by very helpful staff for which nothing appeared to be too much trouble during the whole of my stay. After a rigorous work-out in the very well equipped gym I relaxed in the steam room, sauna and pool. A light lunch was then followed by my spa treatments. A back and neck massage followed by a full facial was one of the most relaxing afternoons I\'ve had in a very long time. The experience was most definitely a wonderful birthday present from my sister, so much so I\'m planning my next trip.

lovers pamper day

My husband and I had a very enjoyable day. It’s not like going to Ragdale Hall but ... you are not paying Ragdale prices. We were not sure what to wear or if to take towelling robes to go round in... So pleased we didn\'t. We decided just to wear sports gear ...jogging bottoms trainers etc. You could just go in normal clothes and take sports gear with you, As really you are just in a hotel using the their Gym and Pool. On other reviews people moaned about the light lunch... but we had a sandwich side salad crisps a cup of tea and dessert...and it was more than enough. The treatments were very enjoyable. Overview would be.... very enjoyable day...this is not a health farm so do not go expecting really relaxing surroundings, it is a Hotel with usual Hotel day to day noise.
