The Cleve Spa

My therapist talked most of the way through my treatment and even asked about my work! Not what you want when you’re trying to relax. The pool was nice and warm. Well kitted out gym.

Reception staff very nice showed us around the place. Had a look around before our treatment. Called in for treatment the young lady failed to tell me her name. Didn’t offer me a choice of oils. Told me to breath deep as there was something under my nose? Wasn’t asked throughout the massage if the pressure was ok? It was a pleasant massage but didn’t get into the muscles at all. Only using one hand most of the time when doing my back did not feel she went low enough either. I only found out the difference in the options when I spoke to my sister later in the day. As we went together and she appeared to have a choice of oils lavender or lime and a far superior massage to mine. Our day came with lunch. It all looked lovely on a wooden board, then the soup arrived in a mug not sure if it was warm when it should’ve been cold or warm when it should’ve been hot? The temperature was very tepid. I couldn’t eat it as it was far too spicy for my taste. (A personal choice). Between my sister and I we couldn’t decide what the flavour of the quiche was it was very bland. The cheese was tasteless as was the ham,which was also chewy. The only saving grace was the bread roll which was delicious. We used the sauna jacuzzi and pool plus other relaxing rooms. Couldn’t use the steam room as it wasn’t working but didn’t have any sign telling us this. It was too late to tell anyone as we were due to leave so didn’t waste our time trying to find someone. Overall I have had much better massages and lunches. I enjoyed my day with my sister but came away disappointed.
