I'm looking for a modern-day 'Sanctuary' (since the one in Covent Garden closed) for myself and some girlfriends to have a pampering day out together. Either in London or short-ish train/car journey away. I've found the Old Street one that has been recommended previously, which looks great, but it would be good to give my friends a choice.


There was a similar thread not that long ago, but I can't find it (anyone else find the search function a bit hit and miss on here?!).


Any day spa suggestions (or a link to the other thread) would be very gratefully recieved. Thanks!

There is York Spa (not the most luxurious, but easy to get to in Bethnal Green via the Overground... and you are right in walking distance from Hoxton/Shoreditch for a fabulous lunch/cocktails afterwards. You can book a 2-3 hour slot where you get to use the steam rooms, sauna's, there's an area where you can lounge on sunbeds and drink tea. (I think its about ?27 for the time in the spa, or they have packages as well which are all inclusive of use of spa and a treatment) You can book different treatments, and I have found them to be of a really good standard.

Was it this thread? http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?29,982460,982885#msg-982885


or this one? http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?29,880313,880486#msg-880486


I have since been to two of the spas I was hankering after - Corinthia and Coworth Park - and can highly recommend both if you really want to treat yourself. My sister and I bought each other a day together at the Corinthia for Christmas this year and on a cold wet January Monday spent hours and hours on the heated marble cleopatra beds - really blissful!

    • Another singing Leon's praises.Professional,efficient.Fairly priced.Great communication.  And happy to do my couple of small jobs.    
    • They’ve overhauled the kitchen and I gather they have a new chef. Also, a new menu is on the way.   What with Norbert’s arriving soon on Melbourne Grove, there’s going to be an Interesting offer down there.   
    • I watched this BBC expose on the news a week or so ago and wasn’t surprised at what they found although ii’s shocking when you see what the Police uncover. The amount of nail bars in London appearing almost daily is also cause for concern. What I can’t understand is the places that were raided had thousands and thousands of pounds of unpaid gas, electric etc bills. 
    • GPs are general practitioners, hence the name; they are not specialists.  Specialist doctors only work in hospitals.  Each GP surgery has a catchment area; you cannot just choose a GP because you think they are the best match for your health condition, you have to be in their catchment.  If you are not happy with the one you are currently with, ring round the others nearby and find an alternative who is able to take you.  Then, work with your hospital clinic and the GP together to maintain your health. As an aside, I have a chronic autoimmune condition and have had no problems with the shared care of my GP (The Gardens) and hospital consultant ( I am under Prof Heneghan).  I visit the clinic twice a year, they advise my GP of any changes and the GP does my prescriptions (which include a controlled drug) and my blood tests in between.  When there has been any queries about compatibility or suitability of a treatment, the GP contacts the team at Kings for advice.  The system works perfectly.   Good luck with your change of GP and give them any hospital letters when you sign up.  A GP along cannot manage your condition, so you will need to ask your hospital specialists to set up a new shared care agreement with your new GP (this has to be done this way; a GP cannot set that up).
