Today myself and my wife visited for the frst time. We had a 30min treatment included with our stay... Wow what can we say! The whole experience was so enjoyable, Having never had treatments before, so wasn't sure what to expect? Our treatment was by KAREEMA and AIDEE two very friendly, professional members of staff (Bannatyne Spa) you have two incredible members of your team there. Who we think deserve the recognition for this.....5 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟 review

My daughter treated me to a visit here for Mother’s Day and I’ve been back a few times since – it’s absolutely brilliant! I had a Himalayan massage with Aqdee and she was truly amazing – one of the best treatments I’ve ever had. The facilities are just as impressive, from the saunas and steam rooms to the outdoor seating area, ice water bath, outdoor sauna and comfy lounges. The only thing missing is an outdoor pool for those hot summer days – then it would be perfect!.😍

Lovely spa! Have visited several times for a spa day with my friend, have always had lovely experiences and staff have been friendly and helpful. I have had both massages and facial treatments there and on all occasions experience has been relaxing and products used have been lovely and gentle on the skin.

We regularly visit Bannatyne Colchester for spa days, and usually have a treatment too. The treatments have been a little hit and miss prior, but today we’re absolutely amazing. Elle told us she was a trainee masseuse, but my mum said it was the best massage she has ever had! Elle was very thorough and got all of the knots out of mums back. Alisha provided me with a facial and shoulder massage. Alisha had a lovely personality, VERY bubbly and a breath of fresh air to talk to - not to mention she was very thorough with my facial and really talked me through step by step how I can recreate with the products. We will most definately be coming back to book in with those two ladies. L. We visited Monday 24th March, treatments at 11am. Thankyou

The entire spa was cold. The changing rooms were terrible with one toilet and a disabled toilet that had a tonne of water sitting on the floor. The bar area was cold and I complained with no radiators on. The restaurant areas were cold too. The only good thing was the food. The spa is very run down and is desperate for a revamp. Certainly not worth the money. The massage was good but my feet were freezing and the beautician said the heating had been off all weekend. No electric blankets!

A great spa. There obviously have a gym, classes, beauty treatments; everything you'd expect. Where it really excels is the setting; the grounds here are beautiful so stopping for lunch is a must. Last but by no means least, the spa pool is probably the one of the best I've been in. Sauna, steam, Himalayan rooms, a jacuzzi and a nice large spa pool for general bubbles. Bloody chips are good n'all

My daughter and I had a lovely day with spa treatments use of the pool and a delicious lunch and together with the friendly professional staff it made for an enjoyable experience. However there were a few niggles. The treatment room was so cold that halfway through my daughter had to ask for another blanket. Although it was -4 outside the heating should have been able to cope. Also the receptionist told us that our treatments were from 10-00 till 11-15 we were finished and out of the room by 11-05 Although our lunch was lovely we later realised that the chicken salad had been served minus the tomatoes. As I said a few niggles but it won’t deter us from returning

Great price, products were of good quality. Lovely venue. Therepist who did my facial was very odd she keep pressing one of my shoulders back and asking what exercise I do then telling me I need to stretch more at the end she made personal comments about my appearance she told me to watch my posture and posture makes a face. Left feeling like I didn't quite measure up to her standard. Was then hurried out of the room by another lady. I got straight up and dressed after treatment and was just tying my hair back. Would not recommend or go again.

We arrived this morning for our spa day. Our treatments were held in a couples room which was a nice surprise. My partner had a back massage and a full body scrub which he loved. I had a back and scalp that was basically just her rubbing her hands up and down my back even though she had asked where I would like her to focus and I said neck and shoulders. She very lightly touched my scalp, no oil was offered for the scalp either. The sauna was not hot, the jacuzzi and hydra pool were luke warm at best. The only thing we enjoyed was the ice bath. Lunch was delicious, no fault there at all. But we left after lunch quite disappointed with the facilities

Went for a spa visit today traveled for 4 hours from Wales for our best friends 40th birthday, arrived and our treatment was booked for 11.30 me and my sister were taken into a double room for our treatment (a massage ) laid down ready - started treatment my sisters therapist starts coughing and hacking "ok" carries on to the point I nearly say something! she then excuses herself to get a drink fair enough... treatment marred by this point ....she comes back the coughing continues..... we make a complaint were treated terribly by staff..... I go and re complain and they agree to give a mini facial after being told they didn't realise we wanted something off the back of it!! Like it was our fault! since have learned this same person treated my friend on a another occasion and fell asleep during her treatment and ruined her day terrible treatment! only person who seemed to care for customer was Tina , Fantastic member of staff disappointed in service offered by the rest

Third time going to this spa and love it so much. I went today with my mum for her birthday and we both had a treatment each. I had a back, scalp and foot massage and my mum had a facial, scalp and foot massage and we both loved it so much. The lady’s that did our massage where amazing (we didn’t catch there names sadly). We then enjoyed all the facilities and relaxed during the day and also tried some of the new facilities they added including the ice bath. Staff was amazing and so friendly. Then to top off an amazing day we had a beautiful afternoon tea in the stunning restaurant. Sandwiches were fresh and cakes was stunning. Today was completely faultless Thank you so much to all the staff for a memorable day and we 100% will be back for my birthday

Came here last week with a spa day with friends for my birthday. We booked it 2 months in advance and called to confirm we could all have our treatments at the same time. A few days before, I received an email that showed some people had treatments at a different time. I called to query this, but was told there was nothing that could be done to change it. When we arrived on the day, we were also told that other people had to go at a different time, so we were all split up. We were not informed at any point that the steam room was out of use, until we entered the spa area, which was obviously disappointing. After speaking with my friends about their treatments, some of whom had the same treatment booked, the massages themselves seemed to differ greatly. The masseuse I had did not ask what pressure I would like, she also did not ask to use any oil for the scalp massage, which my other friend was offered. We were also called through 10 minutes late to the treatment, and another 5 minutes of that was confirming our names and what treatments we were having. The massage seemed very disjointed and for multiple points throughout my masseuse was doing whatever else, there were so many wasted minutes of not actually receiving treatment even once it had commenced. I thought she had even left the room at one point. There was no room for any of us in the relaxation room, or around the pool area, as it was very clear that there seems to be no limit on the number of bookings they take for these spa days. Additionally, my friend who is pregnant, was told she was unable to use the pool. However, on the disclaimer form which we completed in the afternoon just before our treatment, only mentions for her not to use the sauna, jacuzzi and steam room, so she missed out unnecessarily. We ended up leaving early as it didn't live up to expectations unfortunately which is a shame

"Absolutely love it here! It's truly my safe space. Tim, Barry, Nic, Tess, Sophie and all the staff are always so friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The restaurant and bar are fantastic, offering great food, beers, and wine. Just a couple of small observations that could make the experience even better: with the new sauna, perhaps there could be a way to control the heat more effectively. Also, securing the water bucket with CT1 glue would be practical since the heater is designed to be used with water and a ladle. Finally, the lockers might benefit from a quick refurb to freshen them up. These are just minor tweaks and certainly don’t take away from the amazing atmosphere and experience here. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking to unwind and feel at home!"

I attended the spa yesterday (16/10/24) with my mum and sister and had a wonderful day. We booked the deal via wowcher for a spa and afternoon tea day. The spa facilities are lovely. The pool area and relaxation rooms made us feel so relaxed and staff on the front-desk were very welcoming. I had a massage by Aidee, which was a great experience and she was so lovely throughout my treatment so a big shout out to her. The whole experience would be a 5/5 but the afternoon tea sadly let this down, the sandwiches we're not of great quality so we didn't really enjoy our food and was hungry afterwards... everything else was amazing though and we had a great day!

I attended as a birthday treat with my mother-in-law and we opted for body scrub and facial treatments. My technician Aidee had verbally confirmed this and checked through our medical history on entering the room. She then ran through what we could expect and directed us how to get ready. The treatments themselves were incredible. She was a very gentle and thorough. I had not had this treatment before and it is now my firm favourite. My only one crytisism is that for perfect zen experience- maybe the lotions can be pre-dispensed to illiminate the squelches of the lotions coming from the bottle. This is in no way a slur on Aidee's incredible skills. I will be returning very soon.

Enjoyed the new outside sauna & cold bath. 4 of us had booked the restaurant but for the 2nd time no other fizz other than Prosecco (wine list also showing at least four other wines, including champagne and English sparking) so we decided to eat & drink in town instead.

Saturday 22nd June 24 - We came as a group of 10 ladies celebrating 4 ‘big birthdays’ and it was a truly memorable day. We were blessed with the weather which was a bonus but the organisation of our day began before we even arrived. A call from Tessa meant that our treatments were all streamlined and didn’t clash with an our lunch, on arrival we were met by smiley faced staff on reception who were very helpful! On to Rhea Jolly in the restaurant who organised the lunches by pre-ordering which meant that there was no waiting or confusion and we all ate together!! A special thank you to Rhea who managed to find a dietary fitting meal for my mum. Treatments arrived and we all had a wonderful experience - I would like to mention Pamela who was amazing!! The whole hour was relaxing, stress free and worth every penny!!

Had a spa experience booked for my birthday, when arrived 10.15 was greeted with " we have had a power cut" . Told to sit in conservatory and wait (they said they would make a decision at 10.30) after a short while someone come round and offered us a complementary juice. By 11.00 still nothing so my friend asked the staff and was told wouldnt know until at least 12.30/1.00. We decided as we had already waited a bit of time on my birthday we wasnt going to waste anymore of my day. As my friend had driven up from Surrey especially and it was my birthday, we cannot rebook now till end of July. I feel there handling of the situation could of been better considering we got a phone call to say don't attend after we had already been and been left over an hour, so was past our 1st treatment time!!

A Horrendous Experience: Avoid Bannatyne Kingsford Park at All Costs! I am writing this review to warn others about the appalling treatment I received from Bannatyne Kingsford Park. My ordeal began when I was involved in a life-altering car accident in July of this year. Given the severity of my injuries, I contacted Kingsford Park to request a pause in my membership while I underwent necessary medical treatment. To my dismay, Kingsford Park insisted on charging a £10 monthly fee for the pause, despite the contract clearly stating that no such fee is required when pausing due to an injury. The individual I spoke to over the phone was not only rude but also dismissive of my situation, showing no care or concern for the fact that I had been through a serious accident. What followed was a relentless campaign of harassment by Bannatyne, pressuring me to pay the pause fee. I was even promised that the fee would be waived if I provided a doctor's note, which I promptly did, considering that my injury rendered me unable to work, let alone work out. I personally visited the location to deliver the doctor's note and informed them about my life-changing injury and the abhorrent treatment I had endured during this incredibly challenging period. I explicitly stated that I wanted my pause fee waived, as per the contractual agreement, and that I wished to cancel my membership due to the traumatic experience I had with Bannatyne. Despite receiving assurances that my requests would be honored, I subsequently received numerous harassing emails and an outrageous charge of £50! I reached out to the on-site manager, hoping for a resolution, but was met with the same level of rudeness and disrespect as before. There was no care, compassion, or consideration for the fact that I had been left with life-changing injuries from a car accident. Instead, Bannatyne expected me to pay £50 and endure condescending treatment. I implore everyone reading this review: AVOID Bannatyne Kingsford Park like the plague! The callous and unprofessional behavior I encountered during a time when I needed support the most is utterly unforgivable. This establishment has shown a complete disregard for their contractual obligations, as well as a lack of empathy and basic decency towards their members. Spare yourself the stress, frustration, and financial exploitation that I experienced by steering clear of this facility. There are far better fitness centers out there that will treat you with the respect and compassion you deserve.

Was recommended by a friend to come to this bannatyne spa. Set in lovely grounds, the place was very clean. 3 out of 4 treatments were enjoyable and relaxing. Problem getting our lunch, we had to wait over an hour as they forgot us. The manager was very apologetic and accepted they were at fault and offered a refund. Overall, we had a nice time but probably won't go back.

I visited Kingsford Park for a spa day and found the experience stressful at times. As a wheelchair user I don't find that many accomodations have been put in place for instance we have to go through the restaurant to the spa reception and water beds. I wonder why a ramp has not been fitted so that we can go through the shop instead. The lifts are antiquated (once we got stuck in the lift!) and it is hard to manouvre through the many doors upstairs in the treatment area. What's more, each time we've visted either the jacuzzi or the steam room is out of order. Unfortunately we also find the food pretty bland, I ordered avocado on toast and it was served sliced on top of the bread with huge pieces of sliced chilli. There was no finesse, I think the avocado could have been mashed with chilli flakes or a nice dressing instead... Disappointing as it's a lovely setting and venue!

Good luck getting a reply to your emails. They don’t want to keep their members apparently.

Good gluten free food Clean changing rooms Lovely relaxing rooms Couldn’t enjoy the swimming pool area though and it gave us all a headache who were on a spa day! They had dance music blaring out doing water aerobics. I did complain to the gym reception and so did other people and she was so rude and said we should checked when classes were I said no we shouldn’t of checked this should of stated when we booked the spa break! I’d expect some money off for that considering I paid £100!

Relaxing spa day. Quite basic facilities. Treatments by Emmy were very good- friendly and happy. And explained treatment and products well. Swimming pool room so hot- just sitting by pool felt like I could pass out multiple times. Felt sorry for the staff sweeping away water on sides -all bright red in the face. Very busy and struggled to get somewhere to sit at times.

We arrived at 10.00 as road's were really busy and we went straight to the spa reception to book in, oh you have to go straight upstairs as your treatments were at 10.00, I showed her our confirmation email stating treatments 10.30 not a good start , nothing was mentioned about lunch just asked for deposit for lockers. Treatment room was cold the therapist did apologise for that, treatments were lovely. On the way down I booked a table for 12.00, when we walked in we were the only one's but it still took 10 minutes for someone to come and take our order. We ordered sandwiches and a hot drink that was nice, when we finished we got up and started walking back to the spa area. Next thing a girl is running through the coffee shop waving a bill saying when she gets to me you haven't paid for your drinks, I showed her my voucher which state's hot drinks included. Oh it's a Groupon voucher wait here while I go and check, she didn't actually come back to me but stood in the restaurant doorway and put her thumbs up. No actual apology afterwards, I was not impressed doesn't matter where my voucher came from it's all business

Had a wonderful day at Bannatyne Spa Kingsford Park today. The facilities are great. Had lovely meal of spicy butternut squash with wild rice ...so tasty and gorgeous and well presented .. rasberry non alcoholic mohita...absolutely beautiful and the man who served us in the restaurant went above and beyond. The treatments with Jade were fantastic...she got so many knots put of my back and done scalp and foot massage. I felt so relaxed and rejuvinated and I cannot recommend enough....fantastic day ..lovely staff...thankyou so much.

Set in lovely grounds with plenty of car parking. The staff here are very polite, helpful and professional. The pool area and facilities are very nice. Membership is available at about £800 per year. The only downside to this establishment and I am surprised to discover this is the changing facilities. Several lockers do not work and some showers were defective. The hydro pool was also out of order. The club looked as if they were short of funds for essential maintenance, which is a little disappointing for Bannatyne Premises!!

Very nice. The gym is small, but has enough equipment for the average gym goer. The spa and swimming areas and facilities are top notch and lovely! The IT system is old and slow, but they do have wrist bands for entry and locker usage Etc. Very clean, very friendly and a nice place.

Enjoyed the carvery, great selection of meats and tasty veg, including cauli cheese, all good. Only issue was the excessive noise, there are no soft furnishings to absorb the sound so noise quickly became excessive and made conversation difficult. The endless smashing of glass bottles into a used bin by staff was very offputting. For this reason unlikely to return, but food was good.
