The Great Bentley Retreat

25/05/2026

After nearly 16 wonderful years in Great Bentley doing beauty treatments, I just wanted to say a huge heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who came along to my farewell gathering ❤️

It was so lovely to see so many familiar faces, including some of the old staff, My not so old partner in crime Amanda and to have people pop by throughout the day — even if it was just for a quick hug before heading off to other things. It truly meant the world to me.

I am currently surrounded by beautiful flowers, plants, thoughtful gifts, gift vouchers and kind cards… alongside everything that was in my treatment room!! I honestly can’t thank you all enough for your generosity, support and lovely words and messages.

A very special shout out to Denni and Julia for decorating the salon with balloons and banners, and for their friendship, love and support throughout everything ❤️

This definitely isn’t goodbye… many of you have already said you’ll still be popping in for cups of tea, and once I’m able to drive again I fully intend to catch up with lots of you at the pub or during little trips to various garden centres 🌿☕🍰

Thank you as well for all the offers of help, visits and support to help keep me sane — it means more than you know.

With lots of love, always ❤️

I’ve been getting a steady flow of plants and flowers since I broke the news of me closing due to upcoming surgeries and treatment. This is just this weeks haul so far!! 🥰
I’m sure you can understand how overwhelmed I am at the kindness you’ve shown me these past few months especially as well as over the years. Thank you from the bottom of heart ♥️ I can’t thank you all enough.
I know some of you can’t pop along on Saturday. You will be missed but many of you who can’t make it I will see for cups of tea or a drink in the pub when I’m recovered! ###

I’d love to invite my lovely clients and friends to a farewell party at the Village Hall as a big thank you for your support — whether it’s been over the last few months or the last 16 years 💛
Amanda will be there too, so it’ll be a great chance to catch up, enjoy some food, and celebrate some great memories together.
Please message me if you can make it so I can plan food and drinks — and feel free to bring your partners and little ones! 😊

Throw back from a few years ago? 🤣

What April fools have had you fooled over the years?

It’s been so hard to contain our excitement!
We can finally announce our Dog friendly pedicure service!!!
The Paws Retreat room is located at the back of Beaver House so please enter at the rear of the car park as we do need to keep our treatment areas separate.
(Now all the recent doggy posts make sense)

We will just be undertaking claw clipping and painting at the moment but are working to bring you more treatments for your furry friends! Eco friendly naturally!
