We visited Beckside Spa Retreat a few weeks ago to celebrate my husband’s 35th birthday- it was honestly such a special experience! Jo really went above and beyond, had thoughtfully put out birthday balloons for him (and even let us take them home), along with some lovely birthday treats which were such a kind touch. It made the whole visit feel very personal and carefully planned. The food was absolutely gorgeous, homemade stone baked pizzas and goats cheese salad amongst other nibbles and nosecco (as requested!) Jo’s treatments were amazing too, relaxing and exactly what we needed. Another reviewer posted photos which captured the beauty of the spa much better than me. If you’re on the fence about booking, just go for it. You won’t regret it. We will definitely be back to lay in the hot tub whilst watching the alpacas. Highly recommend. Thank you so much Jo xxx

A wonderful sanctuary & spa in the heart of Cowling, North Yorkshire. Jo, the owner and therapist is amazing at everything she does, the hot stone body massage is truly lovely to experience.

I had the most amazing experience with Jo at Beckside Spa Retreat. She was so attentive, caring, and genuinely passionate about what she does - you can really tell she loves her work, and it shows in every detail. She absolutely didn’t disappoint. This was a lovely gift from my brother and his wife, and I honestly had the best time. The whole experience was relaxing and felt really special. I’ve already booked back in and can’t wait to go again. Highly recommend Jo and Beckside Spa Retreat!

Beckside Spa Retreat is a truly wonderful escape. From the serene surroundings and beautifully kept facilities to the warm, attentive staff, every detail encourages deep relaxation. The treatments are luxurious and tailored, and the tranquil atmosphere makes it easy to unwind completely. Thoughtful touches—plush robes, peaceful lounges, and stunning views—elevate the experience. I left refreshed, pampered, and already planning my return. Highly recommended for anyone needing restorative time away.

I was treated to a spa package at Beckside Spa for my 30th and I couldn’t recommend it enough. The atmosphere was so warm and welcoming, so much care had been taken over little details to make this feel like a really personal and luxurious experience. We were so well looked after. My back massage made me feel like I could melt away, and feeding the alpacas was a really fun addition to the experience. I have recommended Beckside Spa to many of my friends and family since and would love to return. Thank you for very special birthday!

What an amazing place to relax and spend time with special people. I went with my 3 daughters and we had a fantastic time. Jo and Kelly looked after us so well. The facilities were first class; hot tub, sauna and comfort relaxation room. Not forgetting and the prosecco and a lovely homemade lunch. We all enjoyed a great treatment and even got to feed the friendly llamas. We definitely intend to go again.

A fantastic spa day! We visited the retreat as a group of 4 and took part in the 'healing harmony' package. We would highly recommend a visit here. From start to finish, our experience with Jo was exceptional. The facilities and attention to detail are most definitely 5 star! The treatments we had were excellent and the Alpacas were so wonderful to see. Every little thing has been considered and special touches made our visit even more special. Thank you again Jo!

Chemical Peel Facial

March 4, 2026

I visited Beckside Spa this week and as always it didn’t disappoint .

I had a chemical peel facial treatment, and it was absolutely amazing. After what felt like a long winter of hibernating, my skin was dull and in serious need of some TLC. The treatment completely refreshed and revived my complexion — I walked out feeling glowing, confident, and like myself again.

As always Jo was welcoming from the moment I arrived. She always makes me feel comfortable, relaxed, and I know I’m in very safe hands. She explained everything clearly and made the whole experience feel personal as well as being so professional

If you’re looking for a boost after the colder months, I can’t recommend Beckside Spa enough. A truly lovely experience from start to finish!

Hen do spa retreat

October 29, 2025

Wow!

I have been to a few spas in my time and I have NEVER seen a spa quite like this one.

Luxurious, gorgeous, beautiful. All of the above!

The attention detail is incredible, flowers to look at whilst you’re getting your massage, slippers, dressing gown, blankets. They really couldn’t have thought of anything else!

The afternoon tea was beautiful and presented perfectly.

The alpacas were so friendly and wanted to get in on our girls day but also happy to give us space.

Jo & Michaela were beautiful women, so attentive, friendly and warm. I would return just for a catch up with these ladies.

I really cannot wait to return, you really have something so special. Thank you also much for having us and making or bridey and us bridesmaids have the most perfect spa day!

We hope to see you very soon!

BOOK YOUR SPA NOW! You will regret it if not hehe!

Perfection

Jo has created a beautiful sanctuary of peace, tranquility and relaxation. The spa setting is stunning overlooking the Yorkshire countryside and her lovely alpacas.

We have visited a few times now and each time are warmly welcomed and Jo’s attention to detail means we want for nothing.

The treatments are outstanding, tailored to your individual needs using high quality skin products. Nothing feels rushed or too much trouble.

The food is fabulous both pizza and charcuterie are so good and of course the whispering angel wine!

Our only complaint is we have to leave! This is most definitely a piece of paradise and our happy place to come and recharge and relax.

Jo you are amazing 🤩 Thank you x

Calming, tranquil retreat

September 8, 2025

This was my first ever time having treatments at a spa. I had a hot stone back, neck and shoulder massage followed by a Indian head massage. I came with abit of pain in my shoulder / neck.

Jo felt the tightness in the area and After the massage I felt so much better and relaxed.

I loved the hot stones! so calming. I would definitely return again! And I would come for a spa day to try out the spa facilities 😀

Jo was friendly and welcoming making it easy for someone who hasn’t been for treatments before.

Best ever facial ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

August 25, 2025

I had the best facial I’ve ever experienced at Beckside Retreat with Jo. From the moment I arrived, Jo gave me such a warm welcome and took the time to talk through the treatment, which instantly made me feel relaxed.

The treatment room is absolutely gorgeous – calm, comfortable, and the perfect place to unwind. Jo is so knowledgeable, gentle, and professional, and I truly felt pampered from start to finish. My skin was left glowing, renewed, and completely rejuvenated.

I’ve already booked a course of Lumi facials and can see a real difference after just one session – I’m so excited for the next ones!

Jo is incredibly kind and considerate, and she made the whole experience feel magical and special. Thank you so much, Jo – I can’t wait to be back soon! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The most amazing facial!

July 21, 2025

I recently visited Beckside Spa retreat for a facial and the experience exceeded my expectations in every element. The treatment room is serene, warm and inviting creating the perfect atmosphere for relaxation, and the host Jo is so welcoming and gentle! Jo began with a quick consultation to discuss my skin type and what I was hoping to achieve in order to tailor the treatments. My skin was truly pampered throughout with a double cleanse, exfoliation, a bubbling face mask, red light therapy and soothing serums. Jo elevates the treatment by offering a shoulder/ arm massage whilst face masks sit, making the most of every moment. I left with a radiant complexion, a sense of calm and an urgent desire to rebook! I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a professional, personalised and relaxing facial- Thank you Jo!

Gorgeous little retreat

A little piece of Heaven

April 15, 2025

From the moment I arrived at Beckside Spa, I knew I was in for something truly special.

Greeted by the fabulous Jo, who instantly made me feel welcome and completely at ease. Jo’s warmth, attention to detail, and genuine care made me feel completely relaxed from the time I walked across the little bridge to what I would describe as a piece of Heaven – she truly went above and beyond to make the visit unforgettable.

The spa is nestled in stunning grounds, surrounded by nature, with curious, beautiful alpacas adding a whimsical, serene charm to the experience. It’s a tranquil oasis that feels worlds away from the everyday.

As you step inside the spa, you are immediately enveloped in a peaceful ambiance that melts away any stress. I began with a luxurious hot stone massage that was nothing short of heavenly. The warmth of the stones combined with expert technique left me feeling deeply relaxed and completely renewed.

Next, I indulged in the Prescription Facial – a completely tailored experience that left my skin glowing, hydrated, and noticeably refreshed. Every product was perfectly selected to my individual needs, and the results spoke for themselves.

From start to finish, my visit to Beckside Spa was exceptional. If you’re looking for a rejuvenating escape with top-tier service, personalised treatments, and the warmest of welcomes – this is the place. I left feeling pampered, chilled and at peace with myself.

Just perfection!

March 26, 2025

We arrived at the Spa and were met by our fabulous host Jo who immediately made us feel so welcome and instantly relaxed. Jo was just exceptional and made us feel like Queens 👑

The grounds are beautiful with ducks and alpacas who like to say hello too!

As we entered the Spa we were both just blown away by the attention to detail and the pure luxury that greets you. We both enjoyed an amazing hot stone massage , sauna, stone baked pizzas, salads, sweet treats with a few glasses of fizz and an amazing dip in the most impressive hot tub I’ve ever seen. It was just perfection! Thank-you Jo and Ian for a fabulous experience, what a treat that these two ladies needed….we’ll certainly be back very soon xx

It was everything and more!!

March 25, 2025

I recently had the pleasure of visiting lovely backside spa retreat, and it was an incredible experience! From the moment we walked in, I felt a wave of relaxation wash over me. The ambiance was serene, with soothing music and calming scents that set the perfect mood.

Jo who took care of us was absolutely amazing. She was attentive and skilled, providing a range of treatments that felt tailored to my needs. From massages to facials, she seemed to know exactly what would make me feel rejuvenated. It was like she could read my mind, and every touch was just right.

I also loved that the spa retreat was private, making it feel even more special, it allowed for a truly personalized experience. I left feeling refreshed and pampered, and I can’t recommend this place enough for anyone looking to treat themselves to a day of bliss.

We can’t wait to return!!!

Amazing place

March 24, 2025

I attended this beautiful spa with my best friend as we wanted an experience and relaxation.

We arrived at this beautiful location and we were met by our beautiful host Jo . From the moment we arrived we were made to feel special.

The SPA is absolutely stunning . It was everything i imagined and that little bit more.

We both had a hot stone massage something I had never had before. It was absolutely lovely ,I have not felt as relaxed in a long time . I could literally feel my stress melting away. Following this we had wood fired pizzas and beautiful sweet treats . All presented beautifully. The attention to detail was absolutely gorgeous .

We then spent time in the hot tub which was delightful whilst in the hot tub the friendly alpacas came and sat in view and relaxed us ,it was so calming and tranquil . The sauna was just right to warm us through.

Jo and I am were the perfect hosts . I cannot recommend this SPA enough to anybody wanting relaxation and a little luxury

Jodie

We would love to hear from you...
