I just wanted to thank you for organising our break at Henlow this weekend. Heidi and I had the most fantastic time and everyone has been commenting on how well I look since I came back to work! Jane Hamilton - The Sun, Henlow 2010
It was very nice not to feel pressurised into purchasing your creams and lotions following a treatment. However, I dont think I have ever left a resort not having made a purchase. Maria - Tring 2010
‘As on previous visits I am always amazed at the high standard of service and comfort maintained at Forest Mere. I have to comment on the excellent service provided by the Restaurant staff, as a single stayer I have always been made to feel welcome and staff go out of their way to ensure guests are comfortable. I have been so pleased with my stays at Forest Mere that now several friends have made independent bookings.’
Denise, Forest Mere – February 2010
‘The house/spa is elegant without being overpowering and the grounds are simply stunning. I loved the attention I received right from the first moment I entered the building. Champneys' staff are courteous and helpful. After being greeted on arrival with fruit and drink - much appreciated - I went on the country walk - a bit muddy but thoroughly enjoyable. I also did Pilates, aqua fit (superb!) and stretch and relax classes. I wondered as I drove home whether I had overdone the exercise - but, amazingly, this morning I feel invigorated and energised. Thanks for a truly wonderful day! ‘
Marion, Henlow – February 2010
‘The staff were delightful and made us feel very welcome. The food was fantastic, the chefs need congratulating! My treatments were all wonderful too!’
Vanessa, Forest Mere – January 2010
'I was bowled over by the spa. I haven’t been to Champneys for many years – it has certainly become even more amazing and yet retains a very nice, relaxed unpretentious atmosphere. Dinner on Saturday night was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented and breakfast was equally lovely. I was really impressed by the Champneys manicure too – all in all it was wonderful. My friend went to the yoga class on Sunday and she said it was one of the best she has ever been to.'
Sarah Barclay - You Magazine, Tring - January 2010
'I've never been on a spa day before, so to me the whole day was fantastic, very relaxing, very friendly staff, and the lunch was great too.'
Emma, Henlow - January 2010
‘Very friendly staff and the treatment rooms were very relaxing. The area where the sofas were was also very relaxing and the food was exceptional.’
Andrea, Springs – January 2010
'Last year I had major neurosurgery, complicated by deep vein thrombosis in both legs. 5 months of bed rest took its toll on my whole body. Following doctors advice, I booked a Traditional Week at Champneys, Tring. They have opened a centre for Medical Excellence, called Regenerate. I booked 2 sessions of physiotherapy and was so pleased, I booked an extra session! The therapists are professional, fully qualified & caring and the bonus is, treatments are covered by medical insurance, such as BUPA. I will be returning for another visit in February.'

'The experience was fantastic, the food was amazing, well presented clearly healthy but filling. Service in all areas of Champneys is A+++ the staff make a real effort to make you feel welcome and special. A few things did not go right but the staff were immediately on hand (especially the management) and willing to help, all was resolved easily and above my expectations.
In summary- go here, relax take it easy, recharge the batteries and get a load of points from your partner!'

'My family (6 of us) and my friend's family (4 of them) had the best time at Henlow Grange this Christmas. I wanted to cry when it was home time on December 27th!'
Anna May, Henlow - January 2010
'I would just like to say a really big thank you for my stay at Champneys Tring.
I normally go to the Caribbean this time of year, however I must say this was so much better than the Caribbean – just wished we had the hot weather!!
The staff were very pleasant and helpful and the treatments both my partner and I had were amazing.'
Freda, Tring - January 2010
'After reading how Jenny Hanley met the challenge of a seven day Champneys Fit Camp, I booked up immediately. I wanted to look good for my birthday, and if she could do it, so could I! I joined 12 others at Champneys Springs and, from early morning power walks to playing netball, the activity never stopped. I haven't laughed so much in ages! I made firm new friends, lost 14lbs, and felt fit and fantastic! Thank you W&H.'
Sarah, In this month's 'Woman & Home' Magazine
'Our visit to Champneys Tring was such a wonderful experience. We all felt very well looked after with excellent service from all of your staff. The premier changing rooms were fantastic and made us feel very special. We will certainly be returning to Champneys and recommending to anyone who listens!'
Ele, Tring - December 2009
‘This is my 4th visit and I have been very happy with the experience each time. I am most impressed that the number of staff who actually recognise me. The food is wonderful, particularly the fruits and muesli at breakfast. The food in the evening is also beautifully presented and delicious.’
Theresa, Springs – December 2009
‘As always, the service from the staff in all areas was superb and we commented to each other on several occasions on how even the youngest members of staff were very friendly and professional. Also, the food was excellent with a great many choices to suit all tastes.’
Sandra, Springs –December 2009

‘I came here with the intention to lose weight and I have been here since July 2009. I can honestly say that I have enjoyed my experience and lost a total of 7 stones and feeling like a new man. I would recommend this place for anyone that wants to relax, unwind and get away or in my case lose weight.’
Tring – November 2009
‘I arrived at Champneys in July and was supposed to stay for one month but it was such a great place that I stayed for four months. I came alone at first but then my dad came and was supposed to visit me and stay for a week...he liked the place so much that he's been here for 3 months now!!
I will really recommend everybody to go and try the fantastic experience because I can keep on writing about what a great place it is but you will have to go there to really know how good it is...Champneys is really the place to be.’
Tring – November 2009
‘Each time I visit, there is a wonderful relaxing feeling comes over me. Nothing exceeded my expectation, as I always expect the BEST.’
Elizabeth, Henlow – November 2009
‘All I can say is WOW! It might not have all the different spa rooms that other resorts have, but it is good old fashioned customer service that sets Springs head and shoulders above the rest.’
Springs – October 2009
‘I came for a two night stay with my wife and had a fantastic experience, the staff were so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The food was such an experience as good as any top restaurant. It was great to actually switch off from the day to day to stresses and only have to worry about getting to my treatment in time or what to eat for dinner. The gym was well equipped with staff on hand to offer advice on fitness. A great find, will definitely return. 10/10’
Forest Mere – October 2009
‘My daughter and myself have just returned from Forest Mere on a Mother and Daughter package.
I would like to say a big thank you to all the staff who were extremely pleasant and very professional. Nothing seemed too much bother. I would also like to say that the food was exquisite, I never realised that you could feel so full on such healthy food. Everything was presented to a very high standard and the cooking was perfect.
We have both come away feeling relaxed and refreshed and will certainly be recommending this to our friends.’
Lesley, Forest Mere – September 2009
‘I had the pleasure of attending Champneys today. I have never been to a spa resort and recognised that I would have a glorious time however this was more than surpassed!
My friend and I were greeted by a very helpful receptionist. Often in today's society you find that some people do not have such professionalism but all members of staff I came into contact with today are a credit to your organization.
I only have one criticism of my day and that is I wished I booked to stay longer!’
Nysha, Springs – September 2009
'Every time I have been, it has been perfect!'
Caroline, Forest Mere - September 2009
'Once again, I leave Champneys in Tring feeling like a new man! It is such a magnificent place, I always hate leaving. Please pass on my thanks to your amazing team in Tring for being the fantastic hosts they are. The beauty treatments staff, the gym instructors, the cleaners, the restaurant staff, reception, all world class! Can't wait for my next visit!'
Toby Anstis, Tring
'Having have had a lot of physiotherapy and medical input since being critically ill two and a half years ago, I was left with a lot of pain and a brain injury. I finally went for a complete break to Champneys, Tring, I actually consider myself lucky to have found Emma James Physiotherapy and Regenerate.
They are professional, know their business, keep thorough records, get results, make it fun and nothing is too much trouble.
Regenerate changed my life; it gave me hope that all things are possible. What more can I say but thank you.'
Joanne, Regenerate at Tring
'I found Emma James Physiotherapy ( at Regenerate) to be absolutely fantastic. The work she did on my ankle was mind blowing because it was a full treatment. I had a five day stay at Champneys and saw Emma for an hour session each day and my ankle responded remarkably. Emma even introduced me to acupuncture which proved very beneficial. Emma took time to show me all the related exercises that I could do once back at home. She opened my eyes to working with pain-she really did the work on it and I now have very little pain (my treatment was just last week). I found the service to be excellent, very convenient and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. You have just got to get Emma!'
June, Regenerate at Tring
‘I loved the general feel of the place and being able to fully relax. Luckily the weather made it feel even more special, as it felt that we were abroad! The service was excellent, and we were made to feel very special.’
Laura, Forest Mere – August 2009
‘I am writing regarding my recent stay with you at Tring. I was absolutely over the moon. It ran like clockwork , the staff were so helpful and friendly and the manager (who I now know to be yourself Patrick) was totally hands on.
On arriving you helped carry our bags from the car!
My mother was having problems with her legs and you went out of your way to help (even trying to move our room closer to the facilities) other staff arranged for a therapist to give her a consultation in our room.
The restaurant staff (especially the elder gentleman) were fabulous.
Basically I know usually you only ever get to hear if people have had problems, so i thought it would be nice to her the opposite.
I will be coming to Tring regularly now (I've actually just booked to come back in September) as your well run resort, polite, friendly and charming staff have ensured you have a regular client who has recommended this to everyone.
Julie Ashley, Tring – July 2009
‘My East meets West massage with Andrew was beyond all expectations and left me with a pain free back for the first time in years. I recommended to other guests. All my meals were thoroughly enjoyed and as I visited alone for the first time I sat at the Champneys Table for dinner and made some new friends and we are all going to try and come at the same time for our next visit.’
Lee, Henlow – July 2009
‘Fantastic...very relaxing and enjoyable. Had a wonderful Yoga class as a first experience and loved it so much I am considering joining somewhere in London. Am trained as a beauty therapist and thought the girls that gave me my treatments were very professional and friendly...it was lovely.’
Naomi, Forest Mere – July 2009
‘The staff were so helpful and friendly, and the facilities were superb. We were pampered like royalty.
I had a vision of being offered a solitary lettuce leaf for lunch - I couldn't have been more wrong. I had no idea healthy food could be so delicious. I left feeling as if I had been on holiday for a fortnight - and with a new-found resolve to live a healthier life!’
Lucy, Springs July 2009
‘The accommodation and general settings/decor were akin to a 5* hotel, everywhere spotless at all times. All the staff were friendly, professional and welcoming.’
Julie, Tring – June 2009
‘We have had approx 10 visits now to Springs and there has never been any problems. Food is delicious, service in all areas is first class, a truly amazing experience. Just wish I could come and spend more time there.’
Hannah, Springs – June 2009
‘I came to Champneys Fit Camp to get fit, become more active and hopefully lose some weight. The experience has far exceeded all my expectations and the nerves I felt soon disappeared as I realized just how much fund exercising could be. The food was delicious and the fitness team is second to none.’
‘Best thing I have done for myself in ages. The team have supported and pushed me and the group itself has become a team! ‘
‘I am totally convinced that this was the best investment I have made to improving my health and fitness. I would recommend it to anyone. Great value for money, huge fun and great programme. It has been an enormous journey with fantastic results.’
‘I would rate it as one of the best experiences of my life.’
‘A first class course for healthy, sustainable weight loss.
