A Lancaster beauty salon has been crowned the best in Lancashire at the English Hair and Beauty Awards.
Tranquil Spa & Beauty at Salt Ayre Leisure Centre overcame stiff competition from other salons across the county to win the ‘Beauty Salon of the Year: Lancashire’ award.
The 9th English Hair and Beauty Awards were held at The Mercure Manchester Piccadilly Hotel on Sunday.
Tranquil Spa & Beauty previously won ‘Spa of the Year’ at the 2020 English Hair & Beauty Awards and claimed the same title at the local Bay Business Awards in 2019.
The Spa consists of a Thermal Spa Journey, Aroma Steam Room, Herbal Sauna, Ice Chute and a Watermill Sauna, the first of its kind in the UK, which soothes aches and pains whilst detoxing the mind and body.
Rachel Williams, Salt Ayre general manager, said: “I couldn’t be more delighted for the team.
"To achieve another national award after the challenges that Covid-19 has thrown at us is an outstanding achievement.
“Credit to this team, who were helping support our local community by working as part of the Morecambe Bay Foodbank at the height of the pandemic, and have since returned to their therapist roles with renewed passion and enthusiasm to push our business forward and deliver outstanding service.
“We also couldn’t have achieved so much in the short time we have been open without our wonderful customers, who have supported us along our journey.”
Tranquil Spa & Beauty opened in 2017 as part of the multi-million pound development project at Salt Ayre Leisure Centre.
In the latest development the centre has undergone a decarbonisation programme through the replacement of its gas boilers with air source heat pumps, external LED lighting and upgraded glazing to reduce energy consumption. A solar farm has also been built on the adjacent disused landfill site to generate electricity.
