Leicestershire · Destination spa · Six pools and thermal spa
Ragdale Hall Spa is a dedicated countryside spa near Melton Mowbray, designed around inclusive spa breaks and days with extensive bathing, thermal and fitness facilities.
Why consider it
Ragdale works particularly well for guests who want a spa to be the purpose of the trip rather than an extra within a hotel stay. Its scale allows time to move between serious swimming, quieter hydrotherapy, thermal rooms, treatments and fitness sessions without trying to fit everything into one short appointment.

The spa experience
The six-pool layout gives each part of the visit a different rhythm. The main pool supports length swimming, while the candle pool is deliberately quieter. The waterfall pool continues outdoors, and the rooftop infinity pool looks across the Leicestershire countryside. The Thermal Spa adds steam, sauna, sensory and cooling experiences rather than relying on one conventional heat suite.
Treatments and wellbeing
Most spa-day and spa-break packages include at least one treatment, although the exact choice depends on the package. Ragdale advises booking inclusive and additional treatments early. Fitness classes and pool-based or outdoor activities broaden the programme for guests who prefer an active element alongside quieter spa time.
