Relax, Restore, Reconnect: Launching Our Wellness Line-Up
Written by: Rosie Collins
We’ve always believed that living better starts with good food – food that is nourishing, packed with quality ingredients, rooted in provenance and best enjoyed when it's in season.
But it doesn't end there. Living better goes beyond what's on your plate and that’s why we’re expanding into the world of wellness with three feel-good experiences designed to help you feel your best… inside and out.
From energising workouts to countryside sauna sessions and soothing massages, there’s now even more reason to spend time with us – whether you’re here to shop, eat, move, or just take a moment to relax & unwind.
Here’s what’s new…
Top to Toe Fitness
Our long-standing fitness partner, Top to Toe Fitness, has expanded into a dedicated space right next to Swale Barn Vets – and it’s looking fantastic.
The new space means they’ve got even more room to bring people together through their popular fitness classes and add extra sessions to their already packed timetable. At the heart of what they do is community – empowering people of all ages and abilities to move their bodies, support one another and feel stronger together.
Seascrub Sauna
If you’ve ever fancied combining traditional heat and cold therapy with a view over the Kent countryside, this one’s for you.
Seascrub Sauna offers a unique Nordic-inspired experience with a wood-fired sauna, cold plunge and hot tub. It’s all about slowing down, switching off, and reconnecting – with yourself or with your friends & family.
Serene Massage Therapies
Last but definitely not least, we’ve welcomed Serene Massage Therapies to the upper floor of Macknade, right next to the Apple Loft Events Room.
Run by locally renowned therapist, Vicky, Serene offers a range of treatments including Swedish, Deep Tissue and Hot Stone massage – perfect if you’re looking to ease tension, unwind after a long week, or simply carve out a bit of calm in your day.
Book your treatment via Fresha here.
Half Day Wellness Retreat
Treat yourself to a fusion of fitness, sauna and sound therapy during a half day wellness retreat at Macknade on June 14th.
Begin wiith an energising workout with Top to Toe Fitness, followed by a relaxing session at Sea Scrub Sauna and an immersive gong bath. Wrapping it all up is a nourishing lunch cooked by Chef Merilees Deller using seasonal Macknade produce.
Spaces are limited so book early to avoid missing out on that much needed me-time!
