In June 1973, Ragdale Hall first opened its doors as a health hydro and plans for next monthå‘s celebrations are well underway at one of Englandå‘s favourite destination spas.

Advertising at the time promised “Gentle jogging, exercise and yoga sessions, together with the clean fresh air of Leicestershire will act like a tonic and help you sleep like a baby!” And with a diet of only 500 calories per day, it was surprising there were any takers!

Oh how things have changed…
