All of the girls are lovely, friendly and highly experienced and fabulous in all that they do. The decor is beautiful and you really do feel like your entering a Secret Little haven from the moment you step in! I’ve had every treatment possible with each of the girls, and really can’t rate it enough! Everybody needs a bit of Secret Garden in their life! Enjoy!
