    The environment at Hillsborough Spa invites rest: it is clean and calming with beautiful artwork. The front desk staff person welcomed me with warmth and professionalism.
    Then, I received a massage from Margery Price. Her skillful work was a combination of therapeutic and restful. She uncovered some tender spots---tension I had no idea I was carrying. I think I entered another dimension! Many thanks to all at the spa for such an exceptional experience.

    I got a wonderful massage today by Allison. This spa is so peaceful, serene, and relaxing. The perfect little day off or special occasion get away. All 5 senses were happily satisfied from the delicious snacks, refreshing water and non alcoholic champagne, the music at the perfect volume, it was beautiful and everything was clean. The massage was obviously the star of the show and was exactly what I needed. Corinne at the front also gave the experience the cherry on top. Such a cute, cozy, gem this place is. I will be back soon!

    This spa was exceptional. Small, tucked away into the woods. Couples massage was incredible. Absolutely loved it and we will go again.
