Top five wellness tips to kick off your 2016 in style

At Stanley House we specialise in creating an experience like no other but how can you ensure your 2016 is unique for all the right reasons?

Here, we put together our top five tips on how to make this year beautiful on the inside and out.

Move More

Physical activity provides more than countless benefits to your body. By generating endorphins, the happiness molecule, it boosts your vitality, improves your self-image and minimises the risk of depression. It also increases cognitive function.

Why not work out the stress of your busy day in our fully equipped gym which is open to our residents, or add some balance to your life in our Pilates studio? Whether your focus is strength, flexibility, inner calm or agility our stunning views across the rolling Lancashire countryside provide the perfect backdrop.
