On this day in 2024, the Ipswich Star reported that the Muthu Belstead Brook Hotel, near the Pinewood estate in Ipswich, had been named the most-booked spa in Suffolk by Spabreaks, a prominent spa experience booking company.

Experts in wellness at Spabreaks revealed that the hotel accounted for 39.6% of all spa bookings in Suffolk during 2023.

This recognition was not the first for the Belstead Brook, as it also received the Booking.com traveller review awards for 2024.

The hotel, which was originally sold in 1988 by the Hatfield family, had been put up for sale for £2.5 million in 2014 before being acquired by the India-based leisure chain Muthu.
