A five-star Enniskillen hotel's spa has been named the Best Spa of the Year at a recent ceremony.

The Thai Spa at Lough Erne Resort scooped the award at the Firmus Energy and Local Women Magazine Business Awards 2024.

The awards honour inspiring businesses and female leaders in Northern Ireland.

The prestigious accolade was awarded to the spa for its "impeccable management" and "highly trained team", which provides a "fully immersive sanctuary" for guests.

The judging panel consisted of female representatives from the business community, who carried out in-depth research, examined online reviews and conducted mystery visits to the premises before making their decision.
