About

A beauty studio built the way we always wanted one.

WHINSTONE opened in Ponteland for people who want great skin and treatments that suit real life — somewhere unhurried, properly lovely, and entirely free of clinical atmosphere.

Chloe Bennett turned away from the camera with her face back over her shoulder, in the studio.

Our story

It started with a room, and a very specific idea.

Chloe had spent years in rooms that felt like waiting areas — strip lights, laminate, a leaflet rack. The skin work was good. Everything around it was not.

So WHINSTONE was built backwards from the feeling first: warm plaster, pale oak, a sash window that actually opens, and a diary loose enough that an appointment can take the extra ten minutes it needs. Then the treatments were chosen to match — advanced enough to change skin, gentle enough to fit around a Tuesday.

It is a small team on purpose. You will see the same faces, they will remember what you talked about last time, and nobody is working to a sales target.

The WHINSTONE reception: a pale oak counter against a warm plaster wall, a low bench and a single bare branch in a stoneware vase.
Reception, Ponteland — pale oak, warm plaster and a great deal of daylight.

    Sophie Harrington

    Advanced Skin Therapist

    Sophie is the one who plans a proper glow-up — treatments that build on each other rather than a quick fix. Expect your shelf of products to get shorter and your skin to get better.

    Microneedling, peels and seriously good texture

  • Emily Carter in a fitted black tunic with champagne piping, in the studio by the window.

    Emily Carter
