A new beauty salon in Ambleside has earned the seal of approval from Cumbria Tourist Board's chief executive.

Chris Collier, who officially opened Eustacia Hair, Beauty and Nail Salon, said: "This is just what the area needs, the dcor of the salon is beautiful, and although the treatments are contemporary, the salon has maintained its Lakeland style."

Businesswoman Deborah Hampsey, who is behind the venture, said she had wanted a salon that was in keeping with the style of Ambleside, but offered more contem-porary treatments at affordable prices. The salon has created eight new jobs.
