The Stretch Station To Open In The Stamford Quarter
Altrincham’s The Stretch Station is set to open a brand new Longevity and Recovery Studio in the Stamford Quarter in Autumn 2026.
Luxury beauty and wellbeing brand Rituals have opened a new store in the Stamford Quarter which offers shoppers an immersive experience into Rituals’ signature range of luxurious bath, body, and home products, designed to inspire moments of mindfulness and self-care in everyday life.
Located in the heart of Altrincham, the new Stamford Quarter store reflects Rituals’ sensorial and holistic retail concept, designed to engage customers through rich storytelling and wellness-focused experiences. Altrincham’s vibrant high street, award-winning market, and affluent, style-conscious community, makes this the perfect setting for Rituals' new store.
David Charlton Head Of Asset Management at Bruntwood, commented:
“We are delighted to be welcoming Rituals to the Stamford Quarter. As a brand committed to wellbeing and sustainability, it is the perfect fit for our high street. This latest arrival shows just how much the Stamford Quarter is thriving as we continue to attract exciting stores, big brands and independent businesses.”
Cllr Liz Patel, Trafford Council’s Executive Member for Economy and Regeneration, said:
“Altrincham is a fantastic place to live, visit, shop and do business. We are very pleased to welcome Rituals to our town centre.”
Annemarie Forsyth, Managing Director, Rituals Cosmetics (UK & Ireland), says:
“We’re delighted to be expanding our presence in Greater Manchester with the opening in Stamford Quarter, Altrincham and at Manchester airport where we will bring the Rituals experience to these thriving and high-footfall locations. Our philosophy is all about helping people slow down and find joy in everyday moments, whether through indulgent bath rituals or soothing home fragrances. We look forward to welcoming visitors into our new stores and inspiring them to embrace self-care and mindfulness as part of their daily routines.”
