Jarrolds has been granted permission to revamp some former offices at its flagship store into a spa and beauty salon. 

The Retreat day spa is set to expand into the first and second floors of the department store as Norwich City Council approves the designs.

The proposed plans include an additional three single treatment rooms, a double treatment room, three manicure stations, two pedicure stations and a bar.
