The retreat currently has 6 firepit areas, all complete with dining spaces and seating. They are available to every guest and member.
Situated all over the retreat are purpose built firepit areas to share good times and food. As a member or a retreat guest you can simply book one and use it, cooking your own food.
Log packs are available and firepits range from the large 1.2m diameter iron pits that can cater for up to 25 people to the smallest firepit and grill on "the edge" lookout overlooking the whole retreat.
Get in touch and tell us what you require and we can help you choose the best space for your plans.
We regulary hold organised firepit cookouts at sunset and supply food for all tastes and appetites. Cook it yourself or we can do it for you.
Guest and members joining our transformations, experience days and visiting for the day can book onto our fully catered firepits. A schedule is soon to be available within the member community platform and as the peak seasons begins will become more regular.
If you are interested in coming alone or as a group, get in touch. We have a selection of meat, vegetarian and vegan options and drinks can be included in the price or you can bring your own. It's up to you.

WE LOVE FIREPITS
& WE LOVE COOKOUTS
There's nothing like a fire to help people connect and for a great cookout. That's why the Zen Jungle retreat has lots of them and lots of spaces to get together with great food and a fire. You can arrange your own or join one of our regular organised cookouts for retreat guests and members.

The retreat is a place to become thoughtless and find peace but there's also lots to see and do in the 40 acres with 5 beautiful lakes, woodland walks, ceremonial theatres and quiet seating spaces and lots of shared firepits and activities.
The retreat is becoming totally self sufficient and will soon be the grower of all produce served. Water is fresh from our borehole and ingredients are fresh. Food will soon become a central part of the retreat experience, with our new bistro, lakeside bar and firepit and regular weekly cookouts. It's a great place to be if you like great food or even to bring your own.
Our calendar is building and will be released soon. We are now booking for a summer festival and will be host to several internal and external events. If you are looking for a teaching space or somewhere to hold an event, please get in touch.
Our yurts have capacity up to 85 people and will be served by the bistro bar and kitchen.
