THINGS TO DO AT THE RETREAT
EAT & DRINK AT THE RETREAT
EVENTS, SPACES & FESTIVAL SCHEDULE
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.
