Somerset

I love all our retreat places but have been on the look out for a new summer venue for a little while. On my wish list was somewhere not too far from home, surrounded by wild nature, ideally with a swimming lake and plenty of space to roam. 42 Acres in Frome, Somerset, offers all of this and more. Regenerative estate, nature reserve and wellbeing centre, I don’t think we can wish for a more perfect place to retreat!

Award-winning 42 Acres in Frome has long been on my radar. Nestled within 170 acres of rewilded land and ancient forest, it’s one of the UK’s most beautiful and regenerative retreat centres. The consciously-restored 15th century Hermitage offers understated luxury and timeless simplicity – natural light, real fires, soft touches, and far reaching views down to the 7-acre lake. Our yoga, movement and meditation sessions will be held in the bright, and rustic Mandala Barn. Our practices will be embodied, intelligent and meaningful, and include Somatic Movements, Vinyasa-style flowing sequences, Restorative Yoga, Qigong-inspired sequences, self-massage, tapping, journaling, and deep relaxation. All meals are prepared fresh on site as part of 42 Acres’ “Soil to Gut” philosophy. Ingredients are organic, seasonal and hyper local – either wild-foraged or grown right here on the farm.

The friendly team at 42 Acres have kindly promised to hold these dates for one week. I would love the opportunity to spend time with like-minded souls at this very special place. Please get in touch by the end of this week if you wish to be part of this retreat.
