Feel calmed and inspired by nature. Come and rewild yourself.
Being There
There is a large deck beside the vines and a lawn with firepit – great for star gazing. Snuggle on cosy armchairs beside the wood burner or even with a cuppa in bed, looking out through the French windows.
Equipped with a kitchen and heated shower room, there is a library of books in the reading nook and a large desk where you can write or use art materials to rekindle your creativity.
Wander into your private woods to feel the beneficial effects of nature with tailored foraging information and a guide to woodland meditation or forest bathing (Shirin Yoku), so you can have a go anytime during your stay.

The Wheatsheaf Pub is a 2 minute stroll away, with great food including breakfast. A short walk through wild flower fields and past historical canal sites is The Packhorse (Southstoke) or for a longer walk, follow a bridle track to The Fox and Badger (Wellow).
Combe Hay is picturesque village with numerous footpaths to explore as well as a beautiful garden up the road, with open days and courses (Caisson Gardens).
