Wild Weekend

This land has been allowed to rest, renourish, and rewild. Here’s an invitation for you to do the same.
Book your space

Wild Weekends are a series of life-affirming retreats birthed from this land and our team. They invite disconnection from technology and everyday pressures, and reconnection with something much more profound.

With expansive, wild surroundings; quietly luxurious ensuite accommodation; deeply nourishing vegetarian meals; and lovingly-held experiences designed to support you to consciously slow down and rediscover your place in the interconnectedness of all things.

These weekends are our vision made real. They will stay with you long after you leave this land.

 

 

Nourishing Food & Experiences:

Wild Weekends include all meals from our deeply nourishing “Soil-to-Gut” menu, freshly prepared by our Medicine Kitchen Team. Much of what you’ll eat has been organically homegrown and wild-foraged on this land.‍

Each also includes our signature ‘Food, Fire and Forest’ experience – an utterly magical, elemental evening of food cooked over fire, nestled in a clearing under the forest canopy.

Plus, a schedule of immersive experiences birthed on this land and inspired by the divine wisdom of nature. We also give time and hold space to simply rest and restore.

 

Quietly Luxurious Accommodation:

Inside our spaces, you’ll find understated luxury and timeless simplicity – natural light, real fires, soft touches and far-reaching views. We supply luxurious linens, fluffy towels and local, organic toiletries. Plus thoughtful touches to support your retreat experience – from yoga mats and swim towels to art supplies and meditation tracks birthed from this land. Our team tread lightly. Our intention is to be helpful but unintrusive – allowing you the spaciousness to feel at home.

Marian Boswall

Marian is best known for her thoughtful and regenerative approach to land design and to life. From flood plain restoration to historic estate masterplans and soulful gardens, to talking about how we can live in harmony with all that is beyond the everyday; she weaves her deep respect for our ecology, history and our future into her work, from the soil, to the gut, to the spirit.

A Fellow of the Landscape Institute, Marian’s projects invest in the land for the very long term. Kindness is a deeply embedded ethos. Marian works with the way the land can heal and connect us on all levels. Her 2019 TedX talk was on how our gardens can care for us and the earth, her book Sustainable Garden was shortlisted for Garden Book of the Year, to be followed by The Kindest Garden – out in February 2025. She has won many awards but is most interested in the long-term legacy of her work.

Marian has a Masters in landscape architecture from Greenwich, in Modern Languages from Oxford and is an agroecology coach and land energy healer. Her first career was management consultancy. She loves sunrises, beavers, wild swimming and remote ski touring.
