42 Acres is a wellbeing retreat centre, nature reserve, and pioneering agri-wilding site in rural Somerset set in 173 Acres of rewilded landscapes, ancient woodland, and a 7-acre lake. Our vision is to live in harmony with self, nature, and others. We're exploring ways to take care of and live in conversation with our sacred world. Our experiences are an invitation to ask deep questions, to find meaning, to feel alive, revived, and inspired. Ultimately they are gatherings of reconnection and remembering.
