Enjoy the beautiful Cotswolds
In between classes and treatments there will be plenty of time to relax in front of the fire or explore the 6 acres of private land and beautiful surrounding countryside. Our retreat venue, Holycombe, is set in a verdant wooded valley on the edge of a Cotswold village. It’s built in the grounds of a Norman Castle, and has a water-filled moat - a natural stream rises from a holy well in the nearby wood, passes though the grounds and down a waterfall. Across a meadow is the ancient Whichford wood with many rare species of trees and plants and wildlife abounds.
