About The Retreat
Set in The Dower House on the Badminton Estate this experience is themed around three pillars; Movement, Nature and Connection: from morning runs, dynamic and restorative yoga, a connecting walk through Badminton Deer Park, a heart opening Cacao Ceremony, Wild Foraging with an eccentric luddite, and delicious plant based food prepared by a talented professional chef; some produce of which is sourced by onsite organic market garden. We believe, if everyone was in a better mental state, with their basic need of connection satisfied; then people have the calm headspace to connect deeper, maximize opportunities, and live more healthful, joyful and societally conscious lives.
