The Vibe

A calm, grounding three‑night escape designed to help you slow down, reset, and reconnect. Expect gentle nature immersion, restorative movement, nourishing food, warm spaces, and a small, supportive group. Quiet mornings, steady breath, and the beauty of Broughton Sanctuary holding you throughout.

Accommodation

Your retreat stay is shared across two beautifully designed homes on the Broughton Sanctuary estate , Barnhouse and Oxenclose , each offering comfort, character and a deep sense of calm.

Barnhouse

A spacious, light‑filled barn conversion with sweeping views across the estate. Barnhouse blends rustic charm with contemporary design, offering generous communal spaces, cosy corners for unwinding, and beautifully finished bedrooms. It’s a warm, grounding environment that immediately invites you to slow down.

Oxenclose

A newly renovated, modern farmhouse with a serene, minimalist feel. Oxenclose combines clean, elegant interiors with natural textures and thoughtful details, creating a peaceful space ideal for rest and reflection. Its open living areas and tranquil bedrooms make it a perfect complement to the retreat’s restorative focus.

Together, these two homes provide a unique blend of rustic character and modern comfort, giving you space to relax, reset and reconnect with nature throughout your stay.

Activities

Across the retreat you’ll move through a restorative blend of nature‑based, embodied and reflective practices — all designed to regulate the nervous system, deepen your connection with the natural world and rebuild resilience from the inside out. The programme is spacious, gently guided and intentionally paced, giving you time to breathe, explore and simply be.

Forest Bathing Guided sensory immersion in the woodland, helping you slow down, tune in and experience the calming, restorative effects of nature.

Nature & Reflective Journaling Thoughtfully guided journaling sessions that support clarity, self‑reflection and deeper integration of your retreat experience.

Yoga Outdoors Gentle, grounding yoga sessions held in the fresh air, blending mindful movement and breathwork to release tension and restore balance.

Wild Swimming / Cold‑Water Therapy Invigorating, confidence‑building cold‑water immersion in a safe, supportive environment, a powerful practice for resilience and mental clarity.

Sophrology Outdoors Breathwork, visualisation and mindful body awareness practices delivered in nature, helping you reconnect with calm, presence and inner steadiness.

Nature Immersion Sessions Unhurried time in the landscape, guided invitations to explore your senses, and opportunities to reconnect with the rhythms of the natural world.

Free Time Space to rest, wander, journal, nap, read or simply enjoy the stillness of the estate, an essential part of the retreat’s restorative arc.

Spa Time Access to the Broughton Sanctuary wellness facilities, offering warmth, relaxation and deep physical unwinding.

Walks & Gentle Exploration Walks through the estate’s woodlands, fields and ancient sites, inviting movement, curiosity and connection.

And More (TBC) Additional sessions and experiences will be added as we finalise the programme, ensuring a rich, balanced and nourishing retreat journey.
