42 Acres

‘I can’t explain enough how peaceful and beautiful this place is. It’s not just the sleepy Somerset location, or the exquisitely crafted buildings. It’s not slipping into an oasis of a lake for a swim, or even wandering through the wild, yet cleverly planted gardens. It is the people who work here – gentle, passionate, kind and with an overriding sense of doing the right thing for nature and for your wellbeing. And hey, the cake isn’t bad too!’
