OVERVIEW

Gather & Ground is a woodland holiday experience which will take place between the 7th and the 10th August 2020. Guests will be shown to their accommodation on arrival and given some time to settle in before being invited to a welcome circle. 

 

Guests will be given a full schedule of the weekends activities on arrival. Activities will include, but are not limited to, guided foraging walks, campfire cooking workshops, forest bathing, mindfulness workshops and grounding meditation sessions. Guests are invited to, not obliged to attend any and all workshops.

​

We are situated in one of the largest stretches of ancient woodland in the UK and there will be plenty of free time to explore.

 

ACCOMMODATION

 

Accommodation will vary depending on your ticket choice. You will be able to chose between the Cosy Cabin - a rustic wooden cabin that will be shared with other guests, a private yurt, which you will have sole access to and a luxury yurt, which you will have full access to. Each of the accommodation types has its own safari kitchen which you are welcome to use for any additional cooking you would like to do.

CHILDREN

​

At Gather & Ground we strive to provide a balance between a peaceful, relaxing setting and a community holiday that is fun and accessible for all. If you do not have children, we will aim to place you further away from guests with children to ensure your peace and quiet. Children are also not permitted in the dormitory style cabin. 

 

You, the parent or guardian will be responsible for your children during the holiday. There may be some activities which are catered towards children and others which will be catered towards adults and may be inappropriate for children. 

​

To add children to your booking, please contact us for a quote. There will be a small surcharge for additional camp beds in private / luxury yurts.
