It’s mid November and our pool and hot tub are still open, heated and looking great! This is our first year keeping the pool area open during the winter. So if you’re coming to stay in the next few months, please take a winter dip! 🏊‍♀️

We still have a few places left for our final Wellbeing Evening of the year on Friday 6th December 6-9pm.

The evening will start with a meditation workshop in our wellbeing studio with the amazing .bay.wellness 🧘‍♀️

Followed by use of all our spa facilities including sauna, hot tubs, heated pool and ice bath 🔥🧊

We’ll finish the evening with some warm, nourishing food, hopefully in our new woodland banquet hall (if it’s finished and the weather allows!) or in the dining room around the fire 🍲

Old Rectory House will be in full festive mode and looking very Christmassy! 🎄

Tickets are £50 each

These brilliant items are available now in our spa. The perfect Christmas present or as a little gift to yourself! And why not treat yourself to a Bramley spa treatment while you’re here! 💆‍♀️

We met with a true artist today who we’ve commissioned to build a new dining cabin in our woodland sanctuary. Instead of doing a design drawing he built a model instead! This is going to be a brilliant addition to our business to create a weather proof area in the woods for dining at our retreats and wellbeing evenings as well as other functions (maybe even woodland yoga?). It will include a wood burner to create a really cosy space. We will be incorporating branches from our site to give the structure a unique look and connection to its surroundings 🌳 🪵 🛠️

Embarking on a new chapter this week as I start my journey toward becoming a qualified running coach with

The eventual goal is to hold running retreats here at Old Rectory House with a big emphasis on recovery and injury prevention (basically helping people avoid all the stupid mistakes I’ve made!)

The facilities here lend themselves brilliantly to this with our wellbeing studio for yoga and stretching and our woodland sanctuary for cold and heat therapy. Then we have so many incredible running routes on our doorstep both along the coast and in the Quantock Hills. Watch this space 🏃‍♂️

Out for a run this morning along the coast, what a day! After a year out injured with a bad back, I’m so grateful to be running again. I think sometimes you only really appreciate something when it’s taken away and I honestly thought my running days were over. But through a combination of Pilates, yoga, stretching and ice baths it’s finally started to improve. Infact, I’m so onboard with the ice baths that I’ve now started training in thermalism under to become a qualified instructor with the aim of teaching cold and heat therapy along with breathwork on our retreats. What this space! 🧊🔥🏃‍♂️

We’re thrilled to be hosting a private 3 day retreat this weekend to celebrate a 50th Birthday! Sound bath, cacao ceremony, spa treatments and of course plenty of time to enjoy all our spa facilities. We have designed a Middle Eastern inspired menu of falafels, baba ganoush, tabbouleh, hummus and flat breads for a birthday lunch as well as an Indian curry feast on Friday evening. If you’re interested in a retreat here to celebrate a special occasion, get in touch and let us help you design the perfect bespoke package

We are always so grateful when our guests leave us a good review but this one blew our socks off! Thank you so much Adele and Nathan for choosing to spend your honeymoon with us and for taking so much time to write such a thoughtful and heartfelt review! We don’t use any agents or third parties to sell or market any of our stays or experiences, so good reviews and word of mouth are the lifeblood of our business 🙏

It makes us so happy when our guests love their time here 💚

A shepherd’s hut isn’t just for summer. Our huts are all designed to offer the perfect cosy retreat. Each hut has a log burner and who doesn’t love a fire once the nights start to draw in! There are many other little touches to make your stay more comfortable including the en-suite bathroom with hot shower and heated towel rail.

The outdoor space is equally suited to the colder months. All huts have their own fire pits or chimenea and this year we put roofs over all the wood-fired hot tubs (we wouldn’t want you getting rain in your Prosecco!). 🥂

Then of course you can book a session in our woodland sauna and our pool with adjacent hot tub is now heated all year. We have even installed a wood burner in our wellbeing studio to keep you warm during yoga! 🧘‍♂️

I’d you’re looking for an autumn or winter getaway our shepherd huts are a brilliant option 🍂🔥🪵

Welcome to our Woodland Sanctuary, a little piece of heaven here in Somerset! The stunning sauna is nestled amongst the trees with incredible views through the woods and out over the sea. The wood fired hot tub holds up to 10 people so can accommodate groups who want to hire this space. The outdoor shower beneath the canopy makes you feel at one with nature and if your brave, try the cold drench bucket! The woodland kitchen with wood fired grill and pizza oven alongside a banquet area is an integral space for our retreats and perfect for group dining. Then relax into the evening around the firepit for some meditation or storytelling under the stars. We are going to launch some specific spa packages utilising this area, so watch this space 🧖🏻‍♀️🔥🪵 #woodlandsanctuary #sauna #forestbathing #nature #peaceandquiet #woodfiredhottub #woodfiredgrill #pizzaoven #spaday #spa #sparetreat #wellnessretreat #shepherdhuts #luxuryglamping #couplesretreat #romanticgetaway #ecoretreat #greentourism #mentalhealth #yoga #somerset #mindfulness
