The Summer solstice is here 🙌🏼☀️

This occurs at the moment the earth’s tilt toward the sun is at a maximum. Therefore, on the day of the summer solstice, the sun appears at its highest elevation with a noontime position that changes very little for several days before and after the summer solstice 👌🏼

The Orangery is an indoor/outdoor event space overlooking the lake 🍊

This is your hub for larger events and gatherings, celebrations and networking. The huge beams and landscaped setting of this brand new venue make it a wonderful space for performances and ceremonies. The gentle flow of the water and the birdsong backing track set the scene for unwinding 🧘🏼

June is arguably the finest month for finding wildflowers in Norfolk and is certainly among the best times for seeing orchids 🪻

In marshes, dune slacks and fens, common spotted orchids, southern marsh orchids, early marsh orchids, common twayblades and marsh helleborines are all in bloom now. In our wooded areas, look for the much-rarer greater butterfly orchid and in dry chalky grasslands look for pyramidal and bee orchids. Also in grasslands in June you can expect to find common blue butterflies and newly-emerged six-spot burnet moths dancing amongst the flowers 🦋

Did you know…? 🤔

Our beautiful chalk stream here at West Lexham is incredibly special for a number of reasons and actually there are thought to be just 140 chalk streams in the world! 👀❤️ This beautiful stretch of water runs as part of the River Nar & eventually joins the estuary at Kings Lynn.

This allows beautiful sea trout, eels and other wonderful creatures to navigate the waters to a safe space to breed & has been restored here at West Lexham by the EU and even Coca-Cola lead funding to help preserve this wonderfully unique (and thoroughly important) eco-system 🌿

Playing host to a variety of rare British species, such as freshwater mussels, otters, kingfishers & number of important vertebrates, who all benefit from the natural chalk springs this feed the stream all year round. So, if you’re planning a visit to West Lexham soon, be certain to spend some time down by the stream and take in a variety of spectacular species 🌳

It's Mental Health Awareness Week 🧘🏽‍♀️

As a retreat space with a focus on wellness and wellbeing, mental health is of course an incredibly prevalent topic here. Understanding how to look after one's mind & body is of paramount importance and even the simplest of daily tasks can help to support you and promote self care. Taking a moment to relax & unwind (in whatever form you find most comfortable) can be a simple yet incredibly powerful tool and engaging in daily yoga or meditation is said to have phenomenal soothing effects on the mind and body alike. So if nothing else, this week, we urge you to take more 'you' time... to do less of whatever causes you stress and take a few ''selfish'' moments to rejuvinate, recoup and when needed recover 🧘🏻‍♀️
