Peace and quiet

Guests say this home is in a quiet area.
Escape to your own private woodland hideaway in the Essex countryside.

At the heart of the retreat is our unique geodesic zome, tucked beneath the trees and surrounded by a space designed for switching off, slowing down and spending proper time together.

Whether it’s a romantic escape, a family adventure or a few nights away with friends, this is glamping with a difference, totally private, off-grid and a little bit magical...

The space
The retreat is a private, off-grid woodland glamping site with the following facilities for your stay.

Alfresco Cooking Shack:
A covered outdoor cooking area equipped with plates, cutlery, cooking utensils and the basic equipment needed to prepare and serve meals.

Wood-Fired Hot Tub: [OPTIONAL EXTRA]
The hot tub is heated using a dedicated wood-burning stove. Firewood and operating instructions are provided.

Firepit Area
A dedicated firepit and seating area beneath the trees. Blankets are provided for cooler evenings.

Outdoor Cinema [OPTIONAL EXTRA]
An outdoor cinema area is available on request for an additional charge. As the cinema is outdoors, its use is weather dependent.

Children's Play Area
The site includes a children's play area with a trampoline, mud kitchen and play shop.

Off-Grid Facilities

Solar Power
The retreat is fully off-grid. Electricity is generated by solar panels and stored in batteries for use during the evening. As power is limited, the site is designed around low-energy use rather than conventional mains electricity.

Woodland Shower
A private woodland shower room is provided on site.

Composting Toilet
The retreat uses a waterless composting toilet rather than a conventional flushing toilet. Full instructions are provided for guests.


Important Information
Please bring your own drinking water, as there is no mains drinking-water supply at the retreat.

We also ask guests to take their rubbish with them when they leave.

Guest access
Come and explore, the place is exclusively yours for the duration at your stay!

Other things to note
Please take your rubbish home with you and dispose of it responsibly.
