27 of us made ourselves at home in the old Post Office and it was chaotic in the best way possible. We bbq-ed, went for walks along the river, made pizzas, played cricket in the garden, swam for hours in the pool, read stories, and it really was just so wholesome.

A gorgeous few days away to move, breathe & reset, surrounded by the best people.

Lauren, 2023

We lucked out with the weather, it was finally hot hot which meant we had the doors wide open all weekend, ate in the courtyard, bbq-ed and the pool was in constant use. The kind of weekend that goes by in an instant but leave you a bit teary eyed when it’s over

Jessie, 2025

Loved it so much!

Martin Bates, 2024

“The outdoor space was my favourite - a long concrete table that doubled as the perfect dinner party table (and later, dance floor), right next to a pizza oven and a Braii which made socialising and cooking at the same time very easy. We were surrounded by fields, with walks in every direction. We also managed to find two wild swimming spots — ideal for both pre-drinks and hangover cures.”
