A stunning location in the heart of the Wessex Countryside but within easy access of London (just 2hrs west by rail or road).

The Cottages, the Studios and a large Seminar room are available to hire individually or book the whole site to have a very private retreat in a 'breathtaking' setting. We can accommodate workshops for around 50 guests with accommodation both on site (2 self-catering cottages) and in the surrounding villages (mainly B & B). The village, Stoke Trister, is just 2 minutes on foot. Alternatively we can accommodate 23 guests all on site. There is plenty of flexibility so please do be in touch. Full board is also available on request.
