Description

Just 45 minutes north of London, Shore Hall is a 16th-century manor house set within 22 acres of idyllic English countryside. A peaceful haven with modern luxuries, it’s the perfect backdrop for restorative, creative, or wellness-focused retreats.

Retreat hosts can choose between three residences - the South Wing, North Wing and The Writers' Cottage - available separately for more intimate gatherings or together to accommodate up to 16 guests (one person per bed) or 22 (shared beds). Both feature thoughtfully designed interiors, modern comforts, and a refined sense of tranquillity.

The grounds offer an inspiring range of spaces for practice, rest, and reconnection. Highlights include: a solar-heated outdoor pool, secluded tennis court, lawns, orchards, gardens and woodland walks, a tranquil treatment space for bodywork and mindfulness sessions.
