Slow Sunday at 42 Acres

Spend a slow Sunday afternoon at 42 Acres and reconnect with nature, with each other, and with the elements.
Come as you are and spend a relaxed Sunday of outdoor vibes. Gather in our forest glade for our signature vegetarian wild dining experience. Your meal will be cooked over an open fire with nourishing ingredients organically-grown and wild-foraged on this land.
Go for a wild swim in the beaver-filled lake, and relax in the wood-fired sauna. Or simply take time and space to rest and restore on land that has been allowed to do the same.
You’re welcome to do as much or as little as you like:
– Roam the 173 acres of our land – home to millions of lives.
– Wild swim in our 7-acre lake or take out our rowboat, SUP board, or canoe. (Please note these activities are at your own risk – there is no lifeguard).
– Look out for beaver, otter, wild boar, hare, deer and a multitude of birds.
– Explore our rewilded spaces; woodland mushroom farm; permaculture garden; edible ornamental walled garden; species re-introduction projects; and secret treehouse. Or just chill and chat.
– Add on a holistic treatment (advance bookings only)
Slow Sundays run from 11am-4pm on the following dates:
– Sun 5 Apr 2026 (Easter Sunday)
– Sun 3 May
– Sun 28 Jun
– Sun 19 Jul
– Sun 30 Aug (Bank holiday weekend)
– Sun 20 Sep
Feedback from Past Slow Sundays:
‘I took some proper time out today. Slow Sundays at 42 Acres Retreat are all about connection – with yourself, with others, and with nature.
Wild swimming, a wood-fired sauna, woodland walks, and incredible food grown on the land itself – all shared around a long table in the woods, with birdsong overhead and an eclectic mix of people from all walks of life. It’s a really well-thought-out setup. Simple, but intentional. The team were welcoming, knowledgeable (beavers, storks, permaculture, mushroom farms, soil-to-gut) and clearly passionate about what they’re building. This was their first Slow Sunday- here’s to many more!’
Lynda, Slow Sunday Guest, June 2025.
‘A group of 6 of us attended 42Acres Slow Sunday and we all throughly enjoyed ourselves. The land is beautiful, with lots of lovely quiet trails to walk and soak it all up. We even spotted storks, buzzards and believe we may have accidentally bumped into a wild boar too. The setting for lunch is fabulous. Really cosy atmosphere and delicious food. Some of us even jumped in the lake for a quick swim which was really refreshing.’
Lucy, Slow Sunday Guest, August 2025
‘Beautiful experience of reconnection to people, place and soul.’
