inFreedom Retreat Days
inFreedom retreat is centred in a cottage just outside Bristol. All of the images on this website are from the grounds
Day Retreat
Do your day your way. Take advantage of check-ins with your host or run your own day - as you wish.
Facilities
The cottage is your home from home.
All the pictures on this website are from the 20 acres of woods and farm land that you can explore.
Lounge
The lounge is yours for the day, complete with log burner, table, sofas and a window seat overlooking the pond.
Kitchen
The kitchen is home to bottomless coffee and tea, snacks and lunch.
Garden
On a dry day, take advantage of the view by sitting out on the picnic bench to watch the world go by or the heron find lunch.
Woods
The woods are open to you. Take a stroll around, look for deer, chat with the horses, sit and soak in the nature.
Longer Walks
The grounds are criss-crossed by public footpaths which take you, for example, to a nature reserve one way or a pub another.
Office Space
If you need to get some work done you have access to a desk overlooking the pond. There's a screen, apple keyboard and mouse too.
