Garden Retreats - Willow
Grow your own willow retreat in your garden.
At The Retreat Company we now have our own willow farm growing Chinese Willow, Vimnals and Light Dicks varieties.
We have willow available to "grow your own retreat". Take time out having fun creating children's tunnels, arbors and living willow structures. See the change as it grows. Escape to your sacred willow space at the bottom of your garden.
Most of the willow is best planted between November and March. We also have practice bundles for you to play with, which are available throughout the year. You can either buy practice rods individually or in bundles (variety of willow rods 3ft-6ft - approx 50 rods per bundle).
Design Your Own Custom Retreat
The Rest of Your Life concept is based on you designing your own very personalised retreat. No need to rise at 6am to do yoga, feel obliged to meditate or walk for miles. We facilitate you to retreat -simply and comfortably finding quiet time and space.

Garden Retreat - Yurts
Yurts are the ideal extra space in your garden.
They are made of a wooden frame, which is self supporting.
The cover is cotton canvas or hi-tech acrylic. The canvas is 100% waterproof, rot proofed and fire retardant. The acrylic cover is made from high-tech acrylic fibre, which is stronger and lighter than canvas and does not rot.

Silence. Sshhhh.....a quiet mind. It can be so difficult to obtain in today's world where jobs, errands, demands on our time rarely give us a moment to even enjoy a cup of tea, never mind finding 30 free minutes to do nothing but sit, empty our mind and be silent. Let's say we do manage to squeeze a 30 minute period out of our day to do with whatever we'd like. The negotiation begins: I should do a workout. I should scrub the shower. The dog needs a walk. Should I start dinner? What about the clothes that need to be folded? Oh, gosh, I'm supposed to call the mechanic.
