Solo traveller walking through Somerset countryside

Solo escape

Just You.

Entirely yours.

Step away from the noise. Choose your workshops, set your own pace, and come home with something you made — and something you found.

A retreat built around you, not a group

The Just You package is for the solo traveller who wants more than a break. You'll have your own space, your own workshop choices, and the freedom to spend your days exactly as you please — whether that's deep in the forge, foraging the hedgerows, or simply sitting in the garden with a cup of tea.

"I came on my own not knowing what to expect. I left with a silver ring I made myself, a head full of quiet, and a plan to come back."
