What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
The focus is on the state of the mind just as much as that of the body…
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set in rural Snapper, the grounds sit fifteen minutes from the rugged trails of Exmoor National Park and Atlantic beaches.
The rooms
Converted farm buildings and eco-cabins feature wood-clad walls, timber framing, limestone wet rooms, and wood-burning fireplaces facing peaceful countryside.
Movement and massage
Outdoor training sessions on the lawn lead into daily restorative massages inside rustic, stone-walled treatment rooms.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Chefs prepare plant-forward, pescatarian meals free from gluten, dairy, and refined sugar, served with fresh cold-pressed juices.
How it began
Founded in 2010 by yoga teacher Mercedes Sieff and her surfer husband Simon, the former farm prioritizes mental clarity over deprivation.
