Re-Root at Lime Wood
Just as Lime Wood is enveloped by and rooted in ancient forest, our weary souls and senses are (like it or not) rooted in nature. Humans are just not designed to function at full pelt, 24/7. Our minds and bodies pay the price.
We’ve listened to what our guests are looking for: lightly structured chill time and making the most of our calm, healing surroundings while, crucially, having some creative fun. So here’s a series of re-rooting retreats, events and workshops that tap into the remedial powers of the English countryside.
Saturday 10th October | Saturday 28th November
Join Musician and Gong Master Rich Hale (ex-front man for chill-out band Kinobe) and our resident Breathwork Facilitator, Tracey Howes, as they collaborate for a deep dive into breath and sound.
Thursday 15th October | Thursday 26th November
Join our resident Forager Sammie Longhorn for seasonal foraging, Meet at Herb House to head into the forest for a one-hour foraging walk and head back to our glasshouse for refreshments and a Q&A with Sammie.
Sunday 18th October
Join us at Herb House with Tracey Howes for a restorative wellness session combining breathwork, timed sauna exposure, and cold plunges, guided by the latest scientific insights. Includes: tea or coffee on arrival, the workshop, and 2 hours’ use of the spa following the session.
Wednesday 21st October
Join Lindsey from Dorset Forest Bathing for a restorative woodland walk and experience the beauty of the forest as autumn settles in. Slow down, reconnect with nature and discover the rich seasonal colours, vibrant fungi and wildlife that emerge as daylight fades, before returning to Raw & Cured for light refreshments and reflection.
Wednesday 21st October | Wednesday 11th November
Join us each month at Lime Wood for a relaxed evening of good food and even better conversation, as we welcome some of the most inspiring food authors to the New Forest for our Book Club series.
Angela has invited a seriously good line up of her foodie friends to join us: Tom Parker Bowles, Honey & Co’s Itamar Srulovich and Sarit Packer, and the inimitable Rick Stein. Tickets are selling fast... don't get left on the shelf!
Thursday 5th November
Celebrate 20 years of Sugrue South Downs with a relaxed evening of Italian-inspired dining and exceptional English wines. Winemakers Dermot and Ana Sugrue will join us at Lime Wood to share new releases, standout vintages and the stories behind two decades of winemaking.
'Hosted' is an intimate kitchen table supper in the HH&Co Backstage Kitchen. Choose an evening hosted by Luke, or select dates where Angela joins him for something truly special. Each date is booked exclusively for one private group of up to ten guests, enjoying a relaxed four-course, Italian-inspired feast. Think less restaurant and more being welcomed into a great friend’s home for supper!
Host the Roast is an intimate private dining experience in our Backstage Kitchen, hosted by HH&Co legend, Iain.
Whether you're planning a work celebration, a festive gathering with friends or bringing the family together before Christmas, you'll enjoy an evening centred around great food, good company and plenty of festive spirit. As Iain prepares your four-course feast before your eyes, all that's left to do is settle in, pour another glass and enjoy the occasion.
