Retreat address: Enwild Retreat, Willowbrook Farm, Hampton Gay, Kidlington OX5 2QQ

Coming by car?

From London (90-120 minutes depending on where in London you’re traveling from):

Willowbrook Farm is only 10 minutes from the motorway so it’s really accessible.

M40 exit Junction 9. Take the first left at the exit roundabout on to the A34 towards Kidlington.  

Take the second left exit and then left again towards Bletchingdon. In Bletchingdon take the left turn signposted Hampton Poyle. Once Bletchingdon is behind you take the small right turn signposted Hampton Gay. If you get to Hampton Poyle turn back you’ve missed the turn!

Follow the single track road until you see Willowbrook Farm on your right hand side.

Glamping guests - please temporarily park in the car park opposite Willowbrook Farm cafe and let them know you have arrived. They will provide you with the gate code to access the camping field. You will then be directed by farm staff to the campsite parking which is further down the road on the right hand side.

Retreat guests - please park in the car park opposite the Willowbrook Farm cafe and then on foot follow the enwild signs to the retreat field. We can of course help you manage your luggage.

Coming by train from London?

Marylebone Station to Bicester North Station:

The fast train takes 50 minutes and costs £25 - £37. Do book early to get the lower price.

If you are a retreat guest coming for the 3-day retreat we offer a complimentary shuttle service to the farm so do let us know your travel plans ahead of time so we can get an idea of how many people require this.

You will be staying in Luxury Bell Tent accommodation with beds that have mattresses, duvets, 2 pillows each and all the bedding will be provided for you. We offer 2 sizes of bell tents for the retreats and also for the glamping in the campsite. The smaller 4 metre tent accommodates one double bed for couples. 2 single beds also fit in comfortably if you are with a friend. The larger 5 metre bell tent provides more space and can accommodate families of 4 with a configuration of single or double beds. If you have any allergies please do let us know and we will try to accommodate your requirements.

Glamping guests visiting the farm, your bell tent will be in the glamping area of the camping field ready to self check in.

Retreat guests on the 3-day nature & wellness retreat, your bell tent will be in the retreat field.

Take a look at the map below to familiarise yourself with the layout.

There is no mains power inside the bell tents. We encourage you to see this as an opportunity to experience a digital detox but ultimately that is of course your own decision. If you do need to recharge your devices we recommend bringing a fully charged power bank. All the bell tents have exterior solar powered fairy lights for your safety at night. They also have battery operated pole lights in warm white for ambient room lighting. The bedside table has a rechargeable usb reading light with 2 settings, one bright for reading and one dimmed.

We do recommend bringing a torch or head torch for navigating to the toilets at night.

All meals will be complimentary and include breakfast, lunch and dinner. The first night, dinner will be provided by Willowbrook Farm in the cafe giving you an opportunity to meet the family living on the farm. On day 2 and 3 all meals will be homemade by our wonderful retreat chef, Sarah. Ingredients will be sourced locally, where possible, supporting small scale food producers in the local area. Meals will be healthy and primarily vegetarian except some meat options from the farm on the first night for non-vegetarians. Please let us know of any dietary requirements, allergies, or specific preferences at the time of booking. Please see the retreat page for further information about menus.

The farm has compost toilets and solar showers reflecting the ethos of sustainability at the farm. These facilities are provided by Willowbrook Farm not Enwild. Towels are provided upon request at the time of booking.

Please note Enwild and Willowbrook are 2 separate businesses.

Glamping guests visiting the farm, you will need to book and pay for your pitch directly with Willowbrook Farm as this is not included in your glamping bell tent charge. Please use this link https://willowbrookfarm.co.uk/product-page/camping-pitch/.

Currently retreat guests share the solar showers with camping guests and they are situated a 4 minute walk away in the public camping field.

The 44-hour reset retreat feels grounding and transformative, with a welcoming atmosphere for beginners, and a balance of group classes and free time in nature.
