The Gathering at Hill Farm

Friday 23 - Sunday 25 October 2026

The Gathering at Hill Farm

You are invited to The Gathering at Hill Farm, led by Hayley of Forest Retreats and Sam of Her Peaceful Place.

During this magical women-only retreat, you will be completely immersed in nature at our stunning eco retreat centre overlooking the Wye Valley.

It promises to be a weekend of witchy loveliness, including meditation and movement, restorative yoga, reiki and a sacred sound circle. There will also be a ‘connecting to spirit’ workshop, a woodland walk to gather items for our alter, nourishing seasonal food and utter bliss and relaxation in a wood fired hot tub and sauna.

The Gathering will be held close to Samhain, when the veil thins between the physical and spiritual realms.

We will take time as a sisterhood to connect with ourselves and our spirit, to learn new rituals, raise our vibration, honour our ancestors and raise our collective vibrational power.

Just returned from the most amazing retreat in Spain with Hayley and the team. It couldn’t have been more wonderful, yoga practice morning and evening, fantastic food and a fab villa with everything you could wish for including super relaxing treatments. I just wish I was still there soaking up the rays and chillin 😎

My visit to Hill Farm couldn’t have come at a better time. I arrived feeling slightly frazzled and very tired and left feeling calm and energised to continue doing my job and caring for my family AND myself. Highly recommended!

Peaceful retreat. We took a Shinrin Yoku experience. Driving up through the countryside was a treat in itself, upon arriving we were met by Tom who was immediately friendly and relaxed. Our party was just the two of us and our old dog, we spent hours immersed in the forest enjoying our surroundings led by Tom to quietly connect with nature, our day was dry and sunny but would have been equally as enjoyable in the rain. We came away thoroughly relaxed. Friends asked us why were we paying for a walk in the woods when this can be done for free, to them I say you can walk for free, but this wasn't a walk in the woods it was a Shinrin Yoku experience with a guide knowledgeable and insightful, worth every penny.

I have just come away from a weekend retreat and it was absolutely brilliant. Hayley and Tom are fantastic hosts and couldn’t do enough for us. Hayley’s combination of Yin and Yang yoga, Tom’s forest bathing, and nourishing, tasty veggie food, the eco spa and yurt created the perfect blend of relaxation and fun throughout the weekend. The gong bath and massage were also wonderful additions. Thanks so much!

I have just come back from a yoga and well-being retreat and it was fantastic. The farm is idyllic, and only about 45 minutes from Bristol on a good run. Hayley is a wonderful yoga teacher, technically skilled but very kind and helpful, while Tom's Forest Bathing sessions are a really enlightening experience. The food is fantastic too, and they are the perfect hosts. The only bad thing about the retreat was having to leave on the Sunday!

Wonderful experience’s at both the farm and abroad on Hayley’s and Toms Retreats. Their attention to detail and much needed rest bite from the outside world is amazing. Can’t recommend enough to treat yourself. Thank you both for all your hard work creating a safe haven for everyone to enjoy.
