Walker’s Retreats in the Wye Valley
In Partnership with Wye Valley Wellness
Together with Lucy at Wye Valley Wellness, we’ve created weekends that balance movement and stillness. Guided walks ease you into the valley’s landscapes, while massage and mindfulness sessions help you pause, breathe, and renew.
Three Seasons, One Valley — A Year of Walking and Wellness
The Wye Valley is never the same twice. In spring, wildflowers brighten the woodland floor and rivers run fast with new life. Summer brings long days, lush greenery, and warm evenings. Autumn wraps the valley in gold, inviting slower steps and deeper reflection.
Winter at Reddings Retreat — A Time of Rest
While our Walker’s Retreats pause during the winter months — when icy paths and unpredictable weather make walking less comfortable — Reddings Retreat remains open for accommodation bookings all year round.
Winter here is a time of frosted fields, misty mornings, and stillness. Guests are welcome to stay in our cosy, insulated Shepherds Huts or the private Farmhouse suite, enjoying comfort and warmth while the valley rests.
