Our friends often tell us how much they love visiting – the warm hospitality, peaceful atmosphere, and the rolling hills that surround us make it the perfect getaway. So, we’ve decided to extend this experience to a few select guests through our “Escape to the Countryside” wellness weekends.
Each weekend is designed to offer a nurturing, revitalising experience combining Gerry’s professional insight into optimising health and wellbeing, with the calm of the countryside and the comforts of our home. We will welcome only two guests per weekend – either a couple or two friends booking together – so you’ll enjoy our full attention and care.
Weekend Highlights Include:
- Tailored Accommodation: Choose from a double ensuite bedroom with shower and WC, (Bedroom 1) or a cosy double bedroom (Bedroom 2) with a bath and WC next door. Both rooms have king size beds. For two friends booking together, each have a separate bedroom.
- Wellness with Gerry: Each guest will receive two individual 60-minute treatments (on Saturday and Sunday mornings). Plus, enjoy engaging evening talks after dinner with Gerry on Friday and Saturday, focused on lifestyle optimisation, health insights, and interactive discussions.
- Delicious Seasonal Meals: All meals are included. You’ll arrive to a traditional English afternoon tea on Friday, and the following meals throughout the weekend will follow Metabolic Balance principles. Wine will be served with dinner on Friday and Saturday and Sunday lunch (for those who drink).
- Garden-to-Table Experience: Susie grows much of our summer produce. Guests are welcome to help harvest vegetables for meals – a relaxing way to connect with the land.
- Optional Activities: If you’d like to join us in the kitchen, you’re more than welcome. We also have a hot tub, resistance pool, entertainment space, pool table, and croquet. Relax or get active – it’s your weekend.
- Meet the Family: We have two Miniature Schnauzers, Tilly and Maisy – friendly and full of character. They may bark to say hello, but they’re gentle and affectionate. If dogs aren’t your thing, we can usually arrange a little “holiday” for them during your stay.
- Local Charm: White Horse Cottage overlooks fields of horses and is home to our beloved chickens. We’re located in the quaint village of Alton Barnes, Wiltshire.
- Easy Access: Ample parking is available for guests arriving by car. For those coming by train, Pewsey Station is just 10 minutes away, with direct GWR trains from London Paddington (approx. 65 minutes). We’ll be happy to pick you up on Friday and drop you off on Sunday – just let us know your travel plans in advance. If you travel by train, it is advisable to make seat reservations.
