Tucked away in rural Somerset countryside near Frome, 42 Acres is a wellbeing retreat centre, nature reserve and regenerative estate that actually spans 173 acres of wild spaces, ancient woodlands and a seven-acre lake. Founded in 2015 by siblings Lara and Seth Tabatznik, it was created as a space for healing and connection with nature. While the site has hosted private retreats for years, the newly-introduced Wild Weekends are a series of two-day naturebased retreats curated by the team at 42Acres and held at The Hermitage.

Guests can choose from several experiences: Rewild, which focuses on their immersive nature restoration projects; Renourish, highlighting medicinal foods that are wild-tended and organically grown on the land; and Restore, a self-care spa retreat rooted in nature that aims to rejuvenate both the mind and body.
