    Join us for an informative Sourdough Masterclass led by fermenting expert and Primal Health coach Kev Palmer of Fire, Ferment, Smoke. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll dive into the art and science of sourdough, starting from scratch with a wild yeast starter—an essential, living culture that will become the heart of your bread-making journey. Kev will guide you through everything you need to know about cultivating and nurturing this starter for a lifetime of healthier baking. 


Retreat, restore, relax.

Shore Hall is a 16th-century manor house nestled into 22 acres of bucolic English countryside on the border of Essex and Suffolk.

Easily accessible to London and major airports, the tranquility of our gardens, orchards, and wood gives our guests a peaceful retreat like no other.


Retreats

Our individually curated retreats give you the opportunity to take a step back, reflect, relax, and revive. Using the therapeutic benefits of nature, we design programmes to meet the unique needs of individuals and teams.

Wellness in Nature

Simply existing in a natural setting reduces stress levels, inspires lateral thinking, and enables us to focus on our health and wellness. Shore Hall’s 22 acres include gardens designed to inspire tranquil walks, rare tree specimens to admire, long vistas for relaxing with a view, and a large vegetable garden to delight the senses.

Shore Hall's grounds also include an outdoor pool heated with our field of solar panels, a tennis court nestled in a grove, and a serene meditation centre for recuperative body treatments, yoga, and mindfulness practice.

  • “Never before have we had as fruitful a time off-site as we enjoyed at Shore Hall. Attentive but seamlessly unobtrusive service made us feel immediately at home. Lara and team made the whole experience smooth from start to finish and nothing – from food to recommendations for local walks - was too much trouble.”

  • "We loved being able to explore the extensive and beautiful grounds. It was so peaceful and relaxing but we were able to run to the local village, Finchingfield, every day and one evening enjoyed pizza in the local pub. The owner was really welcoming and accommodating."

  • "The Shore Hall retreat gave me the time to sit and reflect and use the tools of some really amazing practitioners. It's been absolutely amazing and I can't recommend these ladies and their programs enough."

  • "We had extremely relaxing time here, the only sound we could hear was the birds (we spotted all sort of species) singing. Overall we had an amazing time and would definitely come back."

We’d love to hear from you!
