Our Story
The evolution of FALLOW Retreats
FALLOW Retreats began with a desire to live differently.
In 2020, we left London in search of a slower, more grounded way of life. What followed was a shift in everything that mattered - how we spent our time, how we connected, and what we wanted for our growing family. Now, with three young boys and a life rooted in Somerset, we’ve found ourselves increasingly drawn to nature, to the seasons, and to a deeper sense of presence in everyday life.
Over time, a shared dream began to take shape - to find a piece of land where we could raise our family, live more connected lives, and create something meaningful to share with others.
When we discovered The Vobster Inn pub and its surrounding land, set upon 4 acres with sweeping views from the hill, abundant wildlife, and extraordinary sunsets, we instantly felt its potential.
Collaboration is at the heart of what we’re creating. We’re proud to work alongside local makers and independent businesses - celebrating craftsmanship, supporting the local community, and bringing a strong sense of place into every detail of the experience.
Looking ahead, we're dreaming up more - wood-fired saunas, a small deli and store, foraging experiences, seasonal gatherings, and spaces designed to bring people together in meaningful ways. For now though, FALLOW Retreats is a work in progress, but that’s part of its beauty. In a world that often celebrates only the finished product, we’re embracing the process - the learning, the effort, the evolution. Everything here is being built with imagination, intention, care, joy and a deep respect for the land.
This is a place to come as you are. To slow down, to breathe, and to reconnect - with nature, with others, and with yourself.
