EVERYTHING YOUR RETREAT NEEDS, IN ONE PLACE

Sefton Place has been designed to make immersive residential retreats easier to create. Reeds provides a flexible indoor space for movement, teaching, creativity and stillness, alongside a dedicated kitchen for food preparation, nutrition sessions, cookery workshops and shared dining. The outdoor yoga and stargazing deck and nature-rich grounds open up even more possibilities. Add Sussex House and our rooms and suites for beautiful on-site accommodation and private downtime, with exclusive-use options allowing your group to truly settle in. All of this comes together in the South Downs countryside, just outside Arundel and within easy reach of London.

SPACES FOR YOUR RETREAT

ROOM TO MOVE, CREATE & CONNECT

From the calm of Reeds and the outdoor yoga deck to shared dining spaces, private accommodation and quiet corners of the grounds, Sefton Place gives your retreat room to flow between movement, creativity, connection, nourishment and rest.

Everything you need to host

BUILT AROUND YOUR RETREAT

From movement and workshops to nutrition, shared meals and residential stays, Sefton Place gives you the spaces and practical facilities to build your programme your way. Use what you need, configure it around your format and create anything from a focused day retreat to a fully exclusive multi-day experience.

PRACTICE, TEACH & CREATE

Reeds is a bright, flexible and climate-controlled studio designed to adapt as your programme moves between movement, teaching, creativity and group work.

TAKE YOUR RETREAT OUTDOORS

Extend sessions beyond four walls with spaces that allow guests to practise, pause and reconnect with the landscape around them.

NOURISH YOUR GROUP

A dedicated events kitchen gives you genuine flexibility around food, whether nutrition is simply supporting the retreat or forms part of the programme itself.

CONFIGURE IT YOUR WAY

Your retreat does not need to fit a fixed room layout. Tables, seating and technology can be arranged around different sessions and changed as the programme evolves.

STAY, SCALE & MAKE IT YOURS

Turn a day retreat into a complete residential experience by adding exactly the accommodation and privacy your group needs.
