Ramshorn Estate
Retreat among the Staffordshire woodlands
Thirty acres of protected woodland form the backdrop to retreats at Beresford Lodge, a spacious property in the Staffordshire Moorlands near Ramshorn. The setting gives visitors a place to step away from everyday routines and spend time among the trees, with the lodge serving as the retreat’s home base. Ramshorn Estate is a holiday-home venue rather than a center with a stated, year-round meditation tradition, so the experience depends on the particular retreat being held there. That also means the schedule, teaching style and arrangements can vary from one visit to another. The grounds and lodge are the clearest constants: a substantial woodland landscape and a roomy shared retreat setting. Check the details for your chosen event before booking, especially its daily program, meals and accommodation arrangements.
