Rosemerrynwood
A historic house for your own retreat rhythm
Set in a former artist’s residence dating from the turn of the twentieth century, Rosemerrynwood is a six-bedroom house available to rent for self-catering stays. It sleeps 12 to 14, making it a practical option for family get-togethers, celebrations or a small group wanting to make its own retreat rhythm. Rather than a retreat with a published programme, the appeal here is the freedom of having a whole house as a base: guests can plan shared meals, quiet time and any meditation or other activities themselves. The self-catering format suits groups who value privacy and independence, though anyone hoping for guided practice should check arrangements with the host before booking. It is a distinctive alternative to a staffed retreat venue, with the building’s former artistic life giving the stay a little character beyond an ordinary holiday rental.
