Retreats at Little Oakhurst
A private retreat venue in the heart of the Ribble Valley, designed for small groups who want to slow down, reconnect and enjoy their own peaceful corner of nature. Whether you are hosting a wellbeing retreat, a creative workshop, a business mastermind or simply gathering your favourite people, Little Oakhurst gives you the privacy, space and tranquillity to create something truly special.
You can book individual huts or take over the whole site for complete exclusivity. With views over Pendle Hill, private wood fired hot tubs and accommodation crafted by hand on the farm, this is a place where people arrive and instantly breathe out.
Perfect for anyone looking for glamping retreats in Lancashire.
Your Retreat, Your Way
Every retreat is different. Some need quiet mornings and gentle walks on the Tolkien Trail. Some need a cosy indoor space for workshops or journalling sessions. Others need space outdoors for breathwork circles, meditation, yoga or creative activities.
Little Oakhurst works beautifully for any host who wants:
-
A private setting away from distractions
-
Unique and comfortable accommodation
-
sustainable and ethical venue
-
A place that instantly feels welcoming and warm
Whether you are planning a wellbeing retreat, yoga day, coaching intensive, creative escape, photography weekend or a celebration retreat with friends, the site adapts to what you need. It’s an ideal countryside setting for Lancashire retreat hosts who want something peaceful and personal.
Accommodation for up to 10 Guests
The site sleeps up to ten people across five unique spaces, giving you flexibility for couples, friends or solo travellers. Each space has its own story, its own character and its own hot tub.

Every hut and yurt has a private bathroom, an outdoor seating area and a wood fired hot tub. Everything has been built here on the farm using recycled and reclaimed materials, creating a cosy, homely feel that retreat guests love.
Space for Connection and Calm
Your guests will have room to rest, reflect and reconnect. The site is set on a gentle hillside with views stretching across the Ribble Valley. Retreat hosts often use:
-
The glamping field for morning movement
-
Outdoor seating areas for breathwork, meditation or journalling
-
Individual hot tubs for evening wind downs
-
Local woodland and riverside paths for slow, mindful walks
-
Fire pits for cosy evenings and shared conversations
-
Our new woodland area, created especially for forest bathing and private hire, offering a peaceful, nature-immersive space for quiet sessions or group activities
There is no formal indoor studio space, which gives your retreat a very grounded and natural feel. Most hosts design their schedule around the land, letting nature lead the pace.
Why Hosts Choose Little Oakhurst
Retreat leaders tell us they choose Little Oakhurst because it feels personal, peaceful and real. The handmade huts, the family run farm and the quiet hillside make it easy to switch off from everyday life.
From the views over Pendle Hill to the dark sky status at night, everything here encourages people to slow down, breathe deeply and enjoy being outdoors. You will also have direct contact with Joanne throughout your stay, so you will always feel supported and looked after.
