Discos, soundscapes and silence.

For people who still love music. Headliners on while you’ve still got some juice and morning raves in the woods. DJs before dinner and folk around the fire. Electronic, ambient and soul drifting across the site as the day changes gear.

Let the kids learn to DJ or introduce them to your favourite records in the listening room. You might even hear what the plants are playing.

Everything tastes better outside.

Wake up to perfect coffee. Roll pasta with the kids. Eat pizza straight from the flames. Or try a ‘naan bomb’ from the curry van. You’ll understand when you get there.

We’re big on local produce and cooking over hot British charcoal. Good wine, cold beer and decent cocktails. And yes, something the kids will actually eat.

Look closer, there's a lot going on.

Wild woodland, water and hundreds of acres. Light doing something different every hour as it moves through the trees. Find out which bird woke you up. Ask what left that print. Learn what you can pick and eat, and what you definitely shouldn’t.

Get your hands in the soil. Grow something. Make something. Build a fire. Tie a knot. Learn from naturalists, birders, makers and people who really know what's what. A few skills we seem to have forgotten along the way.

Settle to your natural level.

Some people swear by ice cold water. Others quite reasonably prefer warmer settings. We’re not here to tell you how to optimise yourself.

You can expect the usual suspects: movement, breathwork, sound, saunas and cold plunges. Plus a few less obvious ways to reconnect with your body. Swing, crawl, stretch. Try something you’ve never done. Return to something you have. Stay for ten minutes or an hour or two. Then go and get a cocktail if you fancy one.

You might be a camper.

We believe that loads of people love camping. Some just don’t know it yet.

Sleep outside for a few nights and funny things start to happen. You go to bed earlier. Coffee tastes better. The kids make friends with your temporary neighbours and you sit in amazement at how long they can be occupied by a piece of rope and some sticks.

Camping is a big part of Blume, so we’re bringing in the big guns to show us how it’s done. We’re talking hammocks, dens, knots, marshmallows…
