We check the usual frankly silly number of local websites, then look for events that feel rainy-day friendly: cinemas, theatres, talks, workshops, galleries, concerts, cosy venues, and anything less likely to involve standing in a muddy field making brave weather noises.

7Join Chay for a 90-minute immersive sound experience designed to help you slow down, switch off and reconnect. Blending traditional sound therapy instruments with ambient music and atmospheric soundscapes, Hear Together Now offers a unique listening experience that sits somewhere between a sound bath, a live performance and a guided meditation. The session begins with a gentle introduction and guided relaxation, allowing you to settle comfortably into the space. From there, you'll be taken on an extended sonic journey, where layers of ambient music, drone flute, singing bowls, drums, chimes and other instruments weave together to create a rich and restorative listening experience. As the sound unfolds, you'll be invited to simply rest, breathe and listen. The carefully crafted journey is designed to encourage deep relaxation, helping to calm the nervous system, slow the breath and create space away from the demands of everyday life. Whether you're looking to relax, recharge or simply enjoy a moment of stillness, this is an opportunity to pause and be fully present.
8A nourishing half-day immersion in nature, breath, and restoration. If you’ve been longing for a moment to pause, this is your invitation. Guided by wellness expert Kelly Hopkinson, this retreat weaves together mindful yoga, meditation, forest bathing, and a spa immersion by our wild swimming lake. In just a few hours, you’ll feel lighter, calmer, and more deeply connected to yourself and nature. Choose from 3 session times: 9:00am 11:30am 2:00pm
