THE IDEA
We're opening up Ross' family home on the Solway coast for a small group of people who need to properly switch off.
Four days. Good food. Scottish countryside. A mini ceilidh on the last night. And one full day with no phones, which might sound daunting, but we promise it won't be.
This isn't a luxury wellness retreat. It's something a bit more homely!
THE DETAILS
-
Location: Auchencairn, Dumfries & Galloway
-
Group size: Maximum 10 people
-
Accommodation: Ross' family home
-
Everything included: food, accommodation and all activities
-
Transport: Free pickup and drop-off from Lockerbie station
WHAT WE'RE DOING
Coastal cliff walks and cold plunges. A full digital-free day. Creative sessions with no strict agenda. Live bagpipes. And on the last night, a mini Scottish ceilidh!
You'll arrive to a welcome pack that includes a disposable camera, which we figured is a nice way to commit to the digital-free day. It'll also give you something to look forward to after you get home.
Collin House is Ross' family home, sitting above the Solway Firth with views straight across to England, on a clear day.
You'll have the whole house: two sitting rooms, a dining room, kitchen and a barn that doubles as an event space. There are six guest bedrooms, four of them facing the sea.
