The cookery tent
BigRetreaters can look forward to being entertained (and fed) with mouth-watering concoctions in the cookery tent this year.
To balance out some of the ‘naughty-but-nice-go-on-just-one-more’ cookery, we also have nutrition talks and juicing workshops where you’ll get all the motivation and know-how you need to kick start a mini health and wellbeing revolution in your own kitchen! We even get the kids involved (yes, it IS possible…).
Oh yes, and there are Gin Workshops. Do we need to mention them? We do? OK, well our Big Retreaters couldn’t get enough of these classes last year so they’re back, larger than ever (the classes). They’re extremely popular, so get there on the double. You know where the gin goes, but at the Big Retreat you can also learn about where it comes from, the different types and how to make the perfect G&T. (Gin Workshops are included in the ticket price. All products used are extensively tested for quality control purposes.)

And we are big, no, VERY BIG on local food and drink, and there was a lot of love for the food and drink on site at the Big Retreat this year... Look out for The famous Little Peppercorn, Mr Croquewich, Renegade Vegan Cafe, Syrian Delights, Cwlbox's Seafood Specials, Ridiculously Rich Cakes by Alana Spencer, amazing Wood Fired Pizzas, Cowpots Ice Cream and the lovely Vegan Ice Green, a rich varied and delicious range along the Street Food Market in the Rose Garden.
A well stocked pop-up bar with ales and ciders to refresh our thirsty Retreaters along side a craft Gin Bar - serving the best of Gins and non-alcoholic alternatives for those choosing not to drink alcohol - all are welcome!
