Brockwell Wood is only 7 miles away from Newcastle upon Tyne in 26 acres of ancient woodland, offering a tranquil, yet accessible retreat from the hurly-burly of modern life.
Forget five-star hotels, this is an experience beyond luxury, where your ceiling is the vast, open sky and your nightlight is a blanket of stars stretching endlessly above you.
At Out Your Way, you have the choice to sleep in a tent or gently sway in a hammock, surrounded by the calming whispers of nature.
You don’t need more noise, more distractions, or more advice. You need space to think, to breathe, to listen to
yourself.
At
Out Your Way, we offer a deeply immersive weekend retreat designed to help you reconnect with your intuition through nature, movement, and mindful conversation.
Step away from daily
pressures and reset in the heart of nature. Learn to quiet the mind and hear the answers already within you.
Engage in reflective walks, campfire discussions, and grounding activities. Have the option for private coaching or counselling.
Enjoy great food, help yourself to tea and coffee from a kettle that is always on.
This isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level solutions, it’s about learning how to truly listen to yourself.
