away days
Our away days are for founders, directors and teams to step away from the everyday to reconnect with what matters and focus on what’s next. We create away days that inspire the mind, enrich the soul and captivate the imagination. Escape the ordinary with us.
Here’s an insight into the experiences we’re running this Spring.

time together on the coast.
This one is for the teams who feel the need to get together to reconnect, regroup and refocus on whats next. Get your team out on the coast and enjoy a facilitated walk, talk and regroup. We’ll start the day with breakfast and ethical coffee served out of the back of a Landrover Defender. We’re thrilled to be partnering with Alison and Amy, the Co-founders behind the beautiful brand Wavi Coffee. Those who want to make the most of their day together can choose to extend their day with additional facilitation, some training, maybe a spot of breath work and a sea dip before we round up your away day together.
We design all the details of your day to suit your teams needs and priorities. This away day is a beautiful blend of delicious coffee and a touch of wellbeing on the South West coast. A great way to celebrate a team win, kick start a new project or just have an off grid meeting to remember. Wavi Coffee can also be booked as part of a product shoot or company event, our brand photographers are on hand to capture your day in the wilds of nature.

The joy of working in collaboration with Wavi Coffee means we can take our away days to where you want to be. We love a meeting on the coast, but we also meet in the forests, beside lakes and on the beach. We bring your team to places other people don’t usually get to have meetings.

You’ll be in the depths of nature, fully caffeinated and spirits lifted. Soothed by your warm drink and full tummy from your breakfast bowl or pastry, we’ll bring together your whole day together. Each day is curated to your teams needs, but we love to include a facilitated walk and talk, so you can feel fully enriched by being together.
-
Our guided facilitation will open doors to new thoughts, ideas, opportunities for you for you and your team. Whatever you want to get out of your day, we can plan and organise it for you. From your food, the location, all handpicked, sourced and planned so all you and your team have to do is turn up.

Our coffee and coastal walks have been tried, tested and fully experienced ready for your day. We have the routes, the pubs, the local accommodation that you can use to get the most out of your time together on the coast.
Please contact us so we can fill you in on the possibilities and discuss your requirements.

Our Coastal Walks are usually along the coast of Dorset and East Devon, but we’re happy to bring Wavi Coffee to you, all ideas, events and places are up for consideration. The joy and the huge perk of having a land rover that serves coffee, means we can go right into nature, utilise the 4×4 and bring the experience to you.

A gathering for the people behind the brands & organisations making an impact.

“It’s the encounters that we have with others that transform us.”

a day to come together.
We’re excited to be partnering with 42 Acres this year who are hosting our Encounters Retreat Days. We’re bringing together the people behind the brands, agencies and organisations that are leading the way in their field and shaping the future of their industry sector.
Who are the Encounters for?
The encounters retreats are days dedicated to the visionaries behind the brands and organisations that are shaping products, services, and experiences that truly nourish, nurture, educate, and transform.
What are Encounters?
Encounters are small and intimate gatherings, a retreat out into nature, where there are no lengthy lectures or windowless conference rooms. Instead there will be conversations around the fire, a space to share and hear stories, the time to think, to share ideas and spark connections with others.
What will my retreat include?
This retreat includes a gathering of connection, facilitated conversations and talks. A nutrient-rich, nourishing lunch made with food from the land. Guests are welcome to enjoy the land, experience our facilitators and there will be the opportunity for everyone to immerse themselves in nature, have a wild swim, enjoy a wood fired sauna and join us for a facilitated forest bathing session.
Where will we be spending our retreat?
We’re be gathering on the regenerative estate of 42 Acres, set in the heart of a nature reserve surrounded by ancient woodlands. It’s a very special place to gather, a wild space, a sacred space, devoted to nature restoration, re-wilding and regenerative land projects, you’ll have the chance to immerse yourself in nature, meet the team and learn about their pioneering projects in food, nature and wellbeing.
What will we be doing?
Encounters Days give us a day to step off the continuous cycle of doing and step into another state of mind and being. These days are dedicated to reconnecting with ourselves and spending time in nature with others. Everyone is invited to bring their products, share their stories and honour the incredible work they’re doing, these days together give us a chance to celebrate the impacts we’re all making.
Join us around the fire, for a day away with like minded people, build connections and open up opportunities for the future.
