Tags: , , ,


Louma

With bookings for “nature retreats” rising by 23% (Bokun Travel) and European heatwaves driving travellers to seek closer to home escapes, the UK countryside is enjoying a quiet renaissance. Louma offers the perfect retreat, providing a nature-forward sanctuary just moments from city life in a true home away from home.

From stargazing amongst the vines to yoga atop a cowbarn, intimate evenings in the Shepherd Huts and family escapes in the Timber Stables, Louma invites guests to slow down and savour the small in-between moments, discovering the quieter luxury in nature alongside outstanding cuisine and indulgent spa experiences.

Introducing Louma

Tucked away in the wild beauty of Dorset's Marshwood Vale, Louma's charming 17-key abode offers the kind of escape that feels completely off-grid, yet just 2.5 hours by train from London.

The perfect nature-forward retreat where rolling farmland, woodland trails, and vineyard views invites guests to slow down and switch off year-round. Whether it's welcoming the UK summer as the outdoor swimming pool reopens in June, marking vineyard season as grapes ripen under golden skies in September, or enjoying a peaceful autumn escape including, leaf-strewn trails and outdoor braais, each season at Louma offers something unique to savour and recharge.

An Escape for All Ages

Louma welcomes families with open arms with a host of rich, tailored experiences to slow down and savour the in-between moments, including offering the chance for children to meet and feed the animals, build campfires, explore the outdoors on horseback, or simply lie under the stars and marvel the constellations. From babies to teens, a range of stylish accommodations are tailored to suit everyone.

Clever Connection

At the heart of Louma's offering is its state-of-the-art Wellness Barn & Spa, featuring TechnoGym, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, sauna, cold water therapy and holistic therapies by Wildsmith Skin.

Transformative wellness experiences that ground oneself with nature including yoga atop the Cow Barn where guests can breathe the fresh countryside with resident cows and calves below, outdoor sound baths, meditation workshops, forest walks, and horseback rides to nearby Charmouth Beach, complete with picnic, offer immersive ways to reconnect with nature at a gentle pace.

A Culinary Melting Pot

Louma's fresh farm-to-fork dining is a celebration of local, seasonal produce, crafted in tune with the surrounding landscape. Open-air braais mark the start of summer, served under the stars with ingredients sourced from Louma's gardens, fields and pastures. All whilst sipping the very best award-winning English sparkling wine made on-site as part of Louma's sprawling 33-acre vineyard estate including a curated collection of two signature sparkling wines and three still wines – of which have just won Gold for the Sparkling Cuvee and Bronze for the Chardonnay at the prestigious Wine GB Awards 2025.

Whether reconnecting with loved ones, sharing formative moments with the family, or embracing a solo escape, Louma promises deeper, more meaningful travel for the future.
