The Wagtail Experience
Every stay at Wagtail is built around life’s simplest pleasures — fresh air, still water, open skies, and time to just be.
Explore our wild swimming lake, wood-fired sauna, and outdoor baths for the ultimate countryside reset.
Among the vines
Our working vineyard is the heart of Wagtail Retreat, which was planted more than six years ago by James and Chloe and has been cared for by hand ever since.
It shapes the landscape around our cabins, creating views that shift with the seasons — from the first spring buds to golden autumn leaves.
Guests can wander the vineyard paths, enjoy a glass of our English wine from their deck, or take in the calm that comes from being surrounded by nature and craftsmanship.
