At Hazel Hill Wood, we host a mix of open events, retreats, and gatherings throughout the year. Some are run by us, others by partners and facilitators who share our values.
All of them offer time to slow down, reconnect with nature, and spend meaningful time together in the woods.
Upcoming events
Easter Family Fun, Friday 10th April
Fun, creative, hands-on activities for free-range kids aged 2 – 11, safely managed by a Forest School Leader. A bug hunt or an Easter egg hunt? You choose…
Midweek Reset Day Retreat, Wed 15th April ’26
Mindfulness, bushcraft skills and peaceful woodland connection with Charley and Nick.
Blossoming You with Wild Way Retreats, 16th – 19th April
A retreat for any woman who feels she’s at a fork in the road, or at a threshold – because of menopause, loss, or other life-change. Are you seeking a space to rest into the rhythm of becoming? Then this offering is for you.
Bushcraft Fire Skills, Thursday 30 April
Learn how to use fire strikers to “catch” different tinders. We’ll toast ourselves a snack on our own campfire and learn how to use a Kelly kettle to boil water.
Fun in the Forest with Polly, Monday 25 May
A woodland play session for families with children aged between 2 and 11 years. From bug hunts to learning to safely use hand tools for woodworking fun, choose your own adventures!

Wild Within Solstice Retreat, 19th – 21st June
A gentle, spacious weekend retreat for Autistic and/or ADHD women and AFAB adults to rest, reflect, and reconnect – with themselves and with others who truly understand. This is about discovering, not improving; being as you are, discovering what you need and being in connection and community with others.
