Nigel Barden - Feast February 2022
It was a marvellous, magical evening dressed beautifully with foraged wooden limbs and wild flowers, many of which were edible. The plant based dishes and drinks, were incredibly tasty and thoughtfully put together and it was lovely to see seasonal ingredients, such as wild garlic being used. Caroline and Rosie make you feel very welcome and relaxed and gathering round a large communal table makes for a convivial evening, with plenty of lively conversation.

Fantastic day at Wild Ivy. So relaxing after a busy week. Felt truly looked after, food was off the chart and came home feeling chilled and refreshed. Loved dabbling in a little art with natural foraged items to make beautiful dream catcher. Thank you so much Caroline and Rosie

Absolutely magical day. Every detail was considered, delicious food, beautiful setting and incredibly talented hosts. Such a treat to take a day out and completely switch off to connect with fabulous people. We will most certainly be back, this is a really special place.

It would be hard to select my favourite part of the day, but I particularly liked the closing moments: sitting in a tepee, being given a piece of paper embedded with wild flower seeds so we could write our intentions before planting the paper so the wild flowers could germinate along with our intentions. How special is that!

The mix of activities (a foraging walk, making Christmas decorations, guided meditation) were seasonal, environmentally friendly and very well run arrived after a chaotic week and left feeling centred, balanced, grounded and re-energised. I will be booking onto more of these in the new year. Highly recommend. the
