3-Day Longevity & Anti-Aging Wellness Retreat in Suffolk, England

This three-day retreat is hosted by the Gavin sisters, Lauretta and Sharon, who traded comedy for wellness but kept their humor. The programme is built around the idea of living long and living well — focusing on healthspan rather than lifespan. Expect workshops on nutrition and anti-aging habits, practical talks on gut health, and cooking guidance from Lauretta, a comedian-turned-natural vegan chef. It's all delivered with the warmth of two people who genuinely love what they do.

The schedule leans heavily on movement and cold exposure. You'll do daily yoga sessions, strength training that welcomes all levels, and guided country walks. The standout moment for many guests is the ice bath — a Wim Hof-inspired cold-water immersion that's done safely and intentionally, leaving you feeling alive and clear-headed. Breathwork sessions and sound baths round out the offering, giving you tools for calm and resilience that you can use after the retreat ends.

The setting is The Detox Barn, a charming converted barn in Suffolk with original beams and open fires. The property is surrounded by a two-acre garden, and there are fantastic countryside walks right on the doorstep. Previous guests have praised the welcoming atmosphere—staff were described as 'amazing' and the sisters as 'generous' both with their home and their knowledge. The small group size, between six and ten people, creates a sense of intimacy that bigger retreats often lack.

Food is a central part of the experience. Lauretta cooks organic, nutrient-dense, plant-based meals that are high in protein and prepared with a focus on variety and gut health. All meals are included in the package, as are water, tea, and coffee throughout the day. The retreat is alcohol-free, which helps guests reset their habits in a supportive environment. Reviews consistently highlight the quality of the food and the relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere.
