The Retreat

The Retreat

A tranquil haven in the the wild Northumbrian landscape, our new spa is where wellness lives in a harmonious balance of past, present and future. A true retreat, with true sense of place.

Opening 15th September 2026

Completely reimagined and carefully crafted. The Retreat is unlike anything currently available in the region. Here, natural beauty flows, calm, cool and inviting while the ancient past echoes and soars above.

Devoted to the art of wellbeing, ancient ritual, modern skincare and advanced therapy are thoughtfully interwoven, drawing the best from each to nourish, relax and restore.

Heritage AND Harmony

Set in a characterful Grade II listed estate nestled in the heart of an ancient landscape, The Retreat at Matfen Hall reflects its own unique heritage.

Cloistered poolside lounging areas, graceful arches and lambent natural light evoke the rituals and classical baths of Northumberland’s Roman past.

Outside, a vitality pool and sensory garden embrace the natural beauty of the estate. A place where wild landscapes are calmed, creating a haven of gentle, restful joy.
