Maycroft Retreat

Getting ready for a private retreat at Maycroft ✨

One of the things we love most is seeing our space transformed for intimate gatherings, where guests can step away from the everyday and immerse themselves in a truly restorative experience.

This week’s private retreat brought together some of our favourite elements of Maycroft — a deeply relaxing sound bath, time to unwind in the Wild Spa with sauna, cold plunge and aromatherapy hot tubs, and a beautifully prepared dining experience shared beneath the canvas of the tipi.

From the first cup of tea to the final moments of the evening, every detail is designed to create space for connection, relaxation and meaningful moments together.

Whether you’re planning a wellness retreat, celebration, corporate gathering or special occasion, our retreat space can be tailored to create a unique experience for your group.

There’s something truly special about gathering in nature, slowing down and sharing unforgettable experiences with the people around you.

Interested in hosting your own private retreat or event at Maycroft? We’d love to hear from you.

Thank you so much Scotland Now for sharing our little patch of heaven ❤️

What a week it’s been.

This week we had the incredible opportunity to chat about Maycroft Retreat on the Chris Evans Breakfast Show, sharing the story behind our little corner of rural Scotland, our Wild Spa, retreats and the vision that has shaped Maycroft into what it is today.

As a small independent business, moments like this feel pretty surreal. To be given the chance to talk about something we’ve poured so much love, hard work and passion into was a real privilege.

A huge thank you to for such a warm, generous and genuinely enjoyable conversation. Chris was an absolute pleasure to speak with and made us feel completely at ease from the moment we started talking.

We’ve been overwhelmed by the lovely messages, enquiries and support we’ve received since the interview aired. Every comment, share, recommendation and booking means the world to us, and we’re so grateful to everyone who has taken the time to follow our journey.

A special thank you to for making this opportunity happen and for believing in what we’re building here at Maycroft.

For those who are new here, welcome. We can’t wait to share Maycroft with you.

Here’s to continuing to create magical experiences, meaningful connections and a place where people can truly slow down, breathe and reconnect.

Thank you for being part of the journey.

The perfect addition to your Maycroft stay…

A visit to our Wild Spa is all about slowing down, switching off and making time for yourself — and a treatment at Meadowsweet Spa takes that experience to the next level.

Whether you’re looking to ease tired muscles, melt away stress or simply indulge in a little extra self-care, our treatments are designed to leave you feeling deeply relaxed and restored.

From soothing massages to restorative therapies, it’s the perfect way to make your stay even more special.

Treatment availability can be limited, so we always recommend booking before your arrival to avoid disappointment.

Planning your Maycroft escape? Why not treat yourself and make relaxation the centre of your stay.

Book your treatment in advance and let the countdown to total relaxation begin.

Today’s Soulful Sunday was everything we hoped it would be.

Three hours of sound, stillness and deep rest beneath the canvas of the tipi, guided beautifully by Ali Taylor from Rainbow Lotus Wellbeing.
The rain arrived, but rather than interrupting the experience, it became part of it. The gentle sound of raindrops on the canvas created the most magical backdrop, helping everyone settle deeper into the moment.

Guests gathered over herbal teas, connected with like-minded women, and embraced the restorative rituals of our Wild Spa — moving between sauna heat, cold plunge refreshment and the aromatherapy hot tub.

There was laughter, reflection, relaxation and a wonderful sense of community throughout the day.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and helped create such a special atmosphere. Days like this remind us just how powerful it can be when people come together to slow down, reconnect and simply be.

We’ll be sharing more events, retreats and experiences throughout the year, so keep an eye on our website and social channels for the latest updates.

Thank you for being part of it.

A few hours dedicated entirely to you.

Step away from the noise of everyday life and immerse yourself in a spa ritual designed for rest, renewal and reconnection.

Begin with a half-day Wild Spa experience, moving between the warmth of the sauna, the refreshing cold plunge and our aromatherapy spring water hot tubs. Sip herbal teas, take in the views across the hills and allow yourself the space to simply be.

Then settle into our relaxation tipi for a nourishing vegetarian feast, thoughtfully prepared to leave you feeling restored from the inside out.

This is your invitation to slow down, soften and reconnect with yourself.
