Offline Rainforest Retreat: swap screen time for green time
Join us this summer for a 3 night digital detox retreat in the heart of Cabilla Cornwall, a magical ancient rainforest. No tech, just the healing powers of nature and human connection.
3 NIGHT OFFLINE RETREAT
A digital detox with a difference
We've teamed up with Cabilla Cornwall to curate the perfect blend of unique group experiences and free time to roam, rest, and recharge. For three nights, you’ll swap notifications for conversation, emails for forest walks, and endless scrolling for deep rest. This is a retreat, but not as you know it.
Expect nourishing meals, wild sauna sessions by the river, and gentle guided experiences like yoga and a sound bath. All designed to help you slow down, have fun, and connect with likeminded people who love nature and just want a proper breather from it all.
YOUR PHONE ISN'T INVITED
Swap screen time for green time
Your phone isn't invited. Because, simply - they're bad company. Lock your phone away and spend 3 days offline with us at our first ever digital detox retreat. Disconnect from the hustle and bustle, and reconnect with what matters: humans and nature.
COMMUNITY // CONNECTION // CORNWALL
Join us for 3 days offline at Cabilla Cornwall. Reconnect with nature. Ground your busy mind. And meet your tribe - in real life.
The experience
Curated to help you disconnect from the noise and reconnect to what really matters.
The location
You'll stay in one of Cabilla's cosy Koyt cabins, nestled in a woodland glade. Each Koyt features a log burner, Egyptian cotton linens and Bramley toiletries and can be made up as a king or twin occupancy. You'll also get exclusive access of the whole 300 acre estate and barn.
The switch off
In true Unplugged fashion, we'll lock our phones away together so you can switch off *properly* and reconnect with yourself, nature and others. You'll get an instant camera to snap pics and old school to Nokia if you need to contact friends and family.
The activities
This 'lite' retreat will give you the perfect blend of group activities and free time to roam or rest. Join the guided rainforest tour, morning yoga, evening sound bath and a live music evening with sourdough pizza. Plus woodland sauna sessions with a cold plunge in the river.
The food
Our guest chefs will cook nourishing meals with fresh and local ingredients. This includes a grazing breakfast and barista coffee, a light lunch and dinner. We'll even have some of the best sourdough pizza in Cornwall to enjoy by the fire pit.

FAQS
Who is this retreat for?
Cabilla Unplugged is perfect for anyone who is looking to recharge from busy life and escape being chronically online. Whether you're coming solo, as a couple or friends, we welcome everyone.
What are check in and out times?
Arrival is 3pm to check in to your koyt.
Check out is 9am from the koyt cabin and then 11am from the barn.
Is the retreat open to all ages?
As much as we'd love to welcome little ones, this is an adult only retreat.
Can I bring my dog?
Unfortunately dogs are not able to join the retreat, even though we know they need a break too. This is due to the site not being enclosed and lots of free-roaming wildlife, including Gloria the pig!
What's not included?
We try to include as much as possible, the following things aren't included:
- Travel to Cabilla
- Snacks throughout the day
- Water bottles
Please also note that there are no en-suite toilets in the koyts. There are gorgeous showers and toilets in the barn which are a short walk from the barns.
Will we get free time?
Yes - every activity during the retreat is optional and you can use your time however you wish. You will get dedicated free time to roam, rest, explore or even use the sauna. This is your time to unwind however you want to.
What are the terms and conditions?
Our normal terms and conditions apply, with the exception of cancellation window.
Cancellation window for booking this retreat is 3 weeks before check-in date. This is due to the limited number of places we have for the retreat.
Unplugged members will get £50 discount on their space. Due to this being a partnership retreat, the normal 15% discount does not apply.
