A Think Week cabin getaway is advocated and practiced by Bill Gates to increase focus and boost creative thinking. Go solo for a 7 day digital detox in an off-grid cabin for the ultimate reset.
BILL GATES THINK WEEK
A Think Week is a dedicated period of time to take a break from your regular work routine to focus on strategic planning, problem-solving and brainstorming new ideas.
A Think Week is usually a solo escape with no technology. You seclude yourself in an off-grid cabin (preferably in nature) to minimise distractions and stimulate creativity.

A Think Week is a period of time, typically a week, that you set aside to disconnect from the distractions of daily life and focus solely on thinking, brainstorming, and planning. During this time, you typically disconnect from your regular sources of information and stimulation, such as email and social media. A ‘Think Week’ is simply a 7 day digital detox that gives you the time to read, write, and focus.
Bill Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft, is well-known for his annual Think Week retreats. Bill books in two 7 day detoxes, during which he disconnects from technology and spends a week reading papers and proposals written by employees and other experts. This process enables him to reflect on the current state of his business and industry, as well as to generate new ideas for future innovation.
It costs £750 for 6 nights at your off-grid cabin. Some cabins are 7 night escapes for the same price.
Unplugged Think Weeks are at different cabins each month, depending on date availability. You can find out which cabins and dates are available here.
Anyone can go on a Think Week, but it tends to be those who are looking to have a longer period to focus, or reflect on work or an upcoming project.
Or you can book a Think Week if you just want 6 nights offline!
