The Quadrangle
The Darent Valley, 40 minutes from Central London, is home to The Quadrangle, a 19th Century farmstead that has been converted into an educational space and retreat centre.
Flexible and adaptable, the grounds around the grand brick barn, include a permaculture and vegetable garden, camping grounds, river for swimming, a converted Granary, two dormitories, a self-catering apartment, bell tents and an Airstream caravan.
Our guests, who come back again and again, express that it is the unique character of the spaces, the rural setting and the wild swimming in the Darent river that makes The Quadrangle such a good choice for yoga retreats, training workshops, strategy sessions, company-away-days, conferences and creative events.
