The Swoosh Retreat:
Where your wild swim meets complete luxury

4-6 June 2027 | From £945pp

Planning on swimming The Bantham Swoosh in 2027? Then spend two nights at Seaflowers, with luxury accommodation, nutritious fuelling food, restorative yoga sessions, deep-tissue massage and all logistics taken care of. The entire weekend is designed around your swim adventure.

Seaflowers guarantees every retreat guest a charity swim place. That means no lottery nerves, no missing out: your spot in the water is secured as part of the package. Our retreat quite literally takes care of everything for you, so you can focus on your training and enjoying the truly iconic ride of the tide!

The Bantham Swoosh

Swim

The Bantham Swoosh is one of the most popular open-water swims in the UK. During the final kilometre the ebbing tide is funnelled through a narrow section of river creating a "swoosh" that has you swimming up to four times your normal speed. It's a fantastic experience, swimming 6 kilometres along a beautiful river, with a friendly and supportive community.

Seaflowers are proud “Friends Of’ Level Water, the charity who organise the Swoosh. Thanks to our partnership we exclusively guarantee our guests a charity swim space to this sell-out event. 10% of the Swoosh Retreat’s profit are donated to Level Water to help fund adapted disability swimming lessons to children across the UK. As a charity swim place holder you’ll be committing to raising £250 for Level Water.

Your host Suzy will join swimmers in the water (in her sixth-year swimming!). All your logistics will be taken care of, with transfers to/from Seaflowers, so you can focus on enjoying your swim.

Nourish

Hannah from Herbs & Wild will be providing beautiful, seasonal food to fuel and nourish you throughout the weekend. Herbs & Wild is centred on delicious food that celebrates vibrant herbs and foraged wild ingredients in combination with carefully sourced, seasonal ingredients.

Hannah works at Glebe House in East Devon and helps No Mis en Plastic with research, socials and strategy - both her food and values are perfectly algined with the ethos of this retreat.

Each meal and snack will be specifically designed around your swim. From nutritious breakfasts, to delectable snacks, to hearty feast around the Seaflowers dinner table - every meal will be prepared with the very best local ingredients to fuel you pre-swim and aid your post-swim recovery.

Recover

Each retreat spot includes a 1-hour deep tissue massage with sports massage therapists Lou Parker Swift and Katie Brown. They’ll use a fusion of techniques - including deep tissue massage, trigger point and fascial work, acupressure and hot stones - to help you relax post-swim.

On Saturday evening you'll unwind with a 90-minute restorative yoga session. From slow, mindful movements to longer-held supportive postures, Francesca will guide you to achieving a full body and mind release. And on Sunday morning there'll be a final yoga flow to recharge and round-out your weekend.

You'll also enjoy time to sink into the soothing warmth of our hot tub, stroll along Frogmore Creek’s idyillic shoreline, give stand-up paddle boarding ago from the bottom of the Seaflowers’ garden, and enjoy debrief chats around the firepit with your fellow swimmers.

Your luxury room awaits…

Whether you’re coming solo, swimming with a friend, or have a supportive parnter who’s along for the ride, there’s an option to suit you. Swimmers are welcome to be joined by non-swimming partners or friends, who can walk along the river while you swim and still enjoy the weekend’s activities.

What our retreat guests have been saying...

  • "The Wild Ones yoga retreat was flawless from start to finish."

    Sarah, The Wild Ones Retreat, July 2025

    “I had the absolute joy of staying at Seaflowers for the first Wild Ones x Seaflowers yoga retreat, and honestly, it was flawless from start to finish. The accommodation was stunning, so thoughtfully put together, down to the tiniest details. You could tell a lot of care had gone into creating a space that felt both luxurious and welcoming. Every room was beautifully styled with local artwork, super comfy beds, and little touches like a fridge and tea and coffee setup that made everything feel just right.The setting itself couldn’t be more ideal. Tucked away in the peaceful village of Frogmore, Seaflowers backs straight onto the creek, which made paddleboarding in the early morning and evening an absolute dream. And with the South West Coast Path and gorgeous beaches like Mattiscombe, Gara Rock, and Torcross just a short drive away, there was no shortage of things to do nearby, whether you’re after adventure or just a bit of peace. It’s one of those places you don’t want to leave. I’d move in permanently if I could. Will be recommending it to everyone. Five stars without hesitation.”

  • "Down to every detail, nothing was missed - perfect weekend!"

    Nicole, The Wild Ones Retreat, July 2025

    “A friend and I stayed at Seaflowers for a wonderful yoga retreat. The photos on the website looked lovely but WOW WOW WOW, what a gorgeous venue, and what a lovely bright world Suzy has created. The pristine and delightful décor, the view and the peacefulness which you see and feel in every room, all underscored by Suzy's care and warmth she showed us all. Having our delicious meals al fresco overlooking that incredible view at sunset, then waking up to yummy breakfasts beautifully laid out on the giant shared picnic table. Down to every detail, nothing was missed and ALL was very appreciated. Perfect weekend!”

  • "The location, food, company, house - everything was perfect."

    Becky, The Wild Ones Retreat, July 2025

    “Just magic! I arrived at the Sadie and Seaflowers Retreat tense and distracted, but left feeling reconnected to all the things that are important to me… just magic! The location, the food, the company, the house - everything was perfect. Sadie and Suzy put so much effort into each special detail; from the show stopper welcome seafood feast to personalised goody bags full of local treats on our beds. It was such a restorative experience that I’ve already booked to go back later in the year with a friend. Counting down the days!”

  • "A truly special retreat by the water."

    Amsy, The Wild Ones Retreat, July 2025

    “Seaflowers is an absolute gem — the perfect blend of tranquility, comfort, and warmth. From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at ease. The space is clean, spacious, and beautifully maintained, with stunning views right on the water.

    The yoga retreat experience was truly amazing — thoughtfully led and set against a beautiful backdrop. It’s clear a lot of care goes into creating such a relaxing environment.

    I would absolutely recommend Seaflowers to anyone looking for a restful escape, or a meaningful retreat.”

  • "Fantastic stay at Seaflowers, Suzy is an incredible host!"

    Lara, The Wild Ones Retreat, July 2025

    “I came to stay at Seaflowers through a wonderful retreat collaboration hosted by Suzie and Sadie Tonks. It was the most magical long weekend, it was totally faultless. The accommodation and facilities are fantastic plus Suzy (and Sadie) were amazing hosts and the food was incredible. I loved the fact that there was space to do yoga outside or inside (we did both) and the icing on the cake was also being able to use the boathouse and go paddle boarding within a few steps from the house. I can’t wait to come again!”

  • "I left feeling nourished, inspired and recharged. 10/10!”

    Rachael, The Wild Ones Retreat, July 2025

    “The Wild Ones Retreat at Seaflowers was absolutely incredible. I hadn't been on a retreat before but after a hectic few years of parenting, a period of illness and a bit of work stress thrown into the mix, I decided to gift this experience to myself for my 40th birthday as an investment in my own wellbeing.

    It was the best decision! The guesthouse is beautifully appointed with stylish touches and every comfort, in a gorgeous creekside setting. Yoga sessions were both energising and restorative, the food was nutritious and delicious and the hosting by Sadie, Hannah and Suzy was impeccable. There was a mix of solo guests and people in pairs and whilst there no pressure to spend all of the time together (I had time to read and to have a nap!) we all connected at various points over the weekend and got along really well which was so lovely.

    Activities like paddle boarding and a gentle hike to a stunning beach made the most of the Devon landscape, we were lucky to have amazing weather but I'm certain that rain or shine it would have been spectacular. I left feeling nourished, inspired and recharged. 10/10, highly recommend!”

  • "The most warm, welcoming and attentive host"

    Lottie, The Wild Ones Retreat, October 2025

    Wow - what a special place! I stayed at Seaflowers for a retreat weekend and left feeling completely relaxed, rested, and restored.

    You can feel the love and care Suzy has poured into every detail of Seaflowers. The gorgeous sheets, spacious open-plan living area (perfect for a group) and the stunning views, gardens, and hot tub made it an unforgettable stay.

    Suzy was the most warm, welcoming, and attentive host, and truly made us feel at home in this beautiful place.”
