Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know before your stay at The Reset at Cedar.
Whether you're joining us for a hosted retreat, escaping to the countryside for a few nights, or thinking about bringing your own group to The Reset, we've answered some of our most frequently asked questions below.
About The Reset
The Reset at Cedar is a peaceful countryside escape in Essex, created for people who want to step away from everyday life for a few days and properly reset.
You can join us for one of our hosted three-night retreats, including yoga, movement and wellbeing experiences, or simply book a bell tent and stay with us without taking part in a retreat at all.
We also welcome corporate retreats, private groups and retreat hosts who would like to create their own experience at The Reset.

Not at all. You can come and stay at The Reset simply because you fancy a few nights away in the Essex countryside.
Book one of our beautifully furnished bell tents and spend your time exactly as you choose. Explore the local area, read outside your tent, go for long walks, enjoy slow mornings or simply switch off for a while.
There's no programme to follow and nowhere you need to be. Our accommodation-only stays are separate from our hosted retreat experiences, so just choose the type of stay that suits you.

A hosted retreat includes a planned programme of activities and experiences, depending on the retreat you choose.
An accommodation-only stay gives you the freedom to enjoy The Reset at your own pace. You'll have your bell tent and access to our shared guest facilities, but your time is entirely your own. If you love the setting but don't particularly want to join a retreat, this is the option for you.

The Reset is set in the Essex countryside, offering a rural escape while remaining accessible from London and the surrounding areas. Full arrival instructions and directions are provided to guests before their stay.
Our main hosted retreats are three-night stays, from Friday to Monday. Each retreat has its own programme, so please check the individual retreat page for exact dates and what's included.
Our hosted wellness retreats are designed as adult experiences, creating a peaceful environment where guests can properly switch off and enjoy some time for themselves.
Choosing Your Retreat
That depends on what you need from your time away.
Our Yoga Reset combines gentle morning yoga, restorative evening practice and relaxing activities. Our Active Reset is for guests who want to move, feel stronger and reconnect with their energy. It isn't a bootcamp – the emphasis is on feeling good rather than pushing yourself to exhaustion. Our Gentle Reset offers a slower, nurturing experience with space to rest, reflect and simply be.
You can also simply book a stay, or explore our corporate retreats and group takeovers.

No. You don't need to already be fit, flexible, experienced at yoga or familiar with retreats. Our experiences are designed to be welcoming and approachable, and our hosts will help you participate at a level that feels comfortable for you.
Absolutely. You don't need to arrive with a friend or partner. Solo guests are very welcome, whether you're joining one of our retreats or simply booking a few nights away by yourself.
No. This is your reset. We create a programme for you to enjoy, but you don't have to fill every moment. If what you need is an afternoon reading outside your tent, having a nap or simply doing nothing for a while, that's completely fine.
Accommodation
Guests stay in furnished bell tents set within the countryside. Depending on the accommodation you choose, tents include comfortable double or king-size beds, crisp bedding and carefully considered natural furnishings. Different tent sizes and occupancy options are available, including private tents and accommodation suitable for sharing.
Yes. You won't be sleeping on the floor or on a camping mat. Our bell tents have proper beds and comfortable bedding so you can enjoy being close to nature without the usual camping experience.
The Reset has been designed as an off-grid countryside experience, so you shouldn't expect the facilities of a conventional hotel room. It's part of what makes staying here different.
