Seasonal Stays
Spiritual Event
All Hallows’ Eve
31 October-2 November 2025
At Halloween, the air carries a unique kind of magic. Ancient traditions tell us that the veil between our world and the spirit world grows thin. It is the perfect moment—caught in the stillness between worlds—to book a reading with Sara, and receive guidance from your spirit guides as well as maintain a comforting sense of connection with those no longer physically present.
This season of reflection and remembrance pairs beautifully with long autumnal horse rides in the countryside around Westerlands, followed by a spiced pumpkin latte at the Horsebox Café, and cozying up by the fire after a warming meal from our Farmhouse Kitchen.
Astronomical Event
Winter Solstice
21 December 2025
Honour the significance of the year’s shortest day and the moment when darkness begins to give way to light. Most of our farm stays feature their own fireplace or firepit, allowing you to embrace ancient Nordic traditions by burning a Yule log—symbolising the return of the sun, inviting good fortune, and offering protection for the months ahead.
At Westerlands Horsebox Café, we mark the occasion with a sweet and festive touch: enjoy a slice of Bûche de Noël, the traditional edible Yule log. Paired with mulled wine, hot chocolate, or spiced cider, it’s the perfect way to celebrate the season while indulging in classic Yuletide flavours.
Astronomical Event
