The Art of Slow Living, in person

See our seats

 Slow the day. Try the seat.

Slow the day, find your rhythm, and try our seats in a setting made for unhurried time. We now host visits at Forde Abbey - thirty acres of award-winning gardens on the Somerset/Dorset border - so you can experience the gentle sway, the view, and the calm our seats are crafted to invite.

This is the art of slow living.

What you can try on your visit

Forde Abbey & Gardens hosts a curated set of Sitting Spiritually seats and pergolas in painted Accoya and prime European oak. The exact pieces on show rotate through the seasons, so think classic swing seats and pergola settings that let you compare scale, comfort and finish.

If there’s a particular model you’re considering, tell us when you book and we’ll confirm what’s currently on display.

How visits work

• By appointment (recommended): a calm, personal show-round in the gardens – compare sizes, timbers and finish options, and run through accessories, delivery and aftercare.

• Make a day of it: pair your appointment with time in the abbey gardens. (Garden opening hours and any admission are set by Forde Abbey.)
