"Stone-henge for the show, Avebury for the know."

Welcome to a world of ancient stone circles, working farms and arguably some of the country's best bacon delivered to your door each morning. In this episode, Molly is sitting down with Alice and Rob whose family bought The Farm at Avebury in the 1900s and have been farming it ever since.

Now, they welcome guests to stay in the farm's beautifully converted stable block where they can befriend the farm's piglets while exploring everything this southern tip of the Cotswolds has to offer.

"Oh how I long to run away from normal days, I want to run wild with my imagination"

Home to a secret garden said to have inspired Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, Cowley Manor is quite simply a magical, almost whimsical reinterpretation of the English country house.

Following a takeover by the brilliant Experimental Group, this sprawling estate has been brought firmly into the modern age with bold interiors that are all about celebrating eccentricity with a big old dollop of joy. Here to tell Molly all about it is Xavier Padovani who joined the group in 2010 and has brought spaces to life around Europe and NYC.

Join Molly and Xavier as they talk about creating a space for locals and tourists alike to wander the extensive grounds, laze away the days in the (rather spectacular spa) or dive into a long evening of feasting.

It's official, wellness has been hijacked.

From green smoothies and HIIT to endless gym leggings, the fads keep on coming. But one botanical fragrance brand is here to bring us all back to what really matters, quality time to ground us and reconnect us to the great outdoors.

Join Molly as she sits down with Ellea Whamond who heads up 100 Acres to talk about the grounding power of scent and creating beautiful botanical products that transport people back to nature.
