The hotel with something to shout about: Lake District property offers guests the chance to release pent-up emotions – through SCREAM therapy

It’s a hotel with something to shout about.

Namely – a scream therapy experience.

Armathwaite Hall Hotel & Spa in the Lake District offers guests the chance to release pent-up frustrations through screaming.

The grand stately home, which is bordered by the calm waters of Bassenthwaite Lake, has dedicated a section of its extensive woodland estate to the practice – far away from guests. 

The hotel bills scream therapy as a ‘cathartic outlet’ that can ‘tap into deep emotions and bring them to the surface’.

The practice is intended to ‘alleviate emotional tension, reduce anxiety, and nurture a profound sense of emotional relief and well-being’.

Those who want to get involved are invited to ‘take a deep breath… look up to the sky… and scream’.

Lorela Movileano, Spa Manager of Armathwaite Hall Hotel & Spa, says: ‘The demands of modern life can exact a toll on both our physical and mental well-being.

‘While our spa offers rejuvenating and relaxing treatments to alleviate this stress, there are moments when a more unconventional approach is called for.

Those who want to try scream therapy can head to the woodlands – well away from hotel (above) and spa guests

‘Within our sprawling 400 acres of private woodland, we’ve curated a haven where our guests can unapologetically be themselves and release pent-up emotions.

‘This age-old practice, though unconventional, offers a cathartic experience that enables our guests to liberate themselves from emotional and physical tensions, fully embracing their journey to relaxation and self-discovery.’

The hotel also offers other wellness packages, such as forest bathing, which involves meditating and connecting with nature, and moon bathing, where guests can rest beneath the stars. And there are plenty of other activities to take part in, such as alpaca walks, archery and wild swimming.
