If January had a national anthem, it would be the sound of a gym membership being renewed in a mild panic. But Yeotown has taken a more civilised route into the new year: feeding people properly.
The wellness retreat brand is bringing its restorative philosophy to the capital with a Winter Supper Club Series at Inhabit Queen’s Gardens, Bayswater—where Yeotown already operates a London restaurant—plus a second Yeotown outpost at Inhabit Hotels Southwick St. The idea is simple: plant-forward dining, smart conversation, and a reset that doesn’t involve punishment.
Set inside the calm, design-led world of B Corp-certified Inhabit Hotels, the series aims to replace the usual post-work routine—overpriced crisps, loud music, and the next-day regret—with something more useful: a nourishing meal and a guided discussion on how to live better without turning life into a spreadsheet.
Yeotown’s Winter Supper Clubs run from January to March 2026, led by two familiar names in the wellbeing space: psychotherapist Julia Samuel MBE and naturopath and wellness author Lucinda Miller.
The concept: supper, then substance
Yeotown has long traded on the idea that wellbeing is not a bootcamp—it’s consistency. These evenings lean into that. Expect seasonal, plant-forward dining paired with expert-led discussion around wellbeing, resilience and balance. In plain English: you eat, you exhale, you leave with something practical rather than a bag of guilt.
And, crucially, it’s social in the old-fashioned sense—people in a room, talking, not “networking” like they’re trying to sell each other life insurance.

Dates and themes
Yeotown has laid out the programme clearly—three evenings, three angles on modern life, each pitched for real humans who have jobs, families, and a nervous system that’s seen too much.
Monday 19 January — Being Your Authentic Self with Julia Samuel
A reflective evening focused on authenticity, emotional strength and setting grounded intentions for the year ahead.
Tuesday 3 February — Gut Health with Lucinda Miller
A deep dive into digestive health, also serving as an introduction for guests interested in Yeotown’s Gut Health Reset Edit in Devon.
Tuesday 10 March — How to Lower Your Cortisol with Julia Samuel
Practical insights into stress reduction, nervous system regulation and restoring balance in everyday life.
Why this works in London (and why hotels are leaning into it)
Wellness used to mean disappearing to the countryside and returning with a tote bag full of supplements and a new personality. Londoners still love an escape, but they also want wellbeing that fits into real schedules. Yeotown’s approach—an urban, evening-based “reset without deprivation”—is precisely the sort of programming hotels are using to bring locals into their spaces while giving staying guests something more memorable than another lobby drink.
Inhabit’s sustainability-first ethos also makes the partnership feel coherent rather than bolted on. A plant-centric supper club lands differently when it’s hosted in a hotel that’s already built its identity around wellness-led hospitality, thoughtful design, and a lower-impact way of doing business.
What you can expect on the night
Yeotown hasn’t positioned this as a lecture hall. The tone is intimate and nourishing, with the meal doing half the work: it slows you down. The discussion does the rest: it gives you language and tools you can actually use the next morning, not “someday”.
The themes are also shrewdly chosen:
- Authenticity in January, when everyone is making promises they don’t believe.
- Gut health in February, when the body’s quietly asking for a ceasefire.
- Cortisol and stress in March, when the year is in motion and you’re expected to “just cope”.
Yeotown, at its best, has always been about making the better choice the easier choice. These evenings look built on the same principle.
