14th - 16th June 2024: Kudhva // Cornwall

A weekend of connection, camping, and creativity.

To celebrate 10 years in print and the launch of our 30th issue, join us at the beautiful Kudhva in Cornwall for a weekend of Sidetracked LIVE. Climb the nearby crags; swim or surf in the sea; run, ride, and walk the trails. Read, write, capture and listen. Eat, drink, and dance. Connect with nature; connect with community.

Join us where the land meets the sea

Elements is set to be a retreat weekend like no other. Set in stunning Kudhva in Cornwall, where the elements of nature will embrace us, join a community of like-minded creative adventure-lovers for activities, inspiration, and connection.

A Location Like No Other

Kudhva is a unique and sustainable spot in Cornwall and enjoys panoramic views of the rugged North Cornish coastline and a unique and simple way of living; totally off grid, in a beautifully curated space. The famous cabins are built high off the ground for a perspective on the nature around; and the teepees sit prominently on the hillside with views over the Atlantic.

Whichever style of accommodation you book, your nights with us at Kudhva are certain to bring relaxation, rejuvenation and inspiration. We’ll be offering camping accommodation for tents or campervans, or treat yourself to a special weekend in one of the cabins or teepees (booking information coming soon).

‘Loved it. Loved all of it. Lively and intimate and so inspiring. We had such a brilliant time’
