Come and see what Life at Selgars could feel like.
Flexible stays from two weeks to six months. Bring your work, your warmth, your ideas and your talents. Let’s make a home together.
“We create a feeling of home in the little moments, through small acts of kindness, creativity and collective responsibility.”
Not a hotel. Not a hostel. Not an Airbnb.
Selgars is a home you get to help make.
Experience a slower, more regenerative way of living, rooted in nature and community. We share more than a roof: meals, thoughts, challenges, ideas, skills and memories.
Winter brings the cold, we bring the warmth
What makes Selgars Coliving special is our culture of caring for each other and approaching life with positivity and curiosity. We create a feeling of home in the little moments through small acts of kindness and collective responsibility.
New to the concept of coliving in nature?
Why choose countryside coliving at Selgars in Devon?
Selgars Coliving gives you all the benefits of living in the countryside — being in nature, having more space to work and play, and enjoying a slower and more peaceful way of life — without the downsides of feeling lonely, isolated and lacking a community to share life with.
Whether you are a digital nomad craving some stillness and stability or a couple living in the city looking to try something different, Selgars is a place where you can truly recharge, reset and experience living in a fun and caring community. Coliving can also be a great way to navigate big life transitions. Perhaps you are feeling burnout from your job, or find yourself heartbroken after a tough breakup, or maybe you just love the idea of coliving and are curious to try something new. Selgars is a magical place that we love deeply and feel blessed to call our home. Coliving gives us an opportunity to share this home with you.
How it works
Selgars Coliving is the ideal way to end and begin your year. We all work during the day and then enjoy shared meals and group activities in the evening. We are passionate about health and wellness and encourage each other to stay committed to good habits and daily practices. We also end each season with a small co-created festival called Selgarnia in April.

“Imagination is the only key to the future. Without it none exists — with it all things are possible.”

Who you’ll be coliving with

I am excited about making this year’s coliving even more intentional, where we inspire each other to establish new routines and wellness practices.

I’m an event-operations-communications manager, and so much more than those titles. I wrote a book called Have Your Cake And Share It Too.

What our colivers say about us
Testimonials
“I absolutely loved staying at Selgars. Thank you so much for having me. I love how you’ve created a beautiful ever-evolving pop-up community where everyone can share, learn and grow together. I felt really inspired by the conversations with everyone, loved the mini adventures and thoroughly enjoyed the evening socialising. I also thought the property was fab and am super excited for the next chapter. Oh and Zuko was the icing on the cake!”
Clare Inkster
Unilever & The Curiosity Experiment
“I’d always dreamed of living in community with people, in nature, holistically. Selgars was my first experience of it and I have to say it’s exceeded all my expectations. The land, the Mill, are an incredible setting, the culture Mo and Anton have built is truly beautiful, I’ve built numerous deep meaningful connections through Selgars and I consider it home. For someone very busy with work, it’s the perfect tonic.”
Josh Graham
Climate tech founder
“I think if there’s anything to take from our time together, it’s how awesome co-living and making friends can be. It’s about sharing moments, learning from each other, and just having a great time together. It really makes life richer. So, thanks again for everything.”
Malte Wagenbach
Tech & business
“How fortunate I am to have met so many interesting and inspiring people; living such bespoke lives and prioritising what matters! This has been the most meaningful coliving stint I’ve had, and off the back of some varied experiences, I’m relieved to have found myself among people on a similar wavelength.”
Tania Kerins
Artist & illustrator
“The time with you felt so nourishing, calm, and like a great example of how I would imagine living in community for the long run. Thank you all for creating this space together — the great food, inspiring chats, and the chores that felt so easy because everybody was always helping out.”
Christoph Hartmann
Software developer & founder
“I love living in community and the idea of staying with like minded folks in a beautiful part of the country in an amazing historic building felt like a no brainer. A way to explore what it means for a community to really work and also find some of that work life balance. I couldn’t recommend it enough. It just really feels like everyone is on a similar wavelength. We care for one another. Share meals, share vibes. Create spontaneous beautiful moments. Have fun. Work hard too. Relax. It’s just great.”
Ashleigh Arton (Lilu)
Climate consultant
“Filled with energy and gratitude, I left Selgars with a smile on my lips. The welcoming and open atmosphere together with the magical forests and flowing streams under the mill made a heartwarming impression on me. Looking forward to sharing meals and stories soon again. Thank you!”
