country retreat
Escape to nature
A country retreat is a rural property used as an escape from urban or suburban life—typically a second home where one goes for rest, privacy, or recreation.
The phrase emphasizes both the pastoral setting and the purpose of withdrawal: They spent weekends at their country retreat in the Cotswolds.
Politicians and executives often maintain country retreats for relaxation or discreet meetings.
