Our Retreats
2 night eco-retreats set in the heart of beautiful private woodland, a relaxing escape with a twist, as a bespoke skatepark awaits you under the tree canopy, as does a wood-fired spa & cosy massage cabin – and of course, a bunch of new friends!
“I’m so much more confident since the retreat. It made such a difference learning in a space that felt safe for everyone, surrounded by really supportive and encouraging people. Honestly the most fun i’ve had all year!”
