  • The Retreat is fully catered.

    Due to room preparation please arrive on your first day in the afternoon and leave in the morning of your last day.

    There are 2 cycles here and good walks.

    If as a group some of you would like me to run a workshop during your stay, I am very willing to do so. I understand that some of you might not want to join in and would prefer to work at things in your own time.

  • Flexible, expert advice when you need it. Book hourly support across a range of topics—from planning to problem-solving. This focused consultation will help clarify your goals, map out next steps, and identify opportunities for growth.

  • I will be driving to one village or other, daily, for supplies and will happily take a few people with me each time if they want to take a coffee as I shop.

    You are welcome to rent a car at the airport, otherwise there is a direct line to our local station, which takes 1.5 hours. I will collect and return participants to the local station at the beginning and end of the five days (pm collection and am drop off).

  • Materials will have to be brought with you, but I may have items you are in need of if necessary.

  • The cost per person is £850 for the 4 full days, 5 nights.

    Deposit of 10% is required on booking and non refundable 3 months prior to course date.
