This is a small retreat that offers a peaceful haven in a small village near Whitby and a few minutes from the Sea.

We will be offering a blend of meditations, writing, nature therapy, connection, conscious discussions with the aim to create a peace, tranquillity and stillness within.
Part of the weekend will hold silent meditations whilst being held by the natural soundscapes around us.
This is an absolutely beautiful and peaceful part of the country.
Participants who attended this year stated that they felt totally rested, rejuvenated and some are returning again on this retreat.
A few of us will be staying at the gorgeous Mulgrave Country Cottage - this year (2025) all of stayed here and it was magical.
The cost for this retreat does not include the accommodation or any food/drinks which enables people to join within their own budgets
