Peak District Wellbeing Retreat – Gradbach Mill (11–13 September)
Feeling like you need time to pause, reset and breathe again?
Join Anne Kemp-Eyre and Julia Hartley for a restorative weekend immersed in nature at Gradbach Mill, on the western edge of the Peak District National Park.
Over three days you’ll experience a carefully balanced retreat of guided walking, yoga/Pilates, meditation, deep relaxation and nourishing food — all set within peaceful countryside beside the River Dane.
A restorative weekend in nature
This is more than a walking weekend.
This Peak District wellbeing retreat is designed to help you slow down, step away from everyday pressures and reconnect with yourself through nature, movement and rest.
With a small, welcoming group and experienced hosts, the weekend offers space to relax, reset and enjoy the outdoors in a supportive environment.
No pressure. Just good guidance, calm surroundings and time to recharge.
