DEEP NATURE LOCATIONS

The land we journey on is an important contribution to this work and since our previous retreat home of eight years that was Stephanie’s grandfather’s space was passed onto new owners in 2023, the transition to new grounds and walls that will hold us through these journeys comes with much careful consideration.

The call to be immersed even deeper in nature, off-grid, far removed from the noise of the outside world, felt non-negotiable. In 2024 you can find us at a very special venue – Wakana, located on 18 hectares of protected land, situated by a stunning lake and surrounded by an abundance of wildlife and ancient caves, in Cadiz, Southern Spain.

Accommodation

We will be accommodated in a traditional Spanish Cortico [farmhouse] in clean, cosy and comfortable shared rooms and bathrooms. The property also has large yurts with ensuite bathrooms as well as tipis, onsite, if you are interested in one of these at an extra cost please inquire via email. 

NOURISH

Much of the food will be sourced locally or directly from the land – catering vegetarian. Specific dietary requirements can be attended to with advance notice.

This retreat was mind-blowing. Everything was so educational and thought-provoking, and it left you feeling stunned or mystified that it could be so simple yet so earth-shaking. I felt like I was part of something big and special and I felt so safe in our wild woman pack.
