Relax In Peace woodland spa Retreat

21 - 23 August 2026, Kilve, Somerset

Fabulous weekend retreat in idyllic woodland setting with private outdoor spa and heated swimming Pool

A uniquely tender retreat to bring you home to yourself, your body, your life

Join me for a retreat with a very special difference. This exceptional venue is set atop the rolling hills of Somerset with mesmerising views over land all the way to the sea. Time stands still and the weight of the world can drop from your shoulders as softly as autumn leaves from the trees. 

 

But we get to enjoy it in all its summer glory, with the heated open air pool and hot tub just calling for you to jump in! Surrounded by trees, the pool is completely private, a tranquil idyl to while away the afternoons. 

this lovingly prepared retreat will meet you as you are, fostering self acceptance and inner gentleness

Space is limited so we can come together and journey gently and companionably together through a weekend of mindfulness and gentle movement. Accommodation is split between 3 fabulous shepherds huts, set apart in their own area of land, and the welcoming cottage with its beautifully furnished rooms and comfy lounge just next door to the yoga studio.

 

In the stillness of the land, experience the night sky as it was intended to be seen, slow your pace and rest awhile in the woodland sanctuary living space as you lose yourself in the view... This retreat is structured to offer both the joy and comfort of connection with others and the space to voyage into your own inner world, where peace, clarity and understanding await.

An exquisite retreat space nestled in a quiet rural setting which encourages letting go and deep replenishment

"It gave me everything I hoped for, and lots more. The whole experience was seamlessly organic - the peace and serenity, the acceptance and support of everyone in the group, the wonderful food that was growing all around us and magically appeared on our plates, the yoga that soothed and strengthened, comforted and challenged... and above all the generous spirit in which Julia teaches, weaving it all together in the most accessible way.  I count myself very lucky indeed."  Marilyn 

Entering onto this peaceful land, life immediately slows down and the pulse quietens. All inclusive full board with deliciously freshly prepared plant based whole food - we take care of everything so you'll be free to completely unwind. Sessions will be tailored to the group and include time for special requests. No need to have ever stepped on a yoga mat, but if you have prepare for something extra magical.
