Space to Breathe, Time to Connect

First Retreats

 Our first retreats are small, welcoming gatherings designed for first time retreaters craving real connection. Whether you’re feeling a bit lost, burnt out, or simply seeking meaningful time with others, these weeks offer a gentle space to be yourself. There’s no pressure, no agenda β€” just time shared with kind people, nourishing food, and simple moments that remind us we’re not alone. Come as you are. Leave feeling lighter, seen, and a little more human. 


Making the decision to attend your first retreat often has several barriers with one of these being the price. We are offering the following dates for first retreaters only at Β£150 per week (arrive Monday, leave Friday) to make this part of your decision as easy as we can. We hope to see you soon for your first retreat!

The 4 nights I had at The Wisp, managed to help me relax, connect with nature, make new friends and make me grateful that spaces like this exist. I didn't realise how much it was needed until I experienced it.

A safe haven to discover yourself, be vulnerable, be supported, support others, learn, be inspired, share and BE community.

So communal living? You might think that sounds awful. I'm a very private person and not once did I feel uncomfortable. You have plenty of space for yourself but it is somehow incredible to feel part of a community that blossoms out of nothing.

It is genuinely one of the best things I have ever done.


The communal living aspect of the retreat made it all the more special and helped us all to bond as a group.
