Fantastic location, very tranquil part of the Devonshire countryside next to the river dart. Very relaxed structure when I went for the new years retreat.

Overall Experience

Pre retreat I was sceptical about the benefits but I have to say it was very good for the body, mind and soul! Not to mention the stomach with the fantastic vegetarian food prepared with love cooked into every dish by Chef Janet and her team. Patty and Lynne were both fabulous! Would definitely return …
