About this Retreat

Details of this retreat

Our location, just two hours West of Stockholm, is breathtakingly raw, magical and wild.

Immerse yourself in nature, jump in the cold lake, gather around the bonfire, canoe, read, journal, nap or go for long walks in the mystical forest.

This place is a simple and stunning retreat venue, set on the most beautiful private misty lake, with a floating sauna, and an onsite library.

There is a group of volunteers that live on the land and help the management run everything behind the scenes of retreats, and this gives it a real sense of community living that always feel very special to drop into.

Thursday 15th - Sunday 18th May 2025. From £875 for a private room or bell tent and £795 for a shared twin or double.
