Samhain Retreat: Release, Renew, Refresh

30 October - 2 November, 2025 : Scotland

Come celebrate the end and the beginning of the traditional Celtic New Year with us!

Honouring the seasonal cycle of summer’s departure and winter’s entrance, we acknowledge what has naturally ended and prepare for new beginnings in our own lives. This time of the “thinning of the veil” is ideal for connecting with the energy of warrior women of the past to guide us to a more fulfilling future.

Let us embrace the darkening days to re-spark the light within, connecting to our authentic selves and honouring each other guided by mutual trust. This retreat is designed to be a transformative time out for you.
Embrace the inner strength that Samhain calls forth.

Your stay will include:

  • Warm welcome

  • Samhain rituals and renewing shadow work

  • Group coaching (with one-on-one option)

  • Guided meditations and mindfulness

  • Restful and reflective self-care practices

  • At least one wellbeing session with healing expert

  • Sensory walks in beautiful surroundings

  • Journalling and relaxing

  • Nourishing breakfasts, lunches, and dinners as well as hot drinks and cake (please let us know any dietary allergies)
