Recharge & Reconnect: Women’s Weekend Retreat

Join us on 25 – 27th October to escape the everyday and immerse yourself in this serene retreat designed for deep relaxation and connection with nature.

The Autumn retreat includes:

Gentle yoga – Unwind, relax and be guided by local yoga teacher and physio Caroline Foster of The Yoga Den.

Mindful walk and loch swim – Find inner peace on a guided walk with Anna of WanderWomen followed by a refreshing dip in the secluded Danskine Loch.

Flower foraging and skincare making workshop – Learn the art of flower foraging and transform nature’s bounty into beauty with a skincare making workshop with Sally of Seilich Botanicals.

Unwind in tranquility – Your luxury cottage at Carfrae Farm provides the perfect escape. Watch the sunset and panoramic views of the Lammermuir Hills from your hot tub or the outdoor sauna, relax by the log burning fire with a good book, soak in a deep bubble bath, or simply sit and listen to the birdsong on your doorstep.

Savour local produce – Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included. Local chef Verity from Take a Slice will create delicious meals for you to enjoy using fresh seasonal ingredients.

Massage – For ultimate relaxation why not treat yourself to a blissful massage in the comfort of your cottage with Evelyn from Breathe with Evelyn. Please note this is an additional extra and you will need to contact Evelyn on 07872 647011 to discuss what type of massage you would like and to book and pay separately.
