True Nature Retreats are a place to unleash the wildness within, and come home to your inherent wholeness.

We invite you to courageously turn towards the unknown, to find compassion to befriend the big emotions, and to reclaim your wild expression.

Set in the rugged mossy landscape of Dartmoor, surrounded by rivers, forest and hill tops, this truly wild and magical land offers an opportunity to discover new levels of intimacy with nature, supporting you to step into a world of restoration and profound transformation.

 Our Approach

True Nature retreats incorporate group enquiry, embodiment practice, nature connection and ceremony. 

The combination of these potent practices enables us to work on the mental, physical, spiritual and emotional aspects of our being, for an integrated approach to personal development and healing.
