We are delighted to bring you a series of three-day Mindfulness Walking retreats.

 

We currently have two fabulous locations:

  • Woolhanger Manor, a large organic hill farm in the heart of Exmoor National Park in North Devon

  • The Colloquy, a spacious yet cosy country house in stunning rural Herefordshire


Upcoming retreats in 2026:​

  • Sunday 8 March - Wednesday 11 March at Woolhanger Manor: fully booked

  • Thursday 8 October - Sunday 11 October at Woolhanger Manor: spaces available

 

With only eight guests per retreat, you will have plenty of personal attention learning all the elements of Mindfulness Walking with academy founder Jo Dunne. There will be daily opportunities to put what you have learnt into practice on walks through breathtaking countryside, from straightforward sessions to more challenging hikes. 

 

Jo will be working alongside holistic practitioner and food enthusiast Sybil Watson, who creates wonderfully nutritious menus using locally sourced produce wherever possible.

​

In North Devon we walk on the stunning South West Coast Path, Exmoor, and the beautiful woodlands and gardens surrounding the manor.

​

In Herefordshire we take in magnificent scenery, exploring ancient woodland, sections of Offa's Dyke and the 1,000 acres of farmland surrounding the property.

 

There will be lots of time for relaxation and to reset and reflect in the spacious, beautifully appointed accommodation, with a chance to practise yoga, enjoy a sauna or book a massage.
