Thera-Sea

Truly special time on this retreat with Katy, Adam and Mark. Beautiful off-grid setting with plenty of fodder for body and soul with a fabulous bunch of like-minded people of all different ages and backgrounds. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants to take time out and check in on the stuff that matters.

A brilliant experience, it exceeded all my expectations. Spiritually and physically it was just the tonic I needed, after some stressful times. Katy and her team are fantastic, the retreat offers just enough structure but not too much, just the right amount of self reflection Vs grounding hands-on experiences in nature. The setting is beautiful. The food is hearty and delicious. The group therapy workshops were great as were the morning plunges into the river and the bushcraft sessions. Loved it.

I decided to book with Thera-Sea, after reading a great article in the Evening Standard. Safe to say, it's one of the best decisions I've ever made! Feeling a bit nervous going on my own, but once I'd met Katy, her team and the rest of our group, they couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly. The group activities were great fun, from paddle boarding, making our own campfires and wild swimming to name a few! All fantastic experiences, accompanied by Katy and her teams great knowledge of all things wellness and wilderness! Thank you Katy, Mark and Stuart (not forgetting Bruce!) for a great experience. If you are thinking of booking this weekend, rest assured you will not regret it if you give it a go!

I visited recently, after taking a gamble and pre-booking my trip in February. I'd wanted to go the previous year but a number of the dates were either booked out or cancelled due to issues with the changing covid regulations. As it came close to the trip last-minute anxiety hit me and I almost didn't go, so am glad they don't offer refunds, as this pushed me to go. I am ecstatic that I went in the end, as the experience was life changing The workshops led by Katy, have stayed with me and weeks later I'm following through with goals I made for my health, wellbeing and interaction with friends and family. The site itself is very hilly and works those leg muscles, which is fine if you're super fit or an unfit person like me, it's still manageable, so don't let that worry you. Mark our activities expert led some really interesting workshops in fire building, axe throwing, den building and paddle boarding. The cottage is right next to the River Fal, which is the perfect location for your wild swimming sessions. It was pure joy to jump in that water day or night, made you feel alive Stuart our chef, cooked the most outstanding healthy meals and definately ignited my passion for cooking and wanting to know more abourt foraging. Cooking and chatting around the camp fire took me back to memories of my Girl Guide days and it was so peaceful, fun and quiet. At night you could see the stars (too much light pollution in London) and illuminated algae (didn't know this existed in the UK) in the water. I was fortunate enough to get upgraded due to some last minute cancellation and had a lovely soft and warm bed. My only issue is that the fire alarm was above my bed and I had a constant green light blinking in my face, I could have properly swapped to the other end of the bed but didn't think of that? The shower facilities are outside and lovely and hot, temperature can be adjusted and the toilets are also outside. If you're a wake-up-in-the-middle-of-the-night person like me, the toilets are within easy reach of the cottage. They send you a packing suggestion list which was great and I took warm layers, stretchy breathable material clothes and waterproofs/swimming gear and good footwear. When it came to the end of the weekend I didn't want to leave. Meeting such a fab bunch of like-minded people has been so inspiring and encourages me to keep moving forward. If you're in doubt I highly recommend taking the plunge and booking up with Katy and her team. Hopefully you'll get to meet Bruce to, who is the cutest little dog and is full of beans xxxx
