Here is what makes the THRIVE Retreat
different from any retreat you may
have experienced before.
Exclusive Retreat: Limited to Ten Women
A typical retreat often holds thirty to fifty women. This retreat holds ten. You receive personal attention, meaningful connection and space to breathe without feeling lost in a crowd.
Deep Support from Two Leaders All Weekend
Most retreats include multiple facilitators rotating in and out. Your entire 3 days here is guided by Monica and Jane who stay with you throughout, creating real continuity and trust.
Private En Suite Room for Every Guest
Many retreats involve shared rooms or shared bathrooms. Here, every woman enjoys her own private en suite room designed for true rest.
A Calm, Gentle, Restorative Experience
This is not a fast paced wellness getaway. It is a slow, peaceful, nurturing reset in a stunning location where you can breathe, reflect and reconnect.
Thoughtful Workshops Created for Midlife Women
Most retreats offer general wellbeing sessions. This one is tailored to the real needs of women 40 and over including habit change, personality profiling, nutrition and mindful movement.
A Beautiful Home from Home in the Hope Valley
This is not a hotel or big venue. It is a luxury home from home with cosy living spaces, terraces, views and quiet corners everywhere you turn.
Real Transformation, Not Just Time Away
You leave with tools, clarity, new habits and confidence that continue long after the weekend is over.
