Friend to the End

WELLNESS WEEKENDS

A restorative retreat for groups navigating life’s transitions

A Gentle Sanctuary for Up to Five Guests

Nestled within my 16th-century cottage in Chiddingfold, these Wellness Weekends offer a peaceful haven for groups of friends or family who are facing a period of change — whether through illness, bereavement, divorce, or any emotional transition, or maybe just for fun!

Your group will have the cottage entirely to yourselves, with exclusive use of three cosy bedrooms and a warm, homely space to rest, reconnect and breathe again. There are two double bedrooms and one single, to share or not.

I remain quietly on site to prepare breakfast, offer support when needed, and hold a calm, steady presence throughout your stay.

Who This Weekend Is For

These weekends are designed for small groups of 3 to 5 people who want to:

  • Spend meaningful time together

  • Support a loved one through a life transition

  • Mark a change in their story

  • Reflect, restore and heal gently

  • Create memories in a peaceful, nurturing setting

Whether your journey involves illness, caregiving, divorce, loss, or simply needing space to regroup, you will be welcomed with compassion and care.

Creative & Uplifting Workshops

Each weekend can include any of the following, shaped around your group’s wishes:

  • Memory-making activities

  • Clay modelling

  • Guided journalling

  • Meditation or quiet reflection

  • Gentle grounding practices

  • Woodland or countryside walks

  • Optional extra gym and swim pass at a local club, Passes are available at an additional cost.

Activities are offered gently and without pressure — you can join as much or as little as you wish.

Nourishing Vegetarian Food

I provide wholesome vegetarian meals and breakfast each morning, prepared with care to support both body and heart.

Time Together, Time Apart

Your group will have plenty of freedom to relax, talk, rest, create, walk or simply sit quietly.
I am nearby for support, but the space is truly yours to inhabit in your own way.
