7 Day Flowing With The Elements,
Faro, Portugal Retreat
Join Nicole & Tilly in our exciting new retreat home!
Originally built in 1898, lovingly restored in 2015, it is defined by its spectacular uninterrupted 360° views of the Serra do Caldeirão mountains, an area protected for its natural beauty and famous Portuguese cork trees.
Nothing to hear but the birds and the wind.
Nothing to do but restore and relax the body, mind and soul.
The seclusion of the retreat isolated in the mountains yet only 30 minutes from Faro airport make it the perfect place for retreating.
We will have exclusive use of the whole property including a yoga shala with 12 foot sliding window doors that transform the space into an open air studio with front row sunrise seats and mountain views, an infinity pool with rocks and waterfall, a large roof terrace for yoga, meditation and star gazing, a quiet meditation snug and library room, and all the communal areas of the house.
Whether it be your own luxurious double room with uber comfy super-king size bed or your own secluded outdoor yurt or shepherd’s hut with impeccable views; We have a range of accommodation types.
Each interior has been tastefully designed and decorated with simple locally sourced materials. All outdoor accommodations have been built by hand using a combination of recycled wood reclaimed from the old ruins left beforehand and local materials.
Arrive: Saturday 9th August from 5pm
Depart: Friday 15th August from 10.30am
