"The retreat was curated beautifully and I am grateful for all the yoga and meditation classes, workshops, connections, stories and love that was shared during the week. Everything was presented well and with intention. I could really feel that. We built an amazing community! Friendships blossomed and we opened our hearts to one another. I loved how open and honest Sophie was during the retreat and am humbled to call her my mentor and friend post retreat. Thank you for this wildly unforgettable experience!"

Location

Casas na Ferraria is a unique place, about half an hour drive south of Lisbon, where the air is filled with the smell of eucalyptus trees. Strolls through pine trees and cork oaks will make you forget that you are just kilometres away from Lisbon. The owner, a passionate architect, has renovated the typically Portuguese farm buildings but has conserved their very beautiful structures and architectural proportions.

Where you will sleep

Choose to take a private room or share with a friend.  If you don't have someone to come on the retreat with, please don't worry, we will pair you up with someone. 

Casas na Ferraria are designed to accommodate the participants all year long and in all seasons. They are cool in the Summer and very comfortable in the Winter due to its floor heating system. The materials used are natural, mostly environmental-friendly clay and reclaimed wood.  All our rooms are en-suite.

The Food

Food is a hugely important part of any of our retreats.  Chef Ricardo is the most incredible chef we have come across over the many retreats we have run!  A mainly vegetarian menu, with a fish option on one of the evenings.  We can cater to all dietary requirements and we promise you will never go hungry!

"The retreat has literally changed my life in ways I previously could never have imagined. I have learnt so much from Sophie and intend to continue the positivity and empowerment which she creates. It was truly an inspirational experience and I couldn’t have enjoyed it more, or got more out of the it."
