Wonderful and relaxing retreat
I went on a Wellbeing Retreat to Harmony House, it was fantastic a very warm welcome from Adele when I arrived, the wonderful food (Adele even made me a vegan chocolate cake because I’m allergic to eggs!). The mindfulness and guided mediation were very relaxing. Harmony House is a beautiful building and my room and my bed were very comfortable. Would absolutely do this again.
Outstandingly restorative
From the moment of my booking, I felt in safe hands. Adele goes the extra mile to care for her clients. Harmony House itself is a beautiful big old house. My room Poppy was a good size but still retained a cosy feel with the warm furnishings; a chair to sit on and read in, soft blankets, a dorma window to let in the evening light. The wellbeing retreat I booked on included all meals. The food was absolutely delicious! We were given structured activities to help us relax but also had plenty of free time factored in to give us space to process our thoughts. On the Sunday we visited the nearby Pool Bridge Farm where I braved the lilies to enjoy a lovely open air swim.
All in all, this was a weekend I would thoroughly recommend. I felt listened to as an individual and cared for pastorally. You can also book to stay at the B&B independently which I’m certain my husband and I will do in the future. He’s even inspired to maybe attend a retreat; my description of the mindful breathing exercises had him wanting some time out for himself too!!! Thank you Adele (and your helpers Rebecca and Heather!)
