Join Us In The Devonshire Countryside
Berrynarbor, North Devon | June 24–28, 2026
If your inner Magician led for four days, what alchemy might happen?
At the height of the light, when the veil is thin and the land hums with life, we gather.
This is not about becoming someone new. It is about remembering who you already are — and discovering what transforms when you meet yourself with curiosity instead of force.
What This Retreat Is
Over four days, we move through a living framework:
Somatic practice — pausing the mental noise so the body can speak first. Posture, sensation, breath. The body reveals the archetype before the mind names it.
IFS (parts work) — meeting the inner protector, the ruler, the exiles. Not to fix them, but to witness them and give each part within us space to breathe.
Ritual & archetype — calling in the energy of Merlin: the magician, the alchemist, the trickster. We ask what transformation looks like when it is played with, not performed.
This is for the ones who are tired of healing as hard work. Who suspect there is a lighter, more honest way to meet themselves.
A private estate in Berrynarbor, North Devon. Gardens, pool, tennis courts, and the kind of quiet that lets you hear your own thoughts.
We are also planning a visit to Glastonbury — fitting ground for the work we are doing.
The container is small and Intentional. Five guests only. Each person has their own luxury room.
You will not be lost in a crowd. You will be held in a field. By expert guides and facilitators there to guide and hold the space as we move in new landscapes both internally and in the real world.
The Land & Venue
What Will You Experience & Receive?
Cozy Lodging & Meals
We’ll be staying in a beautiful, comfortable setting designed for rest and ease. Everything is arranged so you can relax, settle in, and be cared for — without having to think about the details.
Expert Facilitation & Rituals
Through somatic practice, parts work, and ritual, you'll be guided into experiences that are grounded, alive, and unscripted. No performance. No pressure to arrive already healed. Just a field where your system can feel safe enough to play.
Playful & Relaxed Energy
This is a space where seriousness can soften. There is no rush to become, fix, or prove anything — only an invitation to enjoy the magic of being present, together.
Working with the Energy of Merlin
Merlin is not held as a distant archetype or authority.
In this space, Merlin is a companion, a mirror, and a guide who meets you exactly where you are.His magic is found in the in-between moments by the fire, in shared stories, in quiet walks through the land, and in the gentle remembering of what matters most. Working with Merlin invited us to playfully engage with the parts within us and ask, “how can I make my life and transformation more enjoyable?”
Over four nights in the Devon countryside, we move at a human pace. Mornings are spacious. Unhurried. Time to wander the gardens, sit with the land, or simply be.
Then we bring in the work: somatic exploration, parts work, shared ritual. Not scheduled to the minute. Held by the field.
Evenings, we gather — a simple anchor ritual, then campfire, quiet, conversation. Space to be with others without performing for them.
At the heart of it all: a Midsummer ritual. The fire, the question, the moment when the light is longest and something in you might finally be seen.
Everything is an invitation. Nothing is compulsory. Your sovereign magic unfolds at its own pace.
This Is For You If
You’ve been walking a spiritual path for some time.
You’re drawn to myth, magic, and mystery.
Your practice feels serious, heavy, or disconnected from joy.
You want something real, alive, and quietly powerful.
It is a meeting place for seekers who haven’t lost faith — only their spark.
