Retreat story
About the retreat
Because the greatest gift we can give each other is our time, love and connection.
This Christmas, step away from the festive rush and join us for a beautiful afternoon of Christmas magic, mindfulness and making precious memories together.
Christmas is such a special time for children, but sometimes the most meaningful gifts aren’t found underneath the Christmas tree.
They’re found in the little moments. The laughter, the cuddles, the kind words and simply spending time together.
Christmas Wishes is a heartwarming mother and daughter retreat, bringing you together for an afternoon of love, connection, creativity and relaxation in our cosy, Christmas-inspired Mayan Sanctuary.
A Magical Christmas Welcome – Settle into our cosy sanctuary, surrounded by twinkling lights, soft blankets and a little Christmas magic.
The Gift of Kind Words – A beautiful mother-and-daughter bonding experience, sharing what you love about each other, your favourite memories and what makes your relationship so special.
A Christmas Letter of Love – Write or draw a heartfelt Christmas letter to each other, filled with love, gratitude and special wishes. Seal your letters in envelopes to take home and open together on Christmas Eve.
Christmas Star Breathing – A fun and gentle mindfulness activity, introducing children to calming breathing techniques.
A Magical Christmas Meditation – Journey together into an enchanted winter woodland through a beautiful guided story, exploring kindness, love and gratitude.
Christmas Sound Healing – Snuggle up together beneath your blankets and enjoy a gentle, relaxing crystal singing bowl soundbath.
Hot Chocolate & Christmas Goodies – Finish our afternoon with delicious hot chocolate and festive treats, enjoying a little more quality time together.
This isn’t just another Christmas activity.
It’s an opportunity to slow down, reconnect and create beautiful memories that will last long after the Christmas decorations come down.
Because sometimes, the greatest Christmas gifts aren’t wrapped.
£30 per mother & daughter pair, plus the usual booking fee. Suitable for girls aged 5–11 years. One ticket covers one mum and one daughter; please select the number of pairs attending, not the number of people.
All letter-writing materials, hot chocolate and Christmas treats are included. Mums will stay and enjoy the entire experience alongside their daughters.
Spaces are limited to just 9 mother-and-daughter pairs, creating a lovely, intimate experience.
Let’s make some Christmas memories that will stay in their little hearts forever.
