EXPLORE THE VILLAGE
This is where the gathering begins to take shape…
where the land, the spaces,
and the rhythm of the days
begin to unfold.
This page is here to support you.
To answer the practical questions…
so you can feel clear, settled, and ready.
If you’ve already felt the call,
this simply helps you take the next step with ease.
The Land & The Village
The gathering unfolds across five interwoven fields on the land…
each holding a different part of the experience.
Everything is within walking distance,
and you are free to move between spaces as you feel called.
There is no rigid schedule…
the rhythm unfolds gently across the days.
The land is held close to nature.
Water comes from the spring on the land.
There are composting toilets, accessible toilets, and hot showers available,
along with simple spaces to wash up.
We ask each woman to move with care here.
To be mindful of your surroundings,
to keep your space tidy, and to take personal rubbish home with you.
This is a place we share…
not only with each other,
but with the land itself.
The animals, the trees, the plants, the birds —
this is their home.
To leave no trace, only love and good vibes.
You arrive into the first field…
where you are welcomed,
where names are met with faces,
and the journey begins to slow.
This is where the outside world softens…
and the village begins.
This is the Threshold….
Where You’ll Stay
Most women stay in the Deer Field,
bringing their own tents and creating a soft, shared camping space.
You are welcome to bring:
a tent, and everything you need to be comfy.
share a tent with another sister.
a live-in vehicle (allocated in the arrival field)
or choose one of the pre-arranged options.
We have a range of shared dorm style glamping, individual glamping, furnished and unfurnished options.
Then you arrive into the Hearth Field…
the social heart of the gathering.
Here you will find the kitchen, where our food is lovingly prepared, with an invitation for you to step in and support, in this space deep conversations can happen from the safety of everyday tasks.
The Nest, is our lounge full of creativity and making, and the Common-Unity space.
Spaces where life moves gently…
where food is shared,
and connection happens naturally.
Food & Nourishment
If you choose it, all meals are provided from Thursday evening through to Monday morning.
Food is prepared with care and heart within the gathering,
as part of the community kitchen — The Hearth,
held with love by Mela.
This allows you to fully arrive…
to soften,
to settle,
and to be nourished
without needing to organise or plan.
Breakfast is a generous, grounding start to the day —
granolas, oats, breads, eggs, fruits, and spreads.
Lunch is simple and fresh —
salads, proteins, breads, fermented and pickled vegetables and seasonal goodness.
Dinner is the main shared meal of the day,
eaten together in community,
and made with love.
Both vegan and meat options are available.
We honour dietary requirements where possible,
and meals are mostly dairy- and gluten-free.
Our meat is prepared separately,
so that each woman’s choices are respected.
Ingredients are seasonal, local,
and organic where we can source them.
You will also find a small coffee and cake stall on site,
offering sweet treats and warm drinks to enjoy throughout the day,
lovingly run by Kate.
You are welcome to self-cater if that feels right for you.
We simply ask that you arrive with everything you need,
as there are no facilities for refrigeration, cooking, or food storage on site.
If you do bring your own food,
please keep it within your own sealed containers
(such as a cool box),
as we are close to nature here,
and food in camping areas can attract unwanted animals onto the land.
Common-Unity Space
This is our largest shared space on the land…
a place where we gather together
throughout the days and evenings.
In the daytime,
it holds workshops, embodiment, movement, voice, and dance.
As the evening comes,
it becomes a space for storytelling,
song, celebration, and connection.
A place where we come together…
not as individuals,
but as a village.
It also offers shelter when needed…
a space where we can gather,
eat, and be together undercover,
held from the elements, if needed,
we are in an English Summer after all!
The Nest
The Nest is our space for creativity…
a place where making and mending sit alongside conversation and connection.
Here you will find workshops led by creatives and makers…
but you are just as welcome to come
to journal, to craft,
or simply to sit alongside others.
Not all healing happens in circle or ceremony.
Much of it lives in the everyday…
in the quiet moments,
in shared tasks,
in being side by side
with something in your hands.
This space is held with love by Michelle,
who brings a warmth and openness
that allows you to arrive exactly as you are.
With a view of the Tor…
Next comes the Heart Field.
Where the sacred fire burns.
Where we gather in circle.
Where ceremony, ritual, and remembering unfold.
Where wisdom is shared through experiences, workshops and journeys.
A place you will return to…
again and again.
Healing & Support
Beyond you will find The Healing Garden, a space you can come to for rest, support, and deeper care.
Here you will find practitioners offering:
massage
reiki
wellbeing sessions
one-to-one support
Our medical herbalists are also present,
offering support for first aid,
and for both physical and emotional wellbeing.
There is space to rest…
a quiet temple space for contemplation,
and a central space where healing workshops and circles take place.
You will also find the sacred spa space here…
a wood-fired yurt sauna
and cold plunge
offering a place to warm, release, and reset the body.
This space is held with love by Layla and Morgan,
bringing a gentle presence of care, calm, and deep support.
You are free to come and go as you need,
at your own pace.
Held within the softer, watery energy of the Spring Field…
this is where the water first meets the land,
and where you are gently met in return.
The Rhythm of the Gathering
There is no packed schedule.
Instead, the gathering follows a gentle rhythm…
with daily circles and shared spaces,
workshops and embodied practices,
music and evening gatherings,
and time for rest, integration, and connection.
You are free to engage
as much or as little as you feel.
This is not about doing everything…
but about finding your own way within it.
And from that place…
we gather in a way that honours choice.
Choice & Consent
Nothing here is compulsory.
You choose where you go.
You choose how you participate.
You choose when you rest.
This gathering honours personal sovereignty…
and shared responsibility.
You are trusted
to know your own yes and your own no.
If you feel called to understand more about how we gather,

REBECCA
Well, this woman tried to escape her first gathering after a tent dilemma, but we scooped her up, popped her in a warm, dry tent with other sisters, and true bonds were formed. Her background supporting women to heal from Domestic Violence makes her the most amazing woman to have with us. She supports the creation of safer spaces for women for a living, and stands in court against the baddies, and she wins!

LAURA
Then there is little ole me, the creatrix behind Sacred Sister. I have been working with women for over 30 years and if you ever told me this would be my path, after years of bullying and betrayal and never fitting in, I would have have said NO WAY….but it seemed the universe had another plan, and what I have learned is that SISTERHOOD truly is the MEDICINE to heal all wounds! With LOVE x

LAYLA
Trained as one of our circle facilitators, this heart led soul sister is on a journey. Discovering more of herself each day as she heals and opens to what this life is bringing her. Always full of life and energy, her meditations are a deep soul inspired work of art. Cancelling her own retreat this year as the FOMO got too much, I am so happy to welcome Layla back to the team for our summer gathering.

JUICE
Yes, I am so happy that they can make this gathering. Juice, like Jai, made things happen, the last time they were with us. Keen and so supportive I truly felt held by their capability. A pocket rocket of energy, turning their hand to anything, clearly so happy to be in a field! I know they will be there to help lend a hand if you need it to pop a tent up, blow up an air bed, and to welcome you home!

MICHELLE
This sister came to her first retreat with us at a time where she was moving through a huge loss. Sharing her grief with us in that time, and allowing us to hold her, was a moment in my life that I won’t ever forget. Now she shares through her own circles and connections, and I am certain some beautiful crafting moments will come out of the gathering, because this sister is a creative talent for sure!
