Your home from home,
in the heart of North Devon

Every writer needs a space to be creative: an idyllic writing retreat, a cosy room, no interruptions and all meals, hot drinks and snacks provided. Like-minded company on most of our Monday-Friday year round writers retreats, and frequent yoga weeks, including a daily session. No chores, no daily routine to distract you, and the luxury of feeling looked after from lunch on your day of arrival to lunch on departure day.

We also welcome you if you need some time out for any other reason – or just to relax and get a good night’s sleep. We’re offering complete respite from life’s distractions. A writers retreat, deep in the heart of the beautiful North Devon UK countryside, that space is waiting for you. This is your time. We guarantee it.

Our facilities

We offer quiet, comfortable rooms in a large, traditional 1600s thatched house, with a roaring woodburner and a beautiful courtyard and walled garden. You can be as solitary or as sociable as you choose. And as a working writer, I am happy to offer constructive criticism on your work. The village pub is just 50 yards from the front door and there are many delightful walks all around. You can take our resident labrador, Daisy out too.

But not everyone who visits Retreats for You is here to write. Some paint, read, tackle a work project, or simply relax and recuperate.

– Themed Events –

We hold regular events including themed writing, yoga and photography to name a few, plus we also have regular non-writers weeks all throughout the year. Click on an event to view more information and place a booking.
