where women gather ‘Sleepover’ mini retreat

Date: December 12th/13th

These two luxurious days are dedicated to love, friendship, and festive joy—celebrating life in a way that leaves us feeling lighter, fulfilled, and connected. Our hope is that you'll take a little piece of this magic home with you as you enjoy your festivities this December.

Festive celebrations at Ellasfield are not about rushing, noise, or hangovers; they focus on creating moments that remain in our hearts. We gather around long wooden tables to share plant-based feasts that delight and nourish us. We immerse ourselves in sound baths and movement practices that restore our energy, enjoy the soothing warmth of a sauna, and swim in clear waters. We sit by the fire to exchange stories that connect us more deeply than we could have ever imagined.

WHERE WOMEN GATHER CIRCLES 

Where Women Gather

I created 'Where Women Gather', where you can find that little piece of sacred time in the company of women sitting in a circle and feel the power of this shared experience. Deepen your connection and trust in the healing wisdom surrounding us, Mama Cacao, Mother Earth and each other. Gathering with other like-minded women to share stories and support each other through life is an enriching and uplifting experience. Women have been gathering at Ellasfield in this way for three years; some drop in and out, and others continue have been in circle with me for 30 months!

What will you experience?

During our time together, we create a sacred container through ceremony. We drink Cacao, share with each other, and listen deeply with no interruption. We enjoy music inspired by the moment and learn practices to soothe the nervous system; we rest by the fireside, craft intentions for ourselves and Mother Earth, and experience shamanic healing wisdom through drum, feather, and voice to clear blocked energies and bring a sense of lightness and balance.

Whether you gather with friends for a private cacao and ceremony experience or join our monthly women's circles nestled in the West Sussex countryside, my promise is authenticity, integrity, and the opportunity to experience the following:

  • Deepen your connection with Cacao through Cacao Ceremonies

  • Reconnect with Mother Earth and her cycles, the energy of the moon, the elements, and the medicine wheel.

  • Join a transformative journey of self-discovery and a deep remembering of your inner wise woman

  • Restorative Yoga and Guided Meditation

  • Fire Ceremony with Intention Setting

  • Sharing and Deep Listening in Community

Join me in creating a long-forgotten sisterhood that once was the lifeblood of our well-being, where deep listening, hugs, and honesty fostered personal growth and a sense of wholeness. This is an opportunity to unfold a deep inner knowing that we are never alone, always connected to each other and to something greater that guides us forward with love.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

  • A wonderful experience. Soul searching, mood enhancing and a positive life changing perspective. Kim and Lee are exceptional hosts, fabulous food and accommodation, no detail overlooked and all homemade. The love and care that went into the whole experience could not have been more evident. They are truly passionate about what they do and delight in sharing it with others. The facilities are fabulous - sauna, wood fired hot tub and pond were just perfect as was our sleeping accommodation. All exceptionally clean and well looked after. We came away refreshed, relaxed and revitalised. Highly recommended.

  • We had the most incredible private retreat at Ellasfield for my sister-in-law’s “zen” do. Kim was great at getting everything organised and communicated before that day, so we were confident it was going to be a beautiful day. Even so, it far exceeded all of our expectations - from the cacao ceremony, yoga, countryside spa, lunch (the homemade salads were huge & delicious!) and intention setting. The little touches really made it too, like the little treats to take away. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone - thank you Kim & Lee!

    Lauren

  • Had a great experience today at Ellasfield. The host Kim was really friendly and welcoming when I arrived. Made me feel at easy throughout the ceremony. It was very much needed at this stage in my life, it gave me a real insight to me and direction I need to take. The cacao was truly amazing and an experience you can’t describe with words. As nothing could explain what comes from the ceremony more than living it in person. I highly recommend every part of it, great location, great experience for mind body and soul. But over all, the host truly makes it all magical. Don’t hesitate in booking, you will not regret it, the only thing you will regret is, not doing it sooner.
