Accommodation

We have sourced a site of SSSI with lovely simple shared bed rooms! The Second Edition of SHE is in Spring time so we thought it prudent to provide adequately comfortable rooms, much more like a retreat. For 2 nights in a shared dorm style room it is just £55 for simple unheated dorms (hot water bottle refill available)  and £68 for heated dorms with lounge and kitchenette. All dorms have showers and loos attached. There will be power to charge bits and bobs too. There are still no bins on site and no cooking facilities, but this is a major step up in terms of sleeping arrangements.....at a very low cost. It was £68-85 for glamping last year, so we are really happy to upgrade everyone for less money.

BRING YOUR OWN BEDDING - sleeping bag or duvet and pillow. You will also need your own towel. 

Camping is free.

Camper vans are sadly not permitted on the new site.

What workshops can you expect?

Womb Meditations, Menstrual Wisdom, Goddess Yoga, Chakra Meditation, Women's Empowerment, Talks and Discussions, Sound Healing, Relaxations, Yin-Yang Warrior-Woman , Heart to Womb Connection, Ecstatic Dance, Embodied Dance, Chakra Dance, Eco Crafts, Cacao Ceremony and Dance, Breath Work, Restorative Yoga, Chanting, Story Telling, Yoni Painting, Yoni Steaming and more.........

You will be kept warm by movement, camp fires, urn for hot water bottles and the hot tub and sauna. ❤️💋🙏🏽🌈☀️
•Eco Spa:  Please bring a hand mit / scrubber to use before each hot tub visit. Please bring organic body wash to use in the shower.
•Showers are ECO so we have to keep them ultra short and there will be queues in the mornings. Stagger your showers throughout the day and night to avoid queues.
•Loos on site: there are plenty everywhere.

Ethos

This event is 100% accessible, vegan and single use plastic free. This is a zero waste site.

Concessions and payment plans are available: shegathering@gmail.com

We created this event so that more women could access the high quality workshops you would ordinarily find on a wellbeing retreat, but at the lower cost associated with a bespoke festival. Retreats cost from £400-550 per person and this event is £125-£200 per person. A non-residential retreat will cost £85-95 per day.....so we have really managed to make this incredibly good value for money, What joy!!

We look forward to welcoming you SISTARS.
