Our pilot weekend retreat took place this past April 2007 at the 22-acre Widcombe Grange estate situated in the Blackdown Hills of Somerset. The sold out retreat hosted eight couples as well as a panel of renowned experts and guides for the weekend. And while S&S could talk about the results of this fabulous weekend forever, we think it’s story is best left to those who participated…
'Passing through the electric gates took us into another time and place. The transformation from coming from London and landing in a secluded oasis was tremendous.' -- Tehmina
'It was like arriving at a friend’s country house. No pretense, no stress, no formality. I was chopping vegetables with the chef 30 minutes after I arrived!' -- Romy
'I learned a great deal about myself as well as my partner. That was the first chance I’ve had in a long time to just slow down and concentrate on us.' -- Tony
'Custom-blending my own oil based on my interests, fears, desires was overwhelming. It brings out every emotion and ends with a wonderfully unique little bottle of something that only I could create!' -- Sabita
'This weekend put my mind in a different place, a different space. It was a whole mass education for me on so many levels.' -- Paul
'This wasn’t hard work. The hardest part of it was making the time to go. But once you’ve done that, you won’t regret a second of it.' -- Fabrizio
'It delivered what it said it would, it awakened my senses and made me incredibly aware of my partner. I saw my partner in a whole new light.' -- Francesca
'That was the most sensual experience I have ever had with my clothes on.' -- Stephen
'I was impressed by the depth and integrity of the guides. It was fun and playful, creative and empowering: we all created something this weekend.' -- Monica
?'We’re hooked. When is part two?' -- Rob
