Merging Wellbeing, Food & Culture

Slow · Seasonal · Soulful

Join our Nourish and Nurture retreat in Andalusia!

At an exclusive, secluded home in Ronda, aptly described by the owners as “Discreet luxury in a secret country house in Andalusia.”

The retreat will include workshops, private dinners, tastings, and behind-the-scenes tours at olive mills and artisanal wine producers + yoga and mindful journaling. Learn how to cook nourishing dishes combined with local traditional cuisine, and how sustainable food and drink production work in harmony with the local environment.

We are a small community of collaborators who love to move, explore, and nourish ourselves from the inside out.
Our retreat programmes are carefully designed to create enough space for rest, relaxation, exploring, and creating meaningful connections.

The Retreat - La Cazalla

Originally a finca (farm/ranch), the retreat stands in the midst of a scenic valley, just a 10-minute drive from the historical town of Ronda.

The main house and surrounding buildings blend naturally into the landscape, having been built around the natural rock, which has been aesthetically incorporated into the living areas of the main house.

This gorgeous retreat is fully equipped with all the comforts, including those extra little touches that will make you feel at home.

Set within a thirteen-acre garden, the retreat offers countless enchanting spots to explore. Enjoy the Nature trail, relax on terrace lounge chairs, dine under a pergola, read in cosy nooks, or visit the 12th-century water cistern.

For a memorable view, take a drink to the old threshing circle to watch the sunset. There are plenty of sun loungers, seats, and tables, shaded areas, and cold freshwater showers fed straight from the finca’s spring.

At the core of all retreats is a deep connection between food, community and well being. We find absolute joy in crafting nourishing recipes using ingredients sourced from local farms and sustainable food producers.
