Ericeira Spring Retreat
Are you looking to reconnect, slow down, and nurture your spirit? Join us for a rejuvenating retreat on Portugal’s serene west coast at Quinta dos Raposeiros, a charming country house set amidst 10 hectares of green spaces and pine woodlands. Over five transformative days, expect a carefully curated experience that nurtures physical rejuvenation, emotional clarity, and a sense of community. Mornings begin with energising and grounding yoga in a rooftop studio overlooking the ocean valley, leading into nature walks through lush green spaces and nourishing vegetarian meals crafted from local ingredients.
Afternoons bring activities like Stand-Up Paddle-boarding, sound healing, Pranayama workshops, and optional massage therapy, inviting you to connect deeply with nature and yourself. With ample time to rest, savour the beauty around you, and connect with others, you’ll leave with renewed energy, lasting connections, and a refreshed sense of balance and vitality.
