Holistic retreats
in Greece

You are invited to join Kate for a wellbeing retreat in Epidavros, Greece with Acupuncture, Qi Gong, Yoga, Meditation and exploration in a stunning natural environment

13th September - 20th September 2025

reflect & renew on a holistic retreat in greece

Kate launched the Greece retreat following the challenging times in the pandemic, and the recognition that individuals needed the opportunity to step outside of their day to day remit in order to make space to reflect. Kate chose the beautiful Greek mainland following many fruitful visits for retreats and courses for herself, and she came to love the quiet peace that this undiscovered part of Greece offers.

The retreats are located on the north east of the Peloponnese, just a 2 hour drive from Athens. It is located in ancient Epidavros, a centre of historical importance in this country and well known for its healing benefits. Stay at the quiet, family run hotel set directly on the sea and surrounded by citrus trees and olive groves. Kate has personally designed each meal to reflect Chinese Medicine seasonal eating customs to nourish your body.

This week was deeply relaxing. I had time to think about improvements and adjustments that I can make to my lifestyle and I had a real interest in the theory of Chinese Medicine that was delivered in a really digestible way. The best bit was the joy and the fun and lots of laughter that we had with a wonderful group of people.

Your Hosts

Kate, Josephine and Danai



I have felt a sense of peace and relaxation. I haven’t laughed so much in years! I have also learned what it means to ‘be present’. I have an understanding that the food we eat and making time for ourselves really does make us feel better, healthier, happier and calmer. Thank you so much, it has been perfection.

Activities DURING THE WEEK

 

Nature Hike

During the middle part of the week we will take a scenic coastal hike along to a quiet bay. This is a very beautiful way of connecting with the nature of the coast that you will be staying on. We will rest, relax and eat while enjoying the beautiful views of the Greek coastline and the sea.

Visit the Ancient Theatre of Epidavros

This theatre is a short road trip away and is well worth visiting. The site is regarded as the best preserved ancient theatre in Greece and boasts a fine structure and perfect acoustics. It hosts plays during the summer months and the site is surrounded by a verdant green landscape. The theatre is a situated near to the ancient sanctuary of Asklepios, which is a celebrated healing centre of the classical world.

 

Taverna Lunch

We will take a walk along the beach to the other end of the bay where we will be welcomed by Dimitri who will offer us a delicious taverna lunch experience in his authentic Greek restaurant. He also sells olives, honey and other local products that he farms - a complete Greek experience.

Dinner in Epidavros Port

On one evening, the group will visit the local town for a local dinner at the Epidavros Old Port. The food is fresh and delicious and guests enjoy seeing the local town.
