BEST life coaching retreats

Want a structured retreat?

You have probably looked at a number of possible retreats and wonder which is best suited to your needs.

Life coaching creates a structured approach to personal development and the weekend offers much more than a ‘chill out’ in the country (although you will experience that side of things as well).

We will approach the weekend asking you to review where you are in life, where you want to be and help you to find the best route to achieving this. When this is done in relaxed retreat conditions you can often arrive at that EUREKA moment when you can see the issues, challenges and solutions in sharp relief.

At the end of the weekend you should be able to answer the following questions:

            What makes me happy?
            What stops me being fulfilled?
            What are my options?
            Which route is best for me now?
            How do I maintain an optimistic outlook?

We offer structured sessions interspersed with plenty of time for reflection within this ideal environment.

You only have one life – live it with passion and focus.

The course will cover the following:

            Life balance analysis
            Creative goal setting
            Dealing with limiting beliefs

Whether you are looking to dip your toe into the sea of life coaching or just have a gentle look at how your life is unfolding we believe that you will find this a very fulfilling and worthwhile time.

Cerrig Llwyddion

Cerrig Llwyddion is a rural retreat designed to provide beautiful healing space.

A place of space, freedom and comfort.

Courtyard and Barn Exterior Meadow in the snow

Nestled in beautiful West Wales set in 12 acres of lush land with 6 acres of bluebell woodlands alongside the River Bargoed; there are many special areas to wander for quiet moments of contemplation or play.

River Bargoed Woods at Cerrig Llwyddion

The renovated barn is run on ecological principles; the hot water and all rooms are heated by a central thermal store, fed by the wood burner and solar panels.

Terrace Table

Rooms

It is a stone building dating from 1850 renovated with wood recycled from the original barn, burnished to bring out its former beauty. Natural paints and stains to create a soft soothing ambiance for you to indulge in, and expanses of waxed oak and coloured, floated concrete to give a zen feel of space.

The ground floor has underfloor heating below the tinted concrete floor with inlays of pebbles and agate slices. The rooms are separated with wide blond boards of Douglas fir from local trees.

The bedrooms are mostly twin bedded and so rooms will generally be shared.

Bedroom 1

The shower room has a luxurious walk in shower with a heated pebble floor and curvaceous cast concrete countertop.

The bathroom has a deep comfortable bath set in cast concrete with fossil and metal inlays. The walls are natural coloured marble plaster with a soft recessed light.
