Retreats
Nestled into the Andalucian Foothills, overlooking sweeping valleys and the beautiful national park is a little treasure called Finca El Cerrillo. I first heard about it about 15 years ago in a newspaper review and immediately thought what a wonderful place it would be for a retreat! Being either pregnant and/or up-to my eyeballs in nappies, I settled for a newsletter subscription and a dream that one day I just might get to sit on the Finca's terrace, G&T in hand...
...11 years ago, as another newsletter landed in my inbox, I hit reply and within a few days Finca El Cerrillo's wonderful owners, Sue and Gordon had sent me an invitation to come and stay.
Since that time I have taken several groups to La Finca, from small private groups and in the last few years, occupying all 14 rooms. Each time I go I discover more and more why Finca El Cerillo is the perfect place for you to find a little bit of renewed vigour, health and happiness!
After a 3 year break, due to the Pandemic we are now looking to return to the Finca 2nd - 5th July, 2022 and do hope that you will be able to join us.
My colleagues Lynn and Delilah are not able to join me this year but this means I get to share with you a lot more of my work which Im very excited about!
