A once-in-a-lifetime journey into enchantment, wonder & ancient remembering.
A once-in-a-lifetime journey into enchantment, wonder, & ancient remembering.
There comes a moment in life when something ancient stirs inside us, a longing to remember who we are beneath the noise of modern life. A call to return to the land. To our roots. To the way our ancestors once lived in close relationship with soil, sea, stone, and sky.
This pilgrimage is for that call.
For eight days, we journey through Cornwall and Glastonbury - lands shaped by a mythic imagination, ritual practices, and a deep connection to nature. These are places where people once lived in rhythm with the seasons, listened to the land as teacher, and passed down their wisdom through story, song, and ritual.
This is an invitation to awaken that ancient wisdom in our bodies, and experience it anew in communion with the living Earth.
Cornwall: Wild Coast, Living Earth
We immerse ourselves in Cornwall’s legendary coastline, officially designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and widely regarded as one of the most unspoiled and breathtaking coastlines in the world.
Here, turquoise waters meet dramatic cliffs. Sea caves echo with old songs. Ancient paths wrap around the headlands where the Celtic saints once walked, where fairies are still said to dwell, and where the land carries memory. Memories that can be awoken.
This is a land of enchantment and wonder.
A land where stories live within the stones.
Where the veil is thin.
Where the Otherworld is close.
We walk the old ways.
We sing to the stones.
We practise yoga by the ocean.
We swim in wild secluded coves.
We listen for the spirit-of-place speaking in response.
For surely, something inside us remembers.
Our home for the pilgrimage - Trenarren House
We will be staying at Trenarren House, a beautiful Grade II listed Georgian manor house and the former residence of renowned Cornish writer A. L. Rowse.
The house is surrounded by 2 acres of private gardens, with sea views over St Austell Bay, and a short walk leading you to a secluded beach and the South West Coast Path. This beautiful coastal landscape is rich with secret coves, marine woodland, and the remains of an Iron Age cliff fort. It is a place where sea, sky, and land converge.
Trenarren House will be our home and our sanctuary.
The estate includes:
• Comfortable accommodation
• Nourishing home-cooked meals
• Sauna for deep restoration
• Quiet spaces for journaling and reflection
Each morning, we gather.
Each evening we return to share stories, song, and moments of silence.
Cornwall lies in the far west of Britain, a land shaped by stories of fairies and mermaids, giants and dragons. These are the heartlands of Arthurian myth, and a place in which magic and mysticism still holds sway. Long before churches or the written word, people here learned from the big book of the wild, taking their direction from wind, water, fire, and stone.
We will follow pilgrimage routes, and song-lines, following in the footsteps of those who came before us, listening as they once did.
This journey is about connecting with place, reconnecting with the ancient human relationship to land, history, and myth.
Myth, Story & Living Legend
We will be joined by Adam Skerrett, storyteller, writer, and walk-guide, who will lead us on myth-walks through the landscapes we explore.
As we walk, Adam shares the living stories of the land, including:
• Celtic myths and legends
• Miraculous stories of saints and beasts
• Wonder tales of mermaids and sea-spirits
• Teachings from the old fairy-faith of Cornwall
These are stories which emanate from the earth, they are part of the ecology of the land; of cliffs, of wells, of coves, and pathways.
We will walk the storied-landscape and hear these tales told, in the places where they say they happened.
Told in the oral tradition
We will feel them in our bodies.
And let them resonate in the soul-ground of our being.
Yoga, Song & Nature Practice
Most of our yoga takes place outdoors, on beaches, headlands, and open moorland. Practices are accessible, grounding, and fluid, designed to open the body, calm the nervous system, and attune us to nature.
We weave in Sanskrit mantra - ancient sounds meet ancient lands.
We sing in caves.
We chant beside sacred springs.
We let our voices travel across cliffs and water.
This becomes a dialogue.
We offer sound.
We listen for the land’s response.
Wild Swimming
We swim in the clear waters of the Celtic Sea, feeling salt on skin, breath in body, aliveness in every cell.
These swims are gentle and optional, yet deeply liberating, reconnecting us to instinct, courage, and joy.
Nidra
Yoga Nidra is a way of walking you home. On this pilgrimage, our rest is not a retreat from the world, but a deep descent into the heart of it. Guided by the whispers of our nidra guides Celtic lineage and the ancient pulse of the Goddess and the Cornish land, the space will be held for you to lay your bones upon the granite and simply be.
In the mist-thin places of the Cornish coast, we will enter the sacred dreaming of the land. Nidra is a bridge, a threshold where your spirit meets the sea and your roots find the dark, nourishing earth. Together, we will thaw the modern frost and listen for the song of the Ancestors in the salt air. This is a journey of cellular remembering; a return to the well of Sourced rest that has been waiting for you since the beginning of time.
Walking with the Ancestors
Sacred Journeys include:
Tintagle & Merlins Cave
We journey to Tintagel Castle, dramatically perched above the sea and woven with the legends of King Arthur and Merlin.
Here we explore Arthurian myth and ancient pilgrimage routes. Low tide gives access to Merlin’s Cave, where the ocean echoes within the cavern. And we sit, breathe, and offer soft chant.
Holy Well & Coastal Medicine Walk
We visit Holywell Bay, and a sacred spring hidden inside a sea cave, which has long been known as a place of healing.
We enter the cave on a falling tide, to commune with the waters, to chant, and to offer our intentions. From here, we take a medicine walk along the cliff-top paths, listening deeply for the land to open itself to us.
The journey will lead us around a stretch of coastline known for seabirds and seals, and to the stunning sandy beaches of Porth Joke.
Conditions permitting, we will swim here together - sea, sky, body, breath.
The Sacred Sites of Bodmin Moor
Bodmin Moor is a wild landscape home to a wealth of sacred sites and natural beauty. We will spend a full day exploring these special places.
We will visit:
• The Hurlers stone circles
• Spectacular granite rock formations
• Wide, open moorland
• Wild river and waterfalls
The stone circles and natural rock formations in this rugged landscape have been visited and venerated for thousands of years. The Mary and Michael energy-line courses through the stone circles, connecting them to many other sacred sites, and onwards to Glastonbury.
We walk slowly.
Take time to sit with the stones.
In deep listening.
Day 7: Glastonbury — The Heart of Avalon
On the final day of our pilgrimage, we travel together to Glastonbury, once a centre for medieval pilgrimage, the place is still steeped in myth and mystery, from stories of fairy kingdoms, to the Arthurian quest for the Holy Grail.
