“All I can say is wow! The teachers were amazing, venue was stunning, and the food … out of this world. Highly highly recommend!”


This is a truly life-transforming retreat.

Five full days that will give you an untold boost. Time and space to slow down, rest and reconnect with the very best version of you. Guidance and company to gain mastery over the mind and move toward a life you’re proud of – and excited by.

You will leave more connected. Less distracted. More empowered.

You’ll be more committed to your practice and whatever mission is yours on the road ahead. And you’ll have a lot of fun with some incredible people.

This retreat is for those who have already learnt to Ascend. Experience however – last week or last decade – is no barrier.

With Priya, Arjuna, Sumati, Amaraj and Dharma Raj

Your guides have over 100 years joint experience in practicing and teaching the art of Ascension. We love sharing this journey and are here for you, whatever you need, to make this retreat truly incredible.

 
 

“My heart is so full of love peace presence magic and joy, and it's all an inside job, including the great food.”

What to expect:

Your time with us will be super relaxing and nurturing, yet profoundly growthful.

As well as plenty of opportunity to close your eyes and Ascend, there will be twice daily meetings to guide and inspire.

In these, or one on one with us, you can ask your questions, clear up any doubts, share about your discoveries about life and moving beyond the mind (should you feel like it) or simply sit back and melt into your experience of true presence.

You can fill your time Ascending, enjoying the easy camaraderie of the others, reading, walking, maybe simply grabbing a coffee and watching the world go by.

Everything is done for you so you can truly rest and go within.

The venue:

On the edge of Swaledale, our venue is a lovely place to drop out and tune in for a few days.

Having been the home of Ascension in the UK for over 25 years, you’ll feel the peace of the house and grounds as you leave the Georgian streets of Richmond behind you.

The food by our top chef Dharma Raj is spectacular, the location amazing. As well as being able to head along the river or explore the hills, the garden is beautiful. It really is wonderful for resting in.

We recommend packing walking or running gear, perhaps even a swimsuit for an enlivening dip, journals to write in, and/or just a comfy blanket to really take advantage of your time to close your eyes, switch off and go within.

 

“The days were magical. They were filled with teachings, ascending, chatting and laughing, walking, swimming, yoga… plus I HAVE to mention the food! My goodness. We were so spoiled.”


Details:

Saturday 19th September (official start is 10am) – Wednesday 23rd September 2026 (4pm finish).

In Richmond, North Yorkshire – accommodation is available night before and night after, if you wish.

We have two room options:

a). Shared room at the venue, or b). Your own individual ensuite accommodation nearby.

Sharing is a wonderful chance to make some deep connections and lasting friendships. It makes a whole new dimension to your retreat. However, we get not everyone wants to share, so the option to stay nearby is a good one.

If you’re interested in this off-site option:

The price includes everything (all meals, everything!) except for the price of your off-site room.

Local rates start at £70-£80/night (depending on spec) so you can look to pay £280-£320+ extra (£675-£715+ in all). If you communicate directly, your host may give you a discount for a longer stay and the fact you won’t need breakfast (because our breakfast will be the best you’ve ever had. True!).

Richmond is very small and easy to get around. You’ll be close by and still feel like part of the retreat, but have your own space.

The address is Cravengate, DL104ED to aid in your search.

More Praise:

New friends made, silence explored, experiences shared, great food eaten, log fire burning, cosy and comfortable. As soon as I entered, time appeared to stop and the magic began.

The ascending room was filled with stillness peace and presence like never before, my heart was so full of love and beauty of the divine in each and everyone of us, it brought a tear to my eye.

I loved my time — days filled with relaxation and delicious food. I came away knowing in my heart that the practice makes my life simpler.
