Self Care and Wellness Retreats

Facilitated by Debbi & Dani, Mother and Daughter Team

Cornwall Retreats

Rainbow Retreats in Cornwall

Friday 28th (2pm) ~ Sunday 30th (2pm) JUNE 2024

Come and join us for a beautiful nourishing and nurturing retreat, featuring soundbaths, soothing meditations, nature bathing, and gentle movement.

All your needs will be met by Debbi and Dani, a Mum & daughter duo, who will help you to press pause on the hecticness of everyday life to fully relax and recharge. 

At our 1890 County House Retreat, with far reaching views over Bodmin Moor, there are beautiful places to just sit and be, hear the sounds of nature, and breathe in the countryside air.

There will be an opportunity for some gentle outdoor natural sound healing around our garden firepit, and also inside healings in our converted barn and sound healing haven.

Across the weekend, you can also take inspiration through reading, with a carefully chosen book to bring food for thought for future life decisions. There will also be a gentle stretch class and group meditation to bring stillness and reflection time.

This retreat is all about you and your needs: a time for you to just press pause and find some much needed "you time."

We have four places available on the retreat, with rooms allocated on a first come first served basis. There is a very large shared bathroom for sole guest use.

We look forward to looking after you.

“I’ve just returned from the rainbow retreat feeling relaxed, nourished and blissed out. The weekend far surpassed the high hopes I had for it. Debbi and Dani had put together a retreat packed with thought to every detail from the warmest welcome, scrumptious plentiful, nutritious food, a carefully thought out relaxed program of gentle activity options, beautiful rooms with extra comforts, little surprise gifts all in a comfortable warm fascinating quirky house steeped in history and love. Dani and Debbi gave time, kindness and care in abundance to each individual to ensure we were all getting the most out of our stay.
We started as strangers but quickly relaxed and formed friendships and supported each other through our individual transformations. I can’t recommend this retreat highly enough ,
Thankyou to all who made it so special.”

“I arrived at Polhilsa House a broken, stressed and poorly person. I left a completely different one. I cannot believe how much this weekend did for me. It far exceeded my expectations and I’m so glad I went. From the moment I set foot in the door, I was enveloped in love and warmth. Debbi and Dani could not do enough for us and had thought of everything. I had the most beautiful room, so warm and cosy with lovely little touches such a gorgeous roses and a hot water bottle. We never went hungry, so much choice and lots of nourishing food and Super Trev’s soups were absolutely delicious!
Debi’s sound and relaxation sessions were something else, so relaxing and comforting and really brought out so many emotions and realisations in me. I spent much of the weekend in tears which was so therapeutic and cathartic. I could write an entire essay on the weekend but I would say it did me so much good and I’ll certainly be booking again. We were given lots of fabulous little gifts which I will cherish and I’ve learned an awful lot about myself and how relaxing is so important. I’ve also realised what’s been missing in my life and I’ve been given some useful tools to look after myself better. Thank you Debi, Dani, Trev and the beautiful ladies I met at the weekend. You’re all a true inspiration and there’s so much love in that house. If you are looking for a fantastic healing and nurturing retreat filled with love then look no further.💗💗💗💗”

“I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for the incredible experience I had this past weekend at the first ‘Rainbow Dove Retreat’. It's not easy to put into words the transformational effect it had on my well-being, but I'll do my best to explain the essence of the magick that unfolded for me during these three wonderful days with you.

The moment I arrived, I was hugged by an atmosphere of tranquillity and warmth from you and Dani. The serene surroundings of Polhilsa House provided the perfect backdrop for the self care and soul-nurturing activities I experienced throughout the retreat. The attention to detail in every aspect of the retreat was greatly thought out, from the very comfortable accommodation, to the nourishing meals and plentiful food that was crafted with both care and love from you both. The extra detail didn’t go unnoticed either, it was received gratefully with much love and appreciation.

Each day the diverse range of workshops and activities catered to all aspects of self-care, from gentle yoga sessions that awakened our body to another mindfulness practice, to a soul nourishing walk in the woods connecting to nature and the flow (provided by the river). The knowledgeable and skillfull way you both gently guided us through the daily workshops/activities really encouraged introspection and self-reflection, strengthening the close connection with ourselves and the like-minded souls sharing this journey.

What truly set this retreat apart for me was the sense of community that blossomed among the ladies. We shared laughter, heartfelt conversations, and the mutual support that has created a bond that made the entire experience even more amazing. It felt like we were not just attendees, but a close-knit family, supporting each other on our unique paths to self-discovery and well-being…it really did!

Thank you both very much for creating an amazingly wonderful space where I could immerse myself in a journey of self-care and leave feeling replenished, inspired, and ready to face the world with newfound vigour.

I wholeheartedly recommend your retreat to anyone seeking a transformative and deeply enriching experience. I am immensely grateful for the impact it will continue to have on my life.”

Your Hosts… Mother and Daughter

Debbi & Dani

Debbi and Dani are a mum and daughter team, coming together to offer a weekend retreat space to rest, relax and restore.

​Debbi, retired from nursing in 2009 following a ‘burnout’ and a diagnosis of ME. She used complementary to heal herself and now teaches the methods that made her well. She is the Founder and Principle Teacher of Suara Sound Academy established in 2011 specialising in Tuning Fork Sound Healing Courses, Retreats, and Workshops.

 Dani, 37, is a Mum of twin toddlers and works as an Assistant Principal in an inner London Secondary school.  

Dani’s story: 

Whilst I love my life and feel incredibly lucky to have my husband, children, family and a rewarding job, I realised how overwhelming and impossible it all can feel at times, trying to spin multiple plates at once and keep up with the pace and pressure of life. 

I realised just how important it is to find time to be able to put self-care first, in order to find calmness and peace within yourself to balance life responsibilities and commitments. For me, to detach, detox and reset every once in a while, allocating time to focus on my mental and physical wellbeing, provides me with the clarity and energy I need to go on to try and be my best self for those around me.

We are keen to share this space for self-care and wellness with others and can’t wait for you to join us for some rest, relaxation and restoration.
