WTF is a Mother Wild Retreat?

Dear  Mama Bird,

Join us for a six-day escapade at the beautiful Vericoco Retreat on the south coast of the idyllic island of Kefalonia, Greece.

 

Kefalonia is in the Ionian region, famous for its crystal-clear turquoise seas and pristine sandy beaches.


This retreat was specifically designed for busy mothers wanting to actualize their potential (while laying on beautiful beaches.)

Expect inspiration, insight. (And moussaka.)

Time and space to be with yourself.

Self-reflection. Relaxation.
(And Greek salad.)

Connection with other like-minded mamas.
(And Greek yogurt with local honey.)


Come calm your nervous system, cultivate your inner vitality,
and nurture your own sense of wellbeing.
(With a sprinkle of oregano.)

About Where We’ll Be…

Vericoco is an oasis of calm set amid olive groves with spectacular views of the mighty Mount Aenos and the ocean.

At night, we’ll gather around the long alfresco tables next to the outside kitchen to socialize underneath the stars.

the retreat location:

BOAT TRIP- We plan an optional boat trip one afternoon to visit hidden coves along the shoreline and to explore the natural wonders of the Ionian Sea, home of rare turtles and dolphins. 

HAMMOCK TIME OR ACTIVITIES- There will be time to walk into the pretty village of Spartia or simply relax doing not much at all.

You can also enjoy sea kayaking, Greek cooking classes, an olive press tour, wine tasting, horse riding and hiking tours.

You can also indulge in holistic treatments and/or massages or take some time to read a book in a hammock all afternoon – the choice is yours.

POOL- The large, lush grounds are centered around a pink-terracotta villa, dotted with fruit tree groves and a serene 11-meter swimming pool.

YOGA- We’ll do sunrise yoga at the Poolside Yoga Shala overlooking the Ionian Sea.

For evening yoga before dinner, Yin Yoga practice will be in the secret garden, aka Olive Grove Shala- encircled by olive trees.

WILD FERMENTED WINE- Vericoco, is the perfect place to pause, relax, recharge and reconnect with nature, possibly with a glass of their own wild fermented white wine called ‘a pure Kefalonian diva.’ Dead serious.

THERE IS NO LOVE AS SINCERE AS THAT OF FOOD.

We may pretend otherwise but everything will revolve around food.

We will have two delicious, locally sourced home-cooked authentic Greek cuisine vegetarian meals per day.

This is actually what Vericoco’s food looks like.

Getting to the Retreat Location

BEACHES - Just a short hike down hill from Vericoco are two beaches; both with trademark Kefalonian crystal-clear shallow waters.

Spartia beach offers the advantage of being able to grab a drink or snack.

Thermanti beach offers the advantage of being secluded as it is only accessible by foot making it a pretty magical place.

  • Vericoco is 15 mins by taxi from the closest airport Kefalonia International airport (EFL). Check direct flights from London (4 hrs) or plan a layover in Athens. Many airlines fly direct from Europe including British Airways, TUI, EasyJet and RyanAir.

Q&As

  • Inspiring sheroes in need of some vitamin R: to rest, refresh, recharge, rejuvenate, recalibrate, reassess, reprioritize, and retreat.

  • Because the food will be delicious, the nature divine, and the post retreat effects are better than napping.

  • We recommend you to come solo, to take this as a time to disconnect from them and to reconnect with you.

    And to eat. Pray. Love.

  • This will be an intimate retreat.

    Don’t miss claiming your spot.

    We can’t wait to share this peaceful and special place with you.
