Adjoining Nature Reserve

The lane down to Little Acorn

Views along the local Coastal Path

The beauty of  'Little Acorn' is how isolated it feels from the rest of the world.

Tucked down a half mile long track, in a rare pocket of temperate rainforest next to a wildlife reserve.

Being just a couple of miles from the surfing beaches of West Cornwall it explains why it took us nearly four years to find just the right place.
​
Little Acorn is a simple spot where there really is space to stop doing and to simply be for a while. The nearest street light is over a mile away and the nearest proper road is at least half a mile.


Groups are intentionally small with a maximum of five participants and once you arrive people tend not to leave again until the retreat ends.

• Included are all meals, with as much of the produce as possible grown organically on site in our polytunnel geodesic dome and greenhouse.

• starting and ending each day with an hour long guided meditation or breathwork practice - either outside or in our own meditation room looking over the woodland.
• gentle yoga and Qi Gong based movement practices outside if the weather allows
• daily walks along footpaths to local beaches for a swim or a sit​

With all of our retreats, whether standard or silent retreat,  there is zero pressure and the choice is yours - join us for any or none of the practices, eat out if you prefer, or simply come and enjoy the quiet of the surrounding area. If you want to spend the rest of the day simply reflecting in stillness, swinging in a hammock or wandering, then there are plenty of spots in our woodland, the rarely visited nature reserve next door or the nearby coast.


​During the day we suggest, that to unwind to a slower pace of life you don't drive. Of course the choice is totally yours, but we are fortunate to be connected to the surrounding area by miles of footpaths from outside our doorstep, including beaches such as  'Trevellas Cove' with its stunning snorkelling and low tide lagoons; the nearby village of St Agnes with its health food shops, cafes and surfing beaches and the seafront town of Perranporth - all within an hour or so walk through fields and footpaths
