DWIB Mini Retreat at Dartmoor Reach Alpaca and Glamping Farm

Step away from the noise, the notifications, and the never-ending to-do list, and spend a nourishing day in the Devon countryside with Devon Women in Business.

A restorative retreat for women in business in Devon

Our much-loved DWIB Mini Retreat returns to the beautiful Dartmoor Reach Alpaca and Glamping Farm near Bovey Tracey, and this year we’re making it bigger, more spacious, and even more restorative.

Set among rolling fields, friendly alpacas, and thoughtfully designed glamping spaces, this extended mini retreat is designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and enjoy meaningful conversations with like-minded women, without the pressure of traditional networking.

What to expect on the day

Throughout the day, you’ll enjoy:

  • Relaxed, unhurried networking in a calm and welcoming environment
  • Time to meet and wander with the alpacas (all 16 of them, and yes, they are as charming as you’d hope)
  • A delicious buffet-style lunch made using home-grown and home-reared produce where possible
  • Time to explore the unique glamping huts and converted double-decker bus
  • A restorative guided meditation and visualisation led by our host, Natalie Hyson
  • Optional 15-minute taster therapy sessions offered by selected DWIB members

New for this year
A small number of DWIB therapists will be offering 15-minute taster sessions throughout the retreat. These sessions are designed to complement the relaxed pace of the day and may include therapies such as massage, reflexology, reiki, sound therapy, breathwork, or coaching.

👉 If you’re a therapist and would love to offer a taster session, please get in touch to register your interest. Spaces are limited to preserve the calm, spacious feel of the retreat.

If the weather permits, lunch will be enjoyed outside on the ‘sala’, making the most of this beautiful Dartmoor setting.

Who this retreat is perfect for…

This retreat is ideal if:

  • You run a business, work for yourself, or are navigating a demanding role
  • You want networking to feel human, supportive, and genuinely enjoyable
  • You’re craving time out to reset, reflect, and recharge
  • You value wellbeing, connection, and meaningful conversations
  • You would love a working day that includes fresh air, good food, and alpacas instead of back-to-back meetings

Whether you arrive full of energy or running on empty, you’ll leave feeling calmer, clearer, and more grounded.

Lunch at Dartmoor Reach Alpaca Farm

A generous buffet-style lunch will be provided, using home-grown and home-reared produce wherever possible. Expect mixed salads, fresh bread with goat’s cheese and home-reared bacon, homemade bread, sausages, smoked salmon quiche, homemade dips, picky bits, and cake for pudding. Always cake!
