Our retreats are a place of self love. They are a place to find the answers to your deepest questions, a place to dream, to connect, to learn, to grow and to nourish oneself.

Where the Seed Was Planted…

Meadowsweet Retreat began in the wild mountains of Tuscany, where Anya Lily and her family were called to create a space rooted in healing, stillness, and deep connection to the Earth. Inspired by Anya’s own upbringing, shaped by the herbal wisdom of her mother in rural Somerset and the spiritual depth of her father’s yoga practice in India. Meadowsweet was born from the meeting of these two worlds: the grounded magic of nature and the inner path of peace.

What started as a intimate, soulful gathering place in Tuscany has since grown into a global offering. Today, Meadowsweet provides spaces of healing, growth, and creativity around the world, in partnership with like-hearted, land-based sanctuaries. Each retreat is designed to nourish the body, mind, and spirit, inviting guests to slow down, reconnect, and rediscover their place in the natural world.

As a family, the Meadowsweet team continues to cultivate not only the land, but a way of life — one centered on seasonal rhythms, community, and reverence for the natural world. From workshops in wildcrafting, permaculture, and homesteading to mornings in movement, song and meditation, every offering is an invitation to return to ourselves, and to grow from that place.

Voices from the Meadow

“The retreat in Tuscany was pure magic! Before the retreat I felt rather drained and out of balance - now after the retreat I feel so blissed, energised and fully relaxed. The retreat was a colourful bouquet of healing for body, soul, mind and spirit. We were dancing, laughing, singing, crying, eating, hugging, LIVING how life is supposed to be. I now feel so loved, empowered and beautiful in my own feminine essence. Thank you forever!”
