About Our Women’s Retreat

The Elemental Escape: An Intentionally CRAFTED Experience.


Think deep care and heart-rooted intention to nourish your body, mind + soul. It’s an experience where you’ll find a beautiful balance between community + peaceful solitude.

  • A group of women sitting around a wooden table, knitting and working on yarn projects in a cosy, wood-panelled room with large windows and framed artwork.

    A Sacred Circle of SISTERHOOD

    You’ll feel the power of connection as you gather with other women in sacred circle, sharing moments of vulnerability, wisdom, and laughter. Each evening, we come together around the hearth for an alcohol-free “cocktail hour,” followed by candlelit feasts prepared by our private chef.

  • A person standing on sandy shore at sunset, looking at mountains and water, with the sun low on the horizon and reflections on the water.

    Time To BREATHE And Be

    But it’s not all about community. You’ll also have heavenly stretches of time to just be. Whether it’s journaling at the altar with your oracle cards, sitting on a hillside with the wind whispering through your hair, or simply relishing the peace of your own thoughts, you’ll feel the deep nourishment of quiet moments to yourself.

  • A handwritten daily schedule on a white piece of paper, taped to a granite surface, with branches and moss above it. The schedule includes times and activities for Monday, such as wind, shoreline, sea dip, breakfast, spiral art, lunch, rest, heritage exploration, and a walk to the beach before dinner.

    FLOWING with the Elements

    Each day is guided by a flexible flow, offering you enticing options to choose from — whatever speaks to you in the moment. Forever beholden to the great forces of the elements — the wind, the rain and the tides, our flow requires us to make shifts and changes as we go, and we embrace the invitation to release the grip of a ‘schedule’ that so many of us feel ruled by in our everyday lives.

  • A table filled with various dishes including roasted vegetables, pulled meat with garnishes, and baked bread rolls, set in serving bowls and plates.

    GOURMET Food by Our Private Chef Carly

    Food is a MAIN EVENT on the Elemental Escape—we are total foodies. Whether we’re enjoying a leisurely lunch or an elevated evening meal, you can bet that there will be great food, buzzing conversation, and a lot of laughter. Every bite is made to be savoured that extra little bit more because you haven’t had to lift a finger preparing it, and you won’t be clearing a single plate—you’re officially OFF dishwasher duty.

  • Mixed salad with dark leafy greens and chickpeas in a large wooden bowl, with other bowls of colorful chopped vegetables and shredded cheese nearby.

    Locally-Sourced Ingredients + SEASONAL Menus

    As much as possible, our foods are sourced locally and in season. We’re lucky enough to have Cape Wrath Oysters a literal stone’s throw from the Lodge and venison from the surrounding Rhigolter Estate on our menu. If you’ve never been brave enough to try oysters before, you will never find them fresher than this!

  • A large, rusted metal sign with a deer head silhouette and antlers at Cape Wrath Lodge, standing on a grassy field at sunset, with a smaller sign reading "Private Residence" leaning against it.

    An All-Inclusive Experience

    At the Lodge, Lin, our housekeeper, and her husband Bob are on hand to keep everything ‘just so.’ From stacking the dishwasher, making sure your loo roll’s topped up in your ensuite, to turning down your bed in the evening (if you opt for our turndown service) — bliss!

    Neil and his team at The Durness Bus will be taking care of our transfers and travel from the airport and back, as well as on our heritage adventures while on retreat.

About Cape Wrath Lodge + Neighbouring Shore Cottage

The Elemental Escape Is Hosted In A Classic LUXURY Highland Lodge.

Full of modern comforts to keep you warm + cosy, with breathtaking views of the hills of Sutherland and the Kyle of Durness from every angle.

The Lodge is nestled in the farthest reaches of the North — just 12 miles from Cape Wrath lighthouse. While it's nearly as remote as you can get on this island, all you need to do is make your way to Inverness Airport. From there, we’ll greet you with baskets of food, warm company, and views like you’ve never ever seen before, all the way to the Lodge.

Living room with large glass sliding doors overlooking a scenic outdoor view, wooden dining table with chairs, green leather sofa, pool table, and decorative mounted fish.

Is THIS Women’s Retreat For YOU?

Listen Here, My Love, Whether Your Dream Scenario Is:


a) whiling away the afternoon in a cosy window seat with the latest Sarah J Maas - hot chocolate, blanket, log-burning stove crackling away

b) an icy dip in the North Sea followed by a dash back to our wellness area for a sauna

Or c) BOTH of those, plus a bracing walk across the moors for good measure

We’ve got you gently, softly + beautifully covered on the Elemental Escape.

What Our Retreat Guests Say

  • "Magical. Transformative (even if I can't fully describe that yet!) So connected - to the world, myself and the women. Time bending. More needed than I knew! A total treat. Inspiring. So welcome. Free. Just magical."

  • "It was amazing! The lodge and views were exactly as advertised. The food was absolutely delicious and I loved the cheeseboard/cake available in the afternoons."

  • "It has really made me pay attention to what I'm eating now that I'm back home. I really loved the pre-dinner drinks as it was so nice to try several different non-alcoholic spirits and to gather together for a pre-dinner chat and nibbles."

  • "I think that the daily flows worked really well. It was great to move the wild swimming to the Sunday while the weather was good as I would have been much less keen to join in if it had been colder/raining. I think there was a good balance between free time and planned activities."

  • "I really liked that everyone joined in with the core experiences but could then choose whether to join in with the other activities."

  • "One of the most moving moments for me was when everyone was on that hill making her own spiral and then we all sat staring at the landscape individually but also together. It wasn't rushed; it felt like we all took the time we needed and then moved on together."

  • "The fire core experience was also really powerful - love some somatic work!"

  • "Caroline was so professional but also really warm when she was doing the massage so I felt comfortable."

  • "The eye gazing was really powerful. I felt like my partner and I really saw each other in a very raw way as women. That will stay with me for a long time."

  • "It was really helpful to have time to just play/be creative/read, which I hardly ever carve out for myself in my normal life."

  • "The shared meals were such a big part of the experience - so many memorable conversations, so many 'me too' moments that I wouldn't have got with people in my normal life."

  • "It was great that the retreat was alcohol free and that we had relatively early nights; there was no expectation to stay up chatting into the early hours.

  • "It felt like a real gift to myself to take this time just for me to connect with how I wanted to spend the time and to rest and recharge. "

  • "We were given the opportunity to be edge-walkers in community which was so, so special. We were asked to step outside our comfort zones and meet our edges while being deeply supported through the other women, beautiful surroundings and amazing food. I'm so glad that I took the leap and booked!"

  • "I left feeling rested not only physically but emotionally and spiritually. As a highly sensitive person (hello, Cancer!) who picks up on every mood, energy shift, and feeling of others, it was restorative to be surrounded by raw feminine energy where we were all away from our domestic environment and responsibilities."

  • "I would absolutely recommend it to someone who needs a break, who needs genuine conversations, and who is new to women’s circles, and has never done a radical act of self care "I had a wonderful time. It was a chance to see a rare part of the world in such an up close and personal way. So much more meaningful than if i had been there on a normal holiday. It was lovely being around women who wanted to go deep, where I felt I belonged."

This Highland land, and returning to it year after year, feels interwoven with every step of growth I’ve had in my life so far. Whether I’m holding you in the circle space, or sharing with you some of my unconscious mind magic — think: trance journeys that lead you to a whole-you plane of being — I’m going to be guiding you on a dreamy adventure.

This Is Mary.

Mary Hossack, my soul sister, has been journeying to this magical land with me for my whole life — since I was a month old! — and we have, quite simply, ‘done life together’ up here in the Highlands.

Mary comes from the most incredible ancestral line of herbalists and inspirational women who held deep wisdom of the natural world, and she continues that lineage. She is also queen of LUXE ELEGANZA and knows how to ELEVATE an experience. Mary is endlessly creative, and we’re all in for a treat as she’ll be unlocking new levels of creativity in all of us.
