About The Dreaming, Rhydoldog House
The Dreaming is an innovative and inspiring new wellness retreat centre nestled in the heart of the Elan Valley in Mid Wales. It is a place to rest, restore, be playful & connect with nature.
Held within 47 acres of woodland, waterfalls and open land. Based at Rhydoldog House, it offers a place to step away from daily routines and spend time in a quieter, land-led environment.
Retreats run throughout the year, with weekly three-night Signature Retreats and Specialist Retreats dotted throughout the year. Each stay follows a loose structure, with a changing schedule of guided sessions shaped by the landscape and time of year. Activities may include movement, creative practice, time on the land and shared rituals, alongside unstructured time to rest.
There is an emphasis on community and shared experience. Guests stay together, eat together and can take part in as much or as little of the programme as they choose. A digital detox approach, supported by limited signal and no Wi-Fi encourages people to be present and to engage more fully with their surroundings.
All stays are fully hosted, with accommodation, meals and activities included. Food is prepared on site and served communally, and the pace of the day is held by the retreat rather than individual schedules. Rooms are mostly shared but can be reserved privately if required.
At its core, The Dreaming is a space for rest, exploration and connection to the land, to others and to self offering a structured but flexible environment that supports people to slow down and take notice.
