A mums & daughters retreat · Seathwaite Farm · Borrowdale · Lake District
Everything is arranged before you arrive — the tent is pitched, the fire is laid, the food is ready. All you need to bring is your daughter's hand in yours. What follows is the shape of your weekend: a rhythm to settle into, not a schedule to keep up with.
A soft landing. Your tent is already up and waiting — all you do is walk in and make it yours.
Your bell tent is pre-pitched, dressed and ready — find your spot, unpack, and let your daughter explore the site while you catch your breath.
Self-guidedEvery pair together by the fire — names, where you've travelled from, one word for how you're both arriving. Warm and unhurried.
All pairsWander the field together, say hello to the fells, let your daughter choose where you go first.
UnstructuredFresh dough, your own toppings, cooked over the fire — mum and daughter building pizzas side by side before eating together under the sky.
Communal mealHot chocolate, quiet conversation, and a short du'ā together before the first night under canvas.
Spiritual
Your home for the weekend — pitched, dressed, and waiting before you arrive.
The heart of the retreat — a hike that opens conversation, an afternoon that slows it right back down.
Laid out and waiting, eaten in your own time. Fuel up — today is the big one.
Communal mealFollowing the rushing white water up through the fells, at a pace that lets every pair walk and talk together. One of Borrowdale's most beautiful routes.
Guided · All abilitiesSide-by-side walking has a way of loosening conversation that face-to-face never quite manages. It's why this hike sits at the centre of the weekend, not just the itinerary.
Eaten with a view, part-way up the ghyll. Simple and satisfying.
Communal mealBack down to the field. Time to change, rest tired legs, and have a cup of tea before the afternoon begins.
Free timePaints, water, and the fells stretched out in front of you both. No skill needed — just presence, and something to show for the afternoon.
All materials providedBadminton, football and archery, set up and ready — pairs against pairs, or just for fun.
Sport · All agesHalal BBQ as the sun drops behind the valley. The best of the day's conversation gathers around the fire.
Communal mealA quiet moment to write a letter to each other — sealed, and opened together on the last morning.
Optional
"And it is He who created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon."
Sūrah al-Anbiyā · 21:33An easy walk, then the whole valley to yourselves — before a gentle goodbye.
A relaxed morning meal — and the chance to open the letters you wrote to each other the night before.
Communal mealA gentle, low-level wander through Borrowdale — easy pace, open to every age and ability.
Guided · GentleThe rest of the morning is yours. Swim in the river, dip in the plunge pools, or stay on the field for badminton, football and archery — whatever your pair fancies.
Swim · Play · ExploreUnhurried, warm, and shared — the last table of the weekend.
Communal mealAll pairs together one last time. One word each, a small keepsake to take home, and a closing du'ā.
All pairsPack down and head home, carrying the weekend with you — insha'Allah until next time.
We pack down for you
All meals are halal and included — breakfast, lunch, dinner and campfire snacks. Let us know about allergies when you book.
A dedicated prayer space is available throughout, with qibla marked. The day's rhythm flexes gently around prayer times.
Sour Milk Ghyll and the valley walk are both paced for mums and daughters together — no hiking experience needed.
Swimming and paddling are optional and always at your own pace — bring modest swimwear if you'd like to take the plunge.
Mobile signal is limited in the valley — this is part of the point. We gently encourage putting phones away for the weekend.
This is the Lake District — pack for all conditions. We run whatever the weather, and the fells are beautiful in the rain too.
"And We have enjoined upon man goodness to his parents."
Sūrah al-Ankabūt · 29:8
This weekend is a small, deliberate space carved out of busy lives — for the two of you to remember each other again, away from everything that usually pulls you in different directions. We can't wait to welcome you both to the valley.
