Five nights on three thousand acres

Historic gardens, miles of woodland trails, a ten-acre lake, a top-ranked spa — and a cohort of twenty-four at one long table. This is the week, hour by unhurried hour.

(001) The Week

Six days, one arc

[Day 01 · Tue]

Arrival & intention

Arrive by late afternoon, settle into the quiet, and set the week's intention over a first dinner at the long table.

[Day 02 · Wed]

Naming what's in the way

A morning on the trails, then the first working session — putting a name, on paper, to what has been in the way.

[Day 03 · Thu]

The deep work

The fullest day of the week: guided sessions morning and afternoon, with the gardens and the spa in between.

[Day 04 · Fri]

Release, then rest

The morning's work ends in a letting-go, followed by an unhurried afternoon and an evening at the fire as the sun goes down.

[Day 05 · Sat]

The day of joy

Nothing scheduled before noon — a day built around play: the lake, the kitchen, the table, the people.

[Day 06 · Sun]

Sending

A closing circle after breakfast, a letter written to be opened at day ninety, and the drive home.
