Sleeping arrangements

Accommodation is indoors in shared bunk-bed spaces. You may bring a tent if you prefer. The islands have kitchen, dining and bathroom facilities; you still need your own bedding, towels and toiletries.

Planning around your needs

Please contact the Retreat team about dietary requirements, access needs, workshop materials or questions about what to bring. Read the Code of Conduct before the weekend.
