Did you know that moss first appeared on Earth 450 million years ago? At this time of year it is so vibrant and extremely beautiful. And there is a lot of it in Fernworthy Forest!

Into the Quiet: A women's winter retreat on Dartmoor
9 spaces now taken - only 1 remaining!
I'm thrilled to be offering the first Wild Calm Dartmoor winter retreat in January.
I'm looking for a small group of women who would enjoy getting away for a winter weekend — walking across the moor, visiting stone circles and ancient Bronze Age remains, enjoying good food and good company, and having some space to slow down.
There will be cosy evenings by the fire, nourishing food and a sauna beside the River Dart, with plenty of time to relax and enjoy being somewhere a little quieter.
Although I've organised weekend experiences like this before, this is the first Wild Calm Dartmoor retreat, so I'm offering places at introductory prices from £300 per person. Early bird prices available until the end of October.

My favourite kind of city break involves long hikes and funky rocks 😆
I took my 6 year old wild camping for the first time on Saturday and it was magic! ✨️ We had a beautiful sunset, a bright full moon, misty morning light and several rainbows. Oh and my daughter was chuffed to eat her first ever Pot Noodle 😂 A win all round!

Upcoming events for October and November now available!
As the days grow shorter and autumn settles over the moor, join me for a series of walks exploring Dartmoor in a different way.
🌙 Dartmoor After Dark
Explore ancient Bronze Age settlements, stone circles and cists beneath the night sky. A chance to experience Dartmoor after dark, enjoy the quiet and perhaps spend some time stargazing.
🌿 Contemplative Silent Walks
Step away from the noise and busyness of everyday life. Walk quietly alongside others, reconnect with yourself and immerse yourself in the landscapes of Dartmoor. No pressure to talk, just space to slow down, notice more and enjoy being outdoors.
📅 October & November dates now available.
Whether you're drawn to the mystery of Dartmoor after dark or the stillness of a silent walk, I'd love to welcome you.

A glorious circular walk stopping at Crazywell Pool for a swim, Hingston Hill stone row and stone circle, 3 stone crosses and Nun's Cross Farm.
Can't wait to do it again!

A day out last week wandering round the beautiful Bellever area - up Bellever Tor, through the forest and across the stepping stones whilst visiting lots of Bronze Age remains on the way. Someone had placed some bright sunflowers on a cist which were very lovely to see 🌻🌻🌻
The light on yesterday's sunset walk was just stunning. Dartmoor is just golden at this time of year 💛

Last day of the summer holidays today and we had a beautiful afternoon swimming in the Dart and clambering over Dartmoor. A very lovely way to end the holidays ❤️
Join me for a peaceful evening walk on Dartmoor near Postbridge.
We'll spend around 2-3 hours exploring the moor at an unhurried pace, with plenty of time to take in the landscape, enjoy some quiet and simply step away from the busyness of everyday life.
We’ll explore the Bronze Age settlement of Grimspound and visit Bennett’s Cross. No pressure to walk fast or fill the silence - just good company, fresh air and space to slow down.
It'll be a maximum of 6 people to keep the group small.
Suitable for anyone who enjoys walking and wants to experience Dartmoor in a quiet, relaxed way.
Please note that sunset is at 7.39pm so you will need a torch for walking back as it gets dark.
The ground is uneven and rough in places so you will need to be comfortable with this. We will walk around 4-5km. If you’ve got any questions about the walk then please do contact me and I’ll be happy to chat with you about it.
I thought this friendly guy deserved a post of his own after he befriended me on a recent walk 💗
I love seeing the ponies running free and wild on Dartmoor - it's just magic to watch ✨️
When was the last time you spent several hours without feeling the need to talk?
Our silent walking days offer the chance to step away from the noise and busyness of everyday life and simply walk.
We'll spend much of the day walking quietly together across Dartmoor, taking time to notice the landscape, listen to the sounds around us and perhaps notice what's going on inside us too.
There's no expectation to be silent every minute — we'll talk when we need to, and there'll be time to chat during breaks.
But for much of the day, we'll let the silence do the talking.
