Description
Following the incredible success of previous events, we are delighted to announce our next special Cornish Unlost Retreat; 22nd-25th September 2023.
Our last retreat exceeded all expectations. In the words of one of our guests:
‘…this has been one of the best activity weekends I have been on, ever! It was fun, friendly, interesting, active and thoroughly replenished my soul.’
We have extended and developed our programme, leaning into the ideas and requests of our Unlosters to provide you with exactly what you need, and more! Our retreat is now three nights, to allow time to walk, swim, listen, learn, reflect and relax in our beautiful location and with our friendly and joyful team.
An Unlost Retreat is a chance to make new friends; to come alone and leave as part of a community, or arrive with a friend and leave with many more. It’s an opportunity to meet like-minded women in a beautiful Cornish location.
We’ll jump into Autumn together with joy and an adventurous spirit. You need and deserve some time to prioritise you, and getting Unlost in Cornwall is the perfect, peaceful place to do just that. Please see the ‘Itinerary’ tab for a taste of what’s in store.
The Venue
Our venue is the lovely Tregedna Barns (see location map below) which is easily accessible both by road and public transport (Penmere Station on the Truro to Falmouth branch line is approx 1.5 miles away). It’s part of a working farm set in rolling green fields up a private track, connected by Cornish footpaths through meadows and trees to the coastline and beautiful beaches. You’ll arrive for a welcome on Friday early evening, and depart having made new friends and had a ball on Monday at midday.
All food and shared accommodation is included in the price of £495 (£395 for you early birds!). We would also like to offer limited places at a discounted rate for those unable to make the full fee (please email hello@gailmuller.com directly for more details).
Please note that our accommodation is shared but very comfortable. Sleeping arrangements are in very comfy, good sized bunks. Room occupancy varies from 2 bunks (1 bunk-bed) to 6 or 8 bunks (3 or 4 bunk-beds). If you are attending with a friend or two then please let us know, and we’ll endeavour to ensure you are in your own room together if we can accommodate. There are two rooms containing a 1 bunk bed (two bunks) and a double bed. There will also be very limited opportunities to camp if you would like to bring your own tent – please email me directly for information and rates.
Booking
Secure your place with a deposit in the booking section above. If you need to pay by instalments, it is possible to make this option available for you – please also contact me directly to discuss. If the retreat fills up before you get your spot with us, you’ll be automatically added to the waitlist, and given priority for our next retreat!
I can’t wait for us to get together in person! Gail x

The perfect mix for an excellent weekend.
“Gail and her team gave me the best weekend ever. This was my first retreat and I was nervous, the nerves melted away and over the weekend I was able to process some big hurdles I’m dealing with. The fire pit experience was very powerful and something I will never forget.”
Marie, Unlost Retreat Guest – Sept ’22. Read Marie’s blogpost about the September Unlost Retreat.
“Blooming awesome. An empowering and inspirational time with a group of women who started off as strangers and became friends. The stories, the emotions and the feeling of being cocooned and safe with some beautiful people has meant more than you can imagine.”
Unlost Retreat Guest – Sept ’22
“The weekend has made me laugh, cry, challenge myself, consider a big adventure, and, most of all remind me that although life is tough, and you can feel alone in your bubble, if you take a chance and trust yourself and “leap” you can achieve anything.”
Unlost Retreat Guest – Sept ’22
“I cannot recommend Gail’s retreat enough. I wish I could do them all. When people said in the beginning about meeting friends for life I wondered… now I know. Special connections, time for me, workshops to challenge and inspire and motivate… It’s not hyperbole to say it’s been life changing + I will remember it and the friends I’ve made forever. Thank you. This wasn’t just a retreat, this was connection, kindness, nourishment, growth, love, friendship.”
Unlost Retreat Guest – Sept ’22
“A fantastic weekend. Every single person was encouraging and warm and kind. No judgement ever. I know everyone was stretched out of their comfort zone in one way or another but it was in such a safe environment. Never did I imagine I would be naked (*changing swimsuit! Gail) on a Cornish beach without a care in the world. But it will be a core memory the rest of my life.”
Unlost Retreat Guest – Sept ’22
“It has been a fantastic weekend, full of friendship. laughter and fun! I came to this on my own and leaving with new friends.”
Unlost Retreat Guest – Sept ’22
“Better than I could imagine! A weekend full of kindness, openness, laughter, great memories and pushing my boundaries. I came to push through my physical pain and reconnect with my body in the outdoors. It has given me confidence in my body again and reignited my passion for adventure again. The hosts and guest speakers brought knowledge and wisdom to credit Gail and her team for bring together this beautiful community of women together.”
Unlost Retreat Guest – Sept ’22
“I think this has been one of the best activity weekends I have been on ever! It was fun, friendly, interesting, active and thoroughly replenished my soul. The food was exceptional, the women phenomenal, and the balance of activities perfect. I feel I am going home a much richer person, a little more peaceful, and definitely more nourished on all levels! Thank you Team xx”
Unlost Retreat Guest – March ’22
“This was one of the best weekends I’ve had in a long time. Wholesome, life affirming , confidence-boosting and just generally brilliant fun. Helped by lots of sun. Some truly lovely and caring outdoorsy people who I know will become my long term friends. I 100% recommend the retreat for anyone – whether you are an experienced explorer or just starting to dip your toe into the Unlost world”
Unlost Retreat Guest – March ’22
“A very well thought through retreat of like-minded women. Gail has created a supportive network. I have never been on a retreat, and to not know people around me takes me out of my comfort zone. From the moment I walked through the door on Friday to leaving on Sunday, I have loved it. We have been challenged within a safe environment. We have discovered we can surprise ourselves. All in the Cornish sunshine, in glorious settings. Gails enthusiasm for adventuring, trying new ideas and all things Cornish is infectious. Thank you x”
Sally, Unlost Retreat Guest – March ’22
“A fantastic experience for my very first retreat. Gail was generous, warm and kind and made me feel totally at ease. The setting was beautiful, the food delicious, and the range of activities perfect. It has really empowered me to do more outdoor activities alone and be who I want to be.”
Unlost Retreat Guest – March ’22
“I had such a wonderful time, meeting great people to hike, swim and chat with. Everyone who helped to organise the retreat and make things so relaxing were so lovely and helpful. The food was beyond delicious. I feel relaxed but also enthusiastic and energised after such a great weekend. Thank you so much Gail, You are wonderful! x”
Unlost Retreat Guest – March ’22
Wow! What a fantastic weekend. I feel truly blessed to make connections with so many strong amazing women while learning, doing and growing. The Unlost Retreat was so well rounded. We were well taken care of, and I’m leaving feeling uplifted and full of positivity!”
Unlost Retreat Guest – March ’22
“Having felt very lost myself, this retreat was just the reset I needed to help me walk my own path and become ‘Unlost’. Precious memories of spending time with wonderful women. Thank you, Gail – you were all amazing!!”
