The Wellbeing House is a free 7-day retreat for those who want to enhance their mental health and wellbeing. Our beautiful and peaceful environment provides a place of sanctuary, where people can receive support to help them stabilise themselves, and prevent a deterioration in their mental health and wellbeing.
