Adamama Young Families Retreat 2026

Family Retreat 2026   A Weekend to Breathe, Connect & Play

 

Imagine a weekend away from the everyday rush, a place to unwind, to laugh, to connect with your little ones, your partner, yourself, community and nature.

 

Join us for our Young Families Retreat next January! A weekend designed especially for families with young children.

 

Over one glorious weekend you will have the space to:

• Let the kids explore in nature play zones and go on creative adventures, while you take part in workshops, enjoy downtime, or simply breathe.
• Come together for songs, stories, a Shabbat service, and fireside fun in a warm, community centred setting.
• Relax with full kosher catering and family friendly programming, curated for ease and connection.
• Stay your way, whether in a cosy room or pitching a tent under the stars.

 

Our 2025 Young Families Retreat sold out in record time so don’t delay, book now.
