You are invited to the

& Renew RETREAT
16th - 18th October 2026
Summer House Retreat, Torquay
HOSTED BY TESS WILLIAMSON
Experience the magic
Are you waiting for permission to prioritise you own well-being?
Escape the every day on this all-inclusive luxury wellness retreat, exclusively for women who are looking to connect and attract the life they want!
Join us for 2 nights in the beautiful countryside of Trentham. The two lovingly appointed properties adjacent to each other share large country gardens, a haven for relaxation and tranquillity and a wonderful separate yoga and meditation space.
You’ll share this experience with a small group of amazing women, as you give yourself the time and space to reflect, connect and rise into a renewed version of you.
What dreams and passions have you pushed aside because you believed that caring for yourself wasn’t an option? Is it time to reclaim those dreams?
How would attending this retreat transform the way you approach your life and relationships? What do you envision for yourself on the other side of this experience?
If you could give your future self one piece of advice, what would it be? Is it time to invest in the well-being and happiness of that future you?
Remember, self care isn’t selfish; it’s essential. Every moment you neglect your own needs is a moment lost in the journey to becoming the best version of yourself.

why JAn jac?
The Summer House is a relaxed yet beautifully appointed coastal haven, with stunning interiors and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces. Originally the homestead of a large sheep station, it now sits overlooking expansive ocean views and is surrounded by nature. It is just minutes from the iconic Bells Beach ocean reserve, making it the perfect blend of serenity and coastal energy.
You will love the relaxed coastal vibe of Jan Juc itself. With its surf culture, nearby beaches and scenic coastal walks, the area brings a beautiful sense of calm and freedom that complements the retreat experience perfectly.
What I love most about this space is that it has been created specifically for retreats. Every detail has been considered with intention, from the warm, welcoming interiors to the dedicated yoga and movement space. It offers an ideal environment for deep rest, reflection and growth.
Being beachside adds another layer to the experience. Think mindful beach walks, time outdoors, nourishing meals prepared by our in house chef and slow moments where you can simply breathe and reconnect. The house itself supports the holistic journey I want to create, one that blends calm, connection, nature and nourishment.

If you read the above and it spoke to you, then this is calling you and I invite you!
Remember this is a time for you!
Please give yourself the time and space to truly get the most out of the experience.
I highly suggest that you also put on a proper out of office before you come away. That means no meetings, no calls and no work to be completed. It's just four days out of your entire year and the gift is truly in the space that is created when we make this time. The private and secluded accommodation in the heart of nature will also enforce a little bit of disconnecting from the outside world, to ensure that you reconnect to yourself.
Take this time to switch off, to truly be present and to really receive the opportunities that this retreat has to offer. I promise you will be grateful for this precious time.

I had such a fantastic time at Tess Williamson's Rise, Reflect, & Renew Retreat! The setting was absolutely beautiful, and from the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and supported. The yoga, breathwork, and workshops were the perfect mix for helping me relax, reflect, and reconnect with myself. What really stood out was the incredible group of women I had the privilege of sharing this experience with. Everyone brought something special to the retreat, and it felt like such a supportive, uplifting community. I left feeling completely rejuvenated, with a clearer sense of direction and a renewed sense of purpose. It was the perfect combination of self-care, reflection, and connection. I can't recommend this retreat enough - it's truly a transformative experience!
Tess's retreat was everything I didn't know I needed. The stunning location in Trentham set the perfect backdrop for three days of deep relaxation, connection, and renewal. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed into a warm, supportive group of women who made the experience even more special. The yoga classes were beautifully guided, offering the right balance of movement and stillness, while the empowering workshops left me feeling inspired and grounded. And the food-absolutely delicious! Every meal was nourishing, vibrant, and made with so much care. Beyond the schedule, what stood out most was the incredible sense of community. We laughed, shared, and supported each other in a way that felt effortless and natural. I left feeling lighter, stronger, and deeply grateful. If you're looking for a retreat that truly restores you from the inside out, this is it. -Nikki
I am so grateful I made the choice to prioritize me when deciding to join Tess at Rise, reflect, renew retreat. What a blessing it has been to meet a group of likeminded women to embark on this journey of growth and self-love with. The whole weekend has been carefully curated to meet all of my needs... time in nature, time moving my body, empowering myself through education, and nourishing my body with delicious fresh local produce. An amazing weekend, thank you to Tess, Rachel and the team for putting together an incredible experience.
This retreat was truly the Crème de la Crème of retreats. It was a luxurious and empowering event designed to provide relaxation, personal growth, and self-discovery in a beautiful, serene setting. The connections I made and the results of how it made me feel was truly something special. It was the perfect way to start the year. I'm ready for you now 2025.
