The Haven - BRAND NEW for 2026

​Empowerment is one of our Core Values at Wilder Ways. We are passionate about creating welcoming safe spaces where people can thrive; helping you to embark on a journey that’s about the internal and personal as much as the physical.  Whether you are looking for a boost in your horsemanship or riding, an opportunity to reflect on your own self-worth or to overcome a specific trauma, time with nature and horses is a great way to simply reconnect with yourself, feel mindful, recharge, regroup and relax.
 
As a species, horses are inherently authentic, emotionally gymnastic and self-aware, making them fantastic teachers.  We also believe our herd are happier and healthier as a result of the parts they have played in humanship journeys.  Both aspects demonstrate a powerful and meaningful feedback loop between our two species.

Nikki & Cara invite you to experiences feedback loop first hand.  Join our Wilder Ways family in a tranquil and beautiful setting where you can feel utterly nurtured and empowered by the ‘Call of the Wild and the Will of the Herd’.

These experiences are available to all, regardless of your prior experience with horses and will be tailored to your individual needs and aspirations.

Adventure Summary
​Feel the warmth on the sun on your face.  Breathe.  Chicks’ cheep hungrily from the barn rafters above you.  You can hear lambs in the distance calling for their mums.  A horse nickers low and gentle.  Breathe.  You smell horse as you extend your hand and feel hot breath investigate you.  Whiskers tickle you and then you stroke that velvety nose.  Peace becomes you.
 
Life is overwhelming.  It is easy to overlook the little things and forget to embrace the joyful moments that feed our soul.  You are worthy of these moments.  Make the space.
 
Let us take care of you.  Enter the bosom of the Wilder Ways herd.  Feel held and be heard so that you can be at peace and grow.
​

Itinerary
Day 1:  Arrive at the farm (check in from 4pm) in time to settle before dinner at 7pm. Relax into your surroundings, let nature embrace you and start to relax and feel nurtured.  Enjoy an evening with your hosts Cara & Nikki and like-minded folk.  Share what feels good and otherwise snuggle the dogs and enjoy the tales of others with an open heart.
​
Day 2-4:  Each day we will breakfast at 8.30am, lunch at 1pm and have dinner at 7pm.  The rest of the itinerary will be hand built by Cara & Nikki each day.  Activities will include lots of time in nature, with the farm animals and the whole herd as well as interaction with individual horses and space with yourself.  Let us worry about the what, where and when: - all will be tailored to what is right for your individual journey.  You just need to cast yourself adrift on the current, be present and embrace your vulnerability.  In return, we promise you a transformative experience that will impact you far beyond this adventure.
 
Day 5:  Sadly, the end has come, it’s departure time after breakfast. Bid farewell to this tranquil place and your trusted steed. But hold this space in your heart to go forth with a new found vigour, with light-heartedness and a smile to brighten any day.
 
This immersive nurturing 3 days will leave you feeling joyful, empowered and totally in love with herd life.
