Sara is Campervan Retreat's creator, mum of 3 and a passionate Campervan owner.

 

"I create Wellbeing Retreats that offer a chance to escape 'normal life' enabling you to spend time in your own beloved Campervans with other like minded souls. 

 

My journey to this point started more than 21 years ago when I left the Fire Service to pursue a new career in the Health and Wellness sector. Over the years, I developed a deep love for Yoga and as a result a more rounded approach to Health and Fitness emerged, focusing more on wellness and happiness, rather than just 'fitness'. I became a Health and Lifestyle Coach and qualified as a Yoga teacher to enable me to support my clients further. Three gorgeous kids later, I was ready for a change of direction. We wanted more adventures as a family so I managed to persuade my husband, Neil, into investing in a VW Campervan (the third and by far the best I have owned!) This is when 'Bruno' the campervan joined our family in February 2022. 

 

The idea of Campervan Retreats came to me when I was daydreaming about how wonderful it would be to escape on my own with Bruno - a weekend with no screaming kids, no wet dog, no husband, no demands, just selfcare time! I then started to wonder how many other women out there with Campervans on their driveways would benefit from doing the same. 

​

I began to spread the word, to find out if this was something that might have wings and.......the rest, as they say, 'is history!'  The CVR community is growing day by day with over 200 women attending so far, 5600 women connecting via social media and lots of excitement!

​

Sadly in January 2024, at the age of 49 I was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer and have since undergone treatment. 

Breast cancer took so much from me but it also gave me clarity!

​

I now run Campervan Retreats full time and embrace every moment. Its fabuolus planning events, travelling across the country and bringing amazing women together. I get to sprinkle campervan magic across the UK.  

​

​I would love you to come along and experience one of the retreats, this community is warm, kind, unique and incredibly supportive.

​

Lots of love, 

Sara
