Faraway Day: Summer
Saturday 15 August 2026
Curated by Arts for Health and Wellbeing CIC
A small group wellbeing experience at Faraway Follies
Some days are simply too important to rush.
Faraway Days invite you to step away from the pace of everyday life and spend a day immersed in nature, stillness and gentle wellbeing.
Set high in the Welsh hills at Faraway Follies, each experience has been thoughtfully curated to restore the body, calm the mind and create space to simply breathe.
Surrounded by panoramic mountain views, birdsong, open skies and the gentle rhythm of the natural world, you'll enjoy a day where every detail has been considered.
From breathwork and restorative yoga to sound, conversation, tea and time simply to wander, Faraway Days are an invitation to slow down and reconnect with what matters most.
Everything has been thoughtfully designed so that you can simply arrive, relax and enjoy the day.

The Faraway Days Philosophy
Faraway Days were created from a simple belief.
When people are given beautiful surroundings, kind company, time to slow down and permission to simply be, wellbeing has the opportunity to flourish.
We believe that small moments of rest, connection and reflection can make a meaningful difference.
Each Faraway Day has been thoughtfully curated with care, nature and human connection at its heart.
Come exactly as you are.
Leave feeling a little more like yourself.

A few helpful notes
The sessions are suitable for beginners, and there is no expectation to participate beyond what feels comfortable for you. You are always welcome to take a break, spend time quietly in nature or simply enjoy the surroundings.
Much of the day takes place in our beautiful covered outdoor space, allowing you to enjoy the fresh air while remaining sheltered from the weather.
There is plenty of free parking available on site.
If you have any accessibility requirements, dietary needs or questions before the day, please get in touch. We'll always do our best to help.
