Postnatal Retreat
We invite you into the Avalon Birth House in Glastonbury for a very special wellness and recovery program, where you will have a supportive space to share your experiences of birth, be nourished with wonderful food, recover, receive massages and more.
There is a roaring fire for you to sit by, Postnatal Doulas on hand to help with everything from feeding baby to running you a bath. We are in hand to help you to find your pace as new parents and to escape the pressures of visiting family demands and challenges.
The retreat only holds space for 4, so it is a very quiet and intimate space and you can choose how much you want to interact or not. The beds are large and comfortable and there is a large and private garden too.
