Wild Moon Camp
Woman’s Voice Camp
26 - 30 August 2026
Dartmoor National Park, Devon
Wild Moon returns for the 4th year…
Step into the ancient wilds of Dartmoor National Park and let the full moon guide you as you reconnect with the land, with other women and with your own voice. Together, we’ll move, sing, drum, and dance in circles on the land and around the fire, weaving laughter, song, and our longings into a shared celebration of earth-rooted womanhood. With movement, voice and quiet reflection, this small, intimate retreat offers a welcoming space to play, create, connect, and simply be yourself beneath the magic of the moon.
What to expect
Guided journeys to awaken and empower your authentic voice
Workshops in co-creative circle singing and Collaborative Vocal Improvisation
Morning movement explorations

Crafting around the fire
Ceremony with the full moon - singing, drumming and dancing around the fire
A welcoming sanctuary for creativity, fun and connection to yourself, the wild and a gorgeous group of women!
The focal point of our gathering is the central fire in the White Deer Lodge, an ancient feeling, cosy roundhouse. Our activities weave out from here and onto the surrounding land which is a 63 acre mosaic of ecologically rich habitats; including conifer and native woodland, wetland and wildflower glades. This magical site is committed to re-wilding of land and people, with particular focus on keystone species including beavers. There will be ample opportunities to explore and spend time immersed in this beautiful landscape and to visit the beaver sanctuary.
