THE CREATION OF THE ARK B&B

The ARK B&B is the vision of a couple of friends who came together with a common goal, that manifested with relative ease, when we called in the unique talents amongst the local community.

A truly co-creative project that has braided together the soul gifts of many. Pioneered, overseen and supported by Jan Tize, we have been witness to how wonderful it is to work together in community to create something that gives back to an ever growing network of like minded souls.

The project was driven by..

..OUR CALLING TO GATHER & CO-CREATE.

To create spaces that are Sanctuaries for all to enjoy.

We want to create Sacred Spaces in Nature that help you realign with the Earth’s rhythm whilst you feel held and nourished.

We want to create spaces that can connect people. Share talents and gifts. Heal and grow together in a supported way .

It is from this energetic space that we will ultimately grow as a community, co-create and birth new projects.

Meet your hosts of Sacred Space

Rebecca & Shane have spent the past 5 years travelling the world hosting & creating retreats & spaces that invoke the Sacred.

They curate experiences that invite surrender, connection and remembering. They believe that this is the new luxury of our times.

TO SURRENDER, REMEMBER & RE-CONNECT TO YOUR DIVINE ESSENCE.
