Location
We will be staying in a luxury cottage farm retreat in Hurdlow. The famous spa town of Buxton is a short 10-minute drive from Hurdlow Grange. The Peak District offers enchanting villages, historic towns such as Ashbourne and Bakewell and glorious ever-changing landscapes are all close by. 15 Parking spaces are available but we encourage you to car-share.
Travel
You are responsible for arranging your own transport to and from the location. We encourage people to car share wherever possible.
Please see https://www.peakvenues.co.uk/venues/2/hurdlow-grange#location for more detailed directions.
Payment
The lowest price of the retreat is £480 each for shared occupancy of up to 2 people in a room, alternatively, 4 monthly payments of £140 can be made. This includes food, accommodation, classes, a guided walk, a workshop, and course materials. Most rooms are en-suite, but not all.
No discounts or refunds will be given. We are a non-profit collective, intending to provide affordable regular quality retreats, so all of our retreats are aimed to be kept at a cost price only.
Venue
All of the rooms are twin or double rooms.
We shall eat together, pray, and have our classes in the main communal areas. We have a dedicated team of catering staff to cook for us with vegan options.
There will be plenty of indoor and outdoor space to have some quiet time and plenty of space to seclude from any crowds.
There are 2 x 7kw smart electric vehicle charging points but we cannot guarantee they will work.
Children
The retreat is open to adults only. We are not able to cater for any children this time.
Cancellation
In the unlikely event that we have to cancel the retreat for any reason, you will receive a full refund or a transfer to another retreat. We are not able to cover additional travel expenses nor are we responsible for any consequential expenses incurred as a result of any cancellation. If you cancel for any reason, we cannot guarantee a refund. We encourage you to try and find someone else to take your space and if we have a waiting list, we will most certainly offer your space to others.
Couples
Heritage (non-convert) Muslim spouses can come as we believe that partners will equally benefit from the experience and the learning together. They must register separately.

Don’t Just Take Our Word for It…
Wallahi, I had the best experience since becoming Muslim. When Imran said to give feedback on any shortcomings I was actually shocked by the question. I know you have to ask, but this retreat exceeded anything I could have imagined. I only wish it could have been longer 😔.
I’ve had time in the car to think, and honestly this weekend has been phenomenal so thank you!
Steph

Gabriella
I felt so comfortable with anyone. and I felt like I can truly be who I am and come as I am. thank you so much for creating that safe space. I could have definitely recharged my spiritual battery. it was lovely to make new friends & to be able to connect with like-minded people. alhamdulillah.
