“I love the location and the peace of Campfire. I love the freedom to move around and interact with everyone -staff included. There is a beautiful ‘living in community’ feel about it but I can retreat when I need. I love the Labyrinth and the regular Campfire evening.. The garden spaces are very beautiful and encourage wonderful birdlife…The staff were incredibly welcoming, hospitable and helpful at every turn. Many thanks again to Campfire in the Heart-a much loved place.”
