Frequently Asked Questions

What is A Spanish Experience?

A Spanish Experience is a thoughtfully curated retreat in Andalucía, designed for guests who want to discover Spain through culture, history, and carefully considered experiences.

It combines beautiful accommodation, authentic excursions, shared meals, and unhurried time to enjoy Spain in a way that feels both enriching and relaxed.

Where does the retreat take place?

The retreat is hosted at a historic Andalusian palacio in southern Spain, within easy reach of destinations such as Seville and Córdoba.

The palacio offers private en-suite bedrooms, peaceful shared spaces, courtyards, and areas designed for rest and connection.

When is the retreat?

 Our first retreat takes place from 19–25 October 2026.

Who is this retreat for?

 This retreat is ideal for:


  • Physically active people


  • Solo travellers and couples
     
  • Guests aged 40+ (though all adults are welcome)
     
  • Those who enjoy culture, history, food, and beautiful places
     
  • People who value thoughtful organisation without rigid schedules.

Is this a group retreat?

Yes. A Spanish Experience is a small-group retreat.

Group sizes are intentionally limited to ensure a relaxed, personal atmosphere while still allowing space for privacy and independence.

Do I need to speak Spanish?

No. All excursions and activities are conducted in English, and your hosts are there to ensure you feel comfortable at all times.

You’re welcome to practise Spanish if you wish, but there are no formal language lessons.

What is included in the retreat?

Your retreat includes:

  • Accommodation in a private en-suite room (or shared option, if chosen)
     
  • Daily breakfast
     
  • Carefully selected lunches and dinners, including a special farewell meal
     
  • Private guided excursions to key cultural destinations
     
  • All group transportation during scheduled excursions


  • Airport transfers from and to the Palacio
     
  • On-site hosting and support throughout the retreat
     

Full details are outlined on the What to Expect and Meals pages.

What is not included?

  •  Flights to and from Spain
     
  • Travel insurance (required)
     
  • Personal expenses and optional activities outside the itinerary
     

We are happy to advise on flights and travel planning if needed.

What is the pace of the retreat?

The pace is intentionally relaxed.


Mornings are unhurried, with time to enjoy breakfast and the palacio before excursions. Days are structured but not rigid, allowing for rest, conversation, and personal time.


This is not a busy sightseeing check list — it’s a carefully balanced experience.

What are the accommodation options?

Each guest has a private en-suite bedroom, with a limited number of upgraded rooms available.

Shared room options may also be available for those travelling together.

Full details and pricing are listed on the Accommodation page and the bookings page.

Is this retreat suitable for solo travellers?

Yes — many of our guests travel solo.

The retreat is designed to feel welcoming, inclusive, and comfortable whether you arrive alone or with someone else.

How do I book?

Bookings will open once final arrangements are confirmed.

For now, you can register your interest via the website to receive priority access and updates.

How does payment work?

A deposit is required to secure your place, with the remaining balance payable in instalments.

Full payment terms, cancellation policies, and financial protection details will be clearly outlined before bookings open.

Is my money financially protected?

Yes. We operate in line with UK Package Travel Regulations and appropriate financial protection.

Full details will be provided on the Booking & Payment Information page.

Who hosts the retreat?

The retreat is hosted by Beyond Journey Travel, with on-site hosts present throughout to ensure everything runs smoothly and you feel well cared for.

Can plans change?

While every effort is made to deliver the itinerary as described, minor changes may occasionally be necessary due to weather, local conditions, or availability.


Any changes will always be made with guest experience as the priority.
