ABOUT THE RETREAT
An Invitation to 7 Koppies | February 11-15, 2026
Spend five days immersed in the beauty of South Africa's Cape Winelands, where expansive mountain views, quiet mornings, and the rhythms of nature invite you to slow down. Our February retreat is designed to create space for movement, rest, and meaningful connection, with daily yoga and breathwork with Olivia Otten, nourishing meals, and plenty of free time to spend exactly as you choose. Alongside time to unwind by the pool or wander the farm's fynbos-covered hills, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy rejuvenating facials and treatments with Rhian Truman, curated wine tastings, a day on safari, and other experiences that bring the best of the region into the retreat.
Set on a working farm just outside Franschhoek, 7 Koppies is one of those rare places that feels both deeply grounding and endlessly inspiring. Surrounded by 50 hectares of protected fynbos, the beautifully restored guesthouse blends timeless design, thoughtful hospitality, and an effortless connection to the landscape. Every space has been created to encourage you to exhale, settle in, and feel completely at home.
This retreat isn't about doing more, it's about making room for what often gets lost in the pace of everyday life. Expect slow mornings, moving through a yoga flow, nourishing food, rejuvenating treatments, unforgettable experiences, and moments of stillness that stay with you long after you've left. Whether we're sharing a glass of wine at one of the Cape's celebrated vineyards, spotting wildlife on safari, or gathering around the table for dinner, you'll leave feeling lighter, more connected, and part of a community you'll want to return to.
We can't wait to share this special place with you.
ABOUT 7 KOPPIES
Set within the rolling hills of the Magaliesberg, 7 Koppies is a place where nature, architecture, and thoughtful hospitality come together. Surrounded by indigenous gardens, ancient rock formations, and expansive views, it offers the rare opportunity to slow down and reconnect with what matters most.
Designed with an effortless sense of calm, every space at 7 Koppies invites you to linger. Spend your days moving through beautifully curated interiors, unwinding by the pool, wandering the gardens, or simply taking in the stillness of the landscape. Here, time stretches a little longer, and life moves at a gentler pace.
Created as a sanctuary for rest, reflection, and connection, 7 Koppies is more than a destination. It's a place to experience the beauty of slowing down. We can't imagine a more inspiring setting to gather, recharge, and spend a few days in good company.
