- Getting to Gaia House retreats @Seale-Hayne
There are a number of ways to travel to Gaia House and we’ve tried to include as many options as we can here. We encourage you to consider Car Share or Taxi Share and to make your journey as carbon neutral as possible.
Please do NOT make any travel arrangements until your retreat place has been confirmed. Gaia House cannot be held liable for travel arrangements made before you’ve received your confirmation of booking.
Please check the time you need to be at Gaia House for Registration – for most Group Retreats this is between 2pm – 5pm.
If coming from north (e.g. London, Bristol):
- Stay on M5 until it ends and becomes the A38
- Take A382 to Newton Abbot (for 3miles)
- At roundabout take 2nd exit A383 signposted Ashburton
- After just over 1 mile turn left on to Chercombe Bridge Road (Opposite Newton Abbot Car Centre)
- Take 1st left to stay on Chercombe Bridge Road
- Follow road for 1.5 miles past sign for East Ogwell, turn right at signpost
- Continue down here for 0.5 miles, Gaia House is on right
If coming from South (e.g. Plymouth):
- From A38 take A383 to Newton Abbot

Please avoid driving on the grass verges in West Ogwell. In wet weather particularly they quickly become rutted and unsightly, which upsets local people who tend these areas and destroys flower bulbs planted in the soil.
In snowy or icy weather, drive first to Denbury (the roads are always gritted to Denbury), and then from Denbury to West Ogwell.
Lift Share. It is possible to offer or request a lift to and from retreats by posting a message to the online Lift Share Message Board.
