Charitable Incorporated Organisation · In formation
A Charitable Incorporated Organisation transforming 88 acres of wild countryside by the Ebro River into a self-sustaining retreat for human and ecological health.
Our Mission
We live in cities that exhaust us — toxic air, relentless noise, screens without horizon. Health is quietly declining, and the natural world that once restored us is under strain.
Ebro Retreat CIO answers that with a place: a protected valley designed for recovery, where clean water, woodland and open sky do the slow work of making people well again.
“When I inherited more than I needed, I chose to give it to the land. This retreat is my inheritance — passed on to everyone who needs it.”
The Sanctuary · 88 acres
Eighty-eight acres curl around a horseshoe valley near the Ebro River. Former vineyards, herb plantations, almond and olive groves and native pine woodland are being gently restored — not developed.
Nothing here will rise above the trees. The site runs on its own solar power and several rich underground water wells — self-sustaining by design.
Cultivated terraces rewilding into mixed habitat.
Mature Mediterranean orchards across the slopes.
Standing wild woods anchoring the valley.
Rustic timber architecture, never above the canopy.
Clean energy generated on the land.
Rich wells supplying the whole site.

How the Model Works
Ebro Retreat CIO is the parent charity. It is funded entirely by the surpluses of six ethical B-Corp trading subsidiaries; each generates income, and every surplus returns to the charitable mission.
Ebro Retreat CIO
Securing and protecting additional acreage to extend the retreat's wild perimeter.
Expertly-guided, ethical deer-management experiences that fund stewardship of the valley.
Online courses and on-site internships in ecology, land stewardship and rewilding.
A members' association providing access to the retreat's facilities and programmes.
The estate hotel, country pub and conference centre, operated to fund the charity.
Camping, caravanning and the fishing lake — low-impact access to the land.
Open Trusteeships
We are appointing five founding Trustees across six core disciplines. We expect some Trustees to bridge more than one area — what matters most is judgement, integrity, and belief in the mission.
