About Somatree
Somatree
Mission & Vision
Embodiment.
It is through our body that we exist here and we sense ourselves and the world around us.
Through our body, we experience what expansion and growth are and through the same body, we experience limits and finiteness. It is through our lived body that we sense what deeply matters, we experience connection and glimpses of wholeness. Embodiment is not just listening to the body - it's listening through the body.
It's an invitation to dwell and feel at home not just in the mind - space of our heads but in the inner ‘soul space’ of our bodies.

Newhouse Farm Cottages is a 30-minute drive from Junction 27 of the M5. Leave the motorway at Junction 27 and take the A361 North Devon Link Road towards Tiverton/Barnstaple. Leave the A361 at the first roundabout by turning left and following the signs to Witheridge and the B3137. Take the second exit on the first mini roundabout and at the next roundabout turn right (Kennedy Way), passing Morrisons supermarket on your left (straight across at that roundabout) and then turn right at the next roundabout. Look out for the sign for the B3137 to Witheridge, the second turning on the left (Long Drag Hill).
Drive through the villages of Withleigh and Nomansland and when you get to Witheridge drive through the village, passing on the right The Mitre Inn. Take the next right immediately after passing the church and drive down the hill. Cross the river at the bottom and bear right, signed Rose Ash. Follow the road up the valley beneath the trees and Newhouse Farm Cottages is the second entrance on the left.
