Coaching & Facilitation Venue · Near London, Ontario
A private venue for
the work you do best.
Fernwood Hills is a 40-acre private property in Komoka — ten minutes from London, Ontario. Coaches, facilitators, and retreat leaders use the Studio Loft and Farmhouse for VIP intensives, mastermind retreats, and group coaching programs. 5–20 people. No hotel lobby. No conference centre energy.
Check availability →The setting changes the work.
Coaching in a private forest property is different from coaching in a hotel meeting room. The quiet, the scale, the absence of other people — participants show up more open, and that matters for deep work.
Yours for the day.
When you book Fernwood, the property is yours. No other groups sharing the space, no strangers at the next table, no interruptions during a breakthrough moment. What happens here stays here.
Built for how you work.
Circle format or table format. Indoor or outdoor. Morning-only or full day. The spaces are flexible because facilitated programs aren't one-size. Book one space or both and configure them the way your program needs.
The Spaces
Two spaces, one property — use either or both.
Studio Loft
1,120 sq ft of open working space.
A purpose-built open loft with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and natural light on three sides. Open enough for movement-based facilitation, circle formats, and experiential work. Quiet enough for the kind of conversation people don't usually have in offices. Forest visible from every window.
- Somatic work, breathwork, and movement facilitation
- Circle-format and experiential group programs
- Mastermind retreats and VIP intensive days
- 1,120 sq ft — configurable for any format
- From $295 half-day · $495 full day
The Farmhouse
Table-format programs, shared meals, and integration.
The original farmhouse with a long harvest table that seats 14 comfortably — everyone facing each other, no one tucked into a corner. Good for facilitated discussions, coaching conversations, journal work, and any part of the program where the room being warm and human actually matters.
- Long harvest table — seats 14 for facilitated roundtable
- Full working kitchen for group meals or Manna catering
- Outdoor deck, fire pit, and trail access
- 1 Gbps fibre WiFi, HDMI, Apple TV
- From $295 half-day · $495 full day
How Coaches Use It
Formats that work at Fernwood.
VIP Intensive Days
One-on-one or small-group intensive days with existing clients. A private property with no hotel noise, no lobby energy — just you, your client, and the work. Combine indoor sessions with trail walks between blocks.
Mastermind Retreats
Quarterly or annual gatherings for mastermind groups of 6–16 people. The Farmhouse long table keeps everyone facing each other. Breakout space in the Studio Loft. Fire pit for the evening session.
Leadership & Executive Workshops
Leadership development days for corporate clients who want something more deliberate than a hotel meeting room. The forest setting does something a conference table never will — people arrive already a little different.
Somatic & Body-Based Coaching
The Studio Loft's 1,120 sq ft of open hardwood floor is purpose-built for somatic work — movement exercises, breathwork, embodiment practices. Vaulted ceilings, natural light on three sides, forest views.
Group Coaching Programs
Day-long sessions for program cohorts. The Farmhouse seats 25 comfortably for round-table discussions; the Studio Loft holds 20 for experiential formats. Run both spaces simultaneously for split programming.
Retreat-Style Workshops
Public or private workshops with a retreat arc — morning session, forest walk at midday, afternoon integration. Manna catering handles the food so you handle the program.
The Land
Forty acres of forest between sessions.
Many coaches structure their days with trail walks between blocks — not as filler, but as part of the process. Carolinian forest, a meadow, a creek. Participants come back from a 20-minute walk different than when they left. No program materials required. The land does the work.
The Food
Manna by Fernwood Hills — in-house food prepared in a simple, thoughtful way that fits the scale and feel of your day. Seasonal menus, family-style or buffet service. No fixed price list — menus and pricing are worked out as part of your booking. We can accommodate vegetarian and some other dietary preferences; just mention it when you inquire. Outside caterers are welcome too — bring your own, no corkage. About Manna →
Multi-Day Programs
Stay the night for a deeper program.
Mastermind retreats and VIP intensives that run across two days work especially well with an overnight stay. Participants settle in, the evening session around the fire is often the best of the whole program, and the morning is slow and deliberate before the drive home. Up to 8 guests overnight across the four spaces.
