What’s coming up in 2026?
The Solstice Retreat
Join us for a special, three-night “more than yoga” retreat over the Summer Solstice.
In the depths of the colder months, look ahead to a summer weekend retreat. A few days bringing us together in a beautiful, renovated farmhouse on acres of wild land, a few miles from the coastline. Big windows look out to rolling hills and create a restorative space for us to unwind, relax, and unplug from the demands of our day-to-day lives, to-do lists and devices.
Over the weekend, there will be no rush, only invitations to experience the world from a peaceful, and sometimes playful perspective. Join gentle, embodied and restorative yoga workshops, experience the benefits of chanting and breath-led practice, connect with nature and have time in the afternoons to rest and settle our nervous systems. Feast on nourishing, seasonal meals, and enjoy an evening under stars and around fire celebrating the Summer Solstice.
THE VENUE
Retreat to a newly renovated and solar-powered farmhouse set amidst 40 acres of beautiful Welsh countryside. There's a spacious and light-filled garden room for our yoga practice, kitchen and outdoor dining, and living areas with comfy sofas to relax in. There are 3 large bathrooms to accommodate the 6 roomy bedrooms in the main house and an additional bathroom and beds in the annexe.
Choose your own room, or embrace the retreat way and share with annother guest. Either way, there's plenty of space to have some quiet time to yourself, and lots of outdoor seating and spaces to soak up the summer.
YOGA
Over the weekend, there will be workshops and practices to explore, guided by two experienced yoga teachers. Delving into the depths of yoga, philosophy, and rest - you'll be supported along the way, with all practices suitable for any or no experience. Morning practices are designed to be uplifting and start the day with clarity, including gentle asana (physical yoga/ movement) and joyful chanting. The afternoon and evenings will encourage us to settle, with restorative yoga & philosophy teachings. Everything throughout the weekend is designed to be inclusive and optional... Prefer to stay in bed for a lie-in in the morning? Whole-heartedly encouraged!
FOOD
We will share eight seasonal, colourful and home-cooked vegetarian meals over the weekend, with plenty of choice and summer desserts for supper. Sweet treats will appear in the afternoons and teas and refreshments always available to help yourself. Please let us know about any allergies or preferences when booking.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Rural accommodation for 3 nights in a renovated, solar-powered and spacious farmhouse
Hearty and seasonal meals including Friday dinner, Saturday & Sunday breakfast, lunch and dinner, and Monday breakfast
Multiple yoga classes and workshops exploring uplifting, embodied and restorative practices
Mindful, nature-based activities on the 40 acres of land supporting us to connect, slow down and feel replenished
Access to local walks, ancient trees and secluded nature spots to sit and be
Lots of brews, sweet treats, a glass of wine if you wish on one evening & refreshments
Encouragement to rest, relax and have fun. We will gather in community for the evenings & make sure there’s plenty of unstructured time to explore or get comfy in the sunshine/shade with a book.
“A wonderful, uplifting and experiential weekend. This was my first time on a retreat and I felt so comfortable and welcome. I loved the feeling of contentedness that came from it, along with the ability to take time for myself and reconnect with my wild side. The food sang to my soul and made it feel like home!”
