Mind & Body Retreats

What we really like about this retreat is getting to know people that much better and appreciating their specialness that can often be overlooked. That is not quite the same with a larger retreat

Here is a sample of the weekend activities although everything can be subject to last minute change and we will definately be working around the weather. Upon arrival on the Friday:

After settling into your room you can join us either outside on the lawn or in the yoga room for some easy postures to revitalise from the journey and prepare for the evening meal which is at 6pm

Evening meal consists of 3 courses on a serve yourself arrangement. Meals are vegetarian and it's usually soup to start. You can request meat or if you have any special dietary requirments then please let us know in advance. On the first evening we could take a stroll around the circluar walk around the grounds taking us through the wooded copse, the herb and kitchen garden and the stable block, the sunken garden and old tennis court lawn and past the labyrinth lawn. There will be a social activity and Yin Yoga class to prepare for bed. Saturday
