What an incredible trip to Morocco ✨

So much colour, warmth, connection and calm all wrapped into one vibrant, healing place.

I already know we’ll be returning in February 2027 with a very special retreat…

🌱Micro-Wellness Tip: Move your body for 10 minutes each day in whatever way brings you joy. Stretch, dance, hike, run, flow. Yes, you can move your mood by moving your body. 🌞

Even small moments of movement can shift your energy, reconnect you to your body, and help you feel alive. I say take to the hills!✨

Life is made of small moments, the morning walk, a smile exchanged, the cups of tea, the little choices we make each day. 🌿

And yet… sometimes we crave something bigger. An adventure that reminds us who we are, that stretches our comfort zones, and sparks joy again.

For women who’ve spent years putting others first, adventure is not escape, it’s remembering you have wings and you too can fly. ✨

This is why I created our Ibiza Yoga & Adventure Retreat. A few days to explore, move, connect, and feel alive, all in a safe, nurturing space. 🌊🧘‍♀️

🌱 Micro Wellness Tip: Step outside for 10 minutes. Feel the spring air, notice the fresh shoots and buds, listen to the birds, and let yourself fully be in the moment. I habit stack this after lunch. Eat then walk its simple! ✨

I first “discovered” Silverholme one winter night, in my head, while breastfeeding my two-month-old, Freddie.

I imagined a place by a lake where we could gather for yoga, walks, and long shared meals. A few weeks later, I drove three hours to see it… and I was completely sold. The light, the rooms, the lake frontage. It felt like our new retreat home.

That first retreat was joyful chaos, Freddie in a backpack now six months old, my car full of flowers and cake and somehow, magic happened. Fires were lit. Guests arrived. Laughter filled the house.

Years on, the Lake District called us back. Together with , we created our wild swimming retreats, all about slowing down, being in water in your own skin, and reconnecting with nature. And with beautiful plant-based food, every day becomes something to savour.

April here is truly special.
Spring light on the lake.
Bluebells at Grasmere.
Wild garlic in the woods (and in our soups!)

Swimming, walking, gathering, and laughing together.
A return to joy. A return to nature. A return to feeling wonderfully alive.

✨ Our April Lake District Yoga & Wild Swimming retreats have just a few spaces left.

Yorkshire yoga and walking - SOLD OUT.

If you missed this opportunity, why not join us this June in Wales and hike Mt Snowdon with us and the team . Think big hikes, a sense of achievement and waterfall dips as the reward!

There is just one room left for this next gathering. Has it got your name on it?

Spring is quietly on its way. The bulbs are pushing through, the birds sound different, and the light feels softer somehow. Even on colder days, those blue skies seem to call us outdoors.

If you’re feeling a pull to move, to walk, to breathe a little deeper, that’s no coincidence. It’s a sign that we’ve made it through winter. Energy is rising, optimism returns, and before long, spring will be in full flow. I love this time of year. There’s a sense of hope that feels contagious.

That feeling is exactly why I’m so excited about our March Yoga & Walking Retreat and even more so because we’re heading to a brand new venue. This is our only retreat in March, and we’re pouring all of our attention and care into it.

March 6–9 - three nights, giving you two full, glorious days to relax
2 rooms left, twin ensuite or king ensuite shared occupancy
Price £995 pp

Picture evenings soaking in the wood fired hot tub under open skies, after after bracing hill walks and cooling river dips (optional of course!)

If you’ve been craving fresh air, movement, and a real pause before spring fully arrives, this retreat might just be the one.

Your Zest Life Retreats

The Zest Life was created from a love for yoga and the outdoors by founder Laura Bell in 2011. Our philosophy is really very simple. We have a gorgeous, luxury venue in the heart of north wales where we invite you to come and stay for a few days. You get to do as little our as much as you like during that time, with activities to energise and inspire such as hiking Snowdon, Stand Up Paddling and wild swimming to activities to calm and restore such as yoga, meditation and beach walks. We show you some of Wales most spectacular scenery and with a fantastic, positive team that will cater for your every need, you will feel nurtured and refreshed by the time you leave. “30 best wellness breaks in the UK” The Telegraph, May 2018. “The 25 greatest yoga holidays on the planet” The Telegraph June 2017. “Top yoga retreat for activities” The Guardian 2017. “One of the top ten yoga retreats in the world” The Times 2016. “Top six yoga retreats to visit in Europe” The Independent 2014.
