All new this year our very own dedicated yoga space with views across the farm.
These retreats are a fabulous chance to drop off grid for a bit and connect in style with yourselves and the world around you for a bit.
Each one will have their own unique theme and topics are interwined within the whole retreat to include the food we eat, to the way we practice and meditate without dogma. They run from 1st day 4pm till after lunch around 1pm on the 3rd day.
Perfect for when you just need to see the nature and hear the sheep, as you fall asleep.
This retreat has been running in this venue for the last 9 years and has been a sell out every year due to its perfect mix of rustic style and gourgous attention to detail, deeply rooted ethics, without being preachy or pious.
This retreat was added to the Guardians list of 10 best yoga retreats in UK and Europe 2019/20 and had a sell out year during the non-lock down parts of 2020/21.
2022 was another awesome one, with “The Beautiful South Tourism Awards” checking us out and by joining New Forest Marque we are making all the commitments to create beautiful ethical retreats we can!
We were featured by SWR as top retreat in the southwest, and also included in the EuroStars guide to top retreats in Europe.
And in 2023 we are only going to get better! We are always improving what we have at the farm, with a new purpose build new studio coming this year, in its own Zen garden.
BookRetreats has also featured my retreats as one of the top 10 in the world! And not to mention most instagramable, which is definitely a weird one for a retreat promoting a digital detox! But Hey I will take it.
Feel Good Ethics
I have the same conscious commitment to be as eco, ethical, and socially aware as possible, because a retreat for you should make the world a better place for everyone!
And at this venue it is no different, we are using solar and ground source heating, not to mention growing the most wonderful organic food on site.
By using the local produce in all the meals, giving to offset your travel to and from the retreats, using only ethical eco products during the retreats (where covid allows), we are able to truly make a difference.
The food
– As a cow a week Zimbabwean, I was a bit anxious if I was going to survive on a vegan diet. I did have a couple of spare kg I was willing to shed so it seemed like an acceptable diet. How wrong I was!!! Your food was amazing. I very rarely have seconds. The last time would have been several years ago. I got up twice for seconds this weekend. Not because I was hungry, but because it was so bloody delicious.
Graham Guest 2022

The Yoga Practice
Two yoga classes will be taught each day. These classes will be open to all levels. While building strength and flexibility over the 3 days, these Vinyasa Krama classes will prioritise the development of breath and incorporate elements of chanting, pranayama and meditation.
