Disconnect from the chaos of the modern world and reconnect with yourself and nature.
~3 Day Retreats ~
Our retreats offer a unique blend of yoga, nature activities and mindfulness practices. These retreats are a fabulous chance to drop off grid and connect in style with yourselves and the world around you.
Each one will have their own unique theme and topics are intertwined within the whole retreat to include the food we eat, to the way we practice and meditate without dogma.
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 gorgeous attention to detail, deeply rooted ethics, without being preachy or pious.

The Yoga Practice
We run two daily yoga classes suitable for all levels. These Vinyasa Karma classes prioritize breath development and incorporate elements of chanting, pranayama, and meditation. Now in our very own dedicated yoga space with views across the farm.
Nova Milesko’s (SRYT 500) yoga classes include elements of the hard, yang-styles, such as Akhanda, Anusara, Ashtanga, and Vinyasa Yoga, and the softer, yin-styles.
She has studied with world-renowned teachers Visvaketu (Akhanda), Shiva Rea, (Vinyasa Flow) John Friend (Anusara) and David Swenson, (Ashtanga). She has also been privileged to learn from inspiring teachers Sarah Powers, Paul Grilly, Sharon Gannon, Michael Gannon, and Mathew Sweeny amongst others amassing over 2000 hours of training and over 10,000 hours teaching.
Homemade meals
Indulge in mouthwatering, homegrown, and homemade meals, including delightful vegan treats like cakes and cookies.
You’re detoxing from the digital world, not from delicious 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.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
”What a magical experience. If you need a break, recharge and be nourished this is the place. The setting is so lovely, you get to pick up your own eggs from the far, feed baby lamb and walk around a real farm with horses, sheep, goats all of it.
Nova is the best yoga teacher, her sessions are fun and strong and the yin class in the evening is so restorative. I think I fell in love with the veg food and want all the recipe. Delicious.
What I loved is the realness of all of it. It’s so perfect for someone like me living in big city. I am looking forward to be back. The best part is the ability to meet others and be reminded of the power of community.”

Lush Eco Farm Retreats in Press
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 2024 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.
For any questions, please email us at hello@newforestretreats.com with your room and date preferences, and we look forward to meeting you soon. 🌿
