About The Retreat
Dates: 25th – 28th October
If you love to be in the Welsh countryside, surrounded by rolling hills, rivers, streams, nature and peace and quiet this is the right yoga retreat for you.
Join us for a 3 nights hiking yoga retreat over the weekend from Friday to Monday. Stay in a family-owned multi-property estate that dates back to 1176, it was initially a farm serving the local monastery. Since then, it has had stunning renovations to create a beautiful retreat space.
Why not stay in one of the main barns? Or maybe, try out a quirky converted wheat silo? Either way, you will enjoy lots of space and room options.
Of course, get your hiking boots ready to enjoy two guided hikes with qualified guides on Saturday & Sunday. Want to fully relax? Relax in the beautiful grounds and read a good book, or journal, or enjoy a massage from our talented team. This 3 night yoga retreat escape will leave you feeling energised and revitalised.
On our 3 night yoga holiday in Wales you will have up to 3.5 hours of yoga a day, delicious vegan food from one of our fabulous chefs and gorgeous accommodation making you feel cared for throughout.
Accommodation
Located close to the literacy town of Hay-On-Wye, the property was once part of the farm serving a Cistercian monastery founded in 1176. Steeped in history the individual barns and buildings have been lovingly restored and updated to create a stunning home from home space.
Beautiful gardens create a multitude of private oases to relax in spread across the 4 individual buildings, each with their very own unique style and character, that we inhabit during our stay.
We have a choice of 6 single rooms with double beds and an ensuite bathroom, 3 single rooms with double beds with shared bathroom with 1 other room, a twin room with its own bathroom and a twin room with a shared bathroom with one other room.
The Wheat Silo is a quirky accommodation for two people sharing a double bed and it has its own kitchen, bathroom and living space and stunning views of the Brecon Beacons.
The yoga studio is a beautiful, long barn conversion full of natural light and double doors that open up into the inner courtyard and the valleys beyond.
