About The Retreat
Want to reset and recharge after a busy Christmas and New Year season? Want to detox after the overindulgence of the festive period and find some stillness in the new year? Join us at our stunning and cosy January yoga retreat in Cornwall. Kick back, relax, stretch out the Christmas excesses and enjoy the company of new friends.
On our January coastal walking yoga retreat in Cornwall, you will be revived with lots of yoga, energising coastal walks, healthy food, and a workshop for setting intentions for 2025 to set some positive goals for the year ahead.
Our retreats are wonderful in winter with their open fires, story telling, cooking workshops, yoga workshops and invigorating walks. With a daily schedule of yoga in the morning and evening, tasty vegetarian meals, massages and free time to explore or relax. Join us for just a couple of days or a week this New Year.
These retreats are perfect for those who want to get away from the usual New Year celebrations, feel healthy, Alive and set positive intentions for the year ahead.
Yoga
The classes are suitable for all abilities, from beginners to intermediate and advanced levels. Everyone is welcome. We have a range of inspiring and experienced teachers who are well practiced at adapting the class for everyone’s level.
Your Teacher
Nicki Timney
Nikki has a strong passion for movement and mindfulness. Teaching yoga since 2019, her classes are centred around encouraging people to develop strength and space in their bodies through their yoga practice. She combines ancient yogic wisdom with modern scientific developments to help individuals learn more about their minds and bodies, and live in a healthier and more fulfilling way both on and off the mat.
Cuisine
We bring our own handpicked chefs with us to the retreats to create delicious fresh, healthy, nourishing vegetarian food. They come up with the most innovative dishes which are truly impressive and leave you feeling content and energised ready for all your activities.
Did you know, the food we have on our retreats is designed specifically to enhance your experience.
In the UK it’s all about seasonal and local produce with inspiring twists to introduce you the exciting things a plant based diet can offer. Some our chefs are also Ayurvedic nutritionists and weave the magical practice of the energetic element of food into what they create.
Accommodation
Recently converted and restored, this truly stunning estate manages to maintain the grandeur of a true Manor house while embracing a modern feel.
Beautiful touches such as White Company London linen in all of the bedrooms and REN products in all of the bathrooms add little luxuries that make the whole experience feel even more special.
The estate is split into three properties. The main one being the Manor House, the hub of the home as this is where the kitchen and dining room are located. In fact, you may recognise the kitchen as it is where celebrity chef Rick Stein has used to film his TV shows many times! Within the Manor are 8 bright and spacious bedrooms that all boast views across the gardens. There are also multiple communal areas with a drawing room, study and library for you to relax in.
The Apple Store is a more modern space only a skip across the courtyard from the Manor. With 6 bedrooms there is also a beautiful sitting room with plenty of comfy sofas and its own kitchen. The Apple Store is also where the yoga studio is located! Through a door in the kitchen you find yourself in the bright and super spacious yoga studio boasting stunning oak beams, pillars and high ceilings.
If you want total privacy, there is also the adorable Laundry Cottage. A fully self-contained cottage attached to the Manor that is full of character and a beautiful first-floor bedroom perfect for a solo traveller or a couple. As a former laundry, this building was where the water was heated to wash the linen and has an enormous original Tudor inglenook fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove.
