Wellness Yoga Escape in the Cotswolds

The retreat takes place in the Cotswolds, in an area of outstanding natural beauty. You'll be staying in converted barns that manage to feel both luxurious and homely. The schedule kicks off on Friday afternoon. After settling in, there's a chance to explore the grounds, then a nourishing dinner, and an opening ceremony where everyone gets to know each other. The day ends with gentle yoga and a sound healing session, which sets the tone for the whole weekend – rest, relaxation, and letting go.

Saturday is the fullest day. It's packed with yoga classes and workshops, but everything is optional. You might start with a Vinyasa flow to wake up the body, then have some time to yourself before a workshop on something like 'breathwork' or 'creative expression'. There's a meditation walk in the afternoon and plenty of gaps for a hot tub, a walk, or simply doing nothing. The day wraps up with another yoga session and a deeply immersive sound bath – an experience many guests describe as the highlight of their stay.

Sunday keeps the magic going with a couple more yoga classes, including a gentler, more restorative practice. There's time for breakfast and a leisurely lunch, and then a closing circle to reflect on the weekend before checkout around 3:30 PM. Treatments can be booked with Gosia, a masseuse with years of experience in top spas and hotels, though these are optional.

The weekend is hosted by Ale and Ola, who are both senior yoga teachers. Ale is a Vinyasa specialist with over a decade of experience, and Ola brings a passion for aerial yoga and sound healing. Together they've crafted a retreat that is both physically invigorating and deeply restorative, with classes that range from energetic and challenging to calm and grounding. It's also small enough that you feel looked after the whole time – the group size is kept between 10 and 18 people.
