Practice, then rest

Hold morning sessions on the lawn or in the lounge, share meals together in the dining rooms, and spend the afternoon in the pool, the sauna or the massage rooms. Twelve bedrooms across two wings keep the evenings quiet.

“The property lends itself to large extended families, yoga retreats, and could work well for foodies.”

How retreats use the house

Sunrise practice on the lawn, breakfast in the main dining room, workshops in the lounge, then massages, the sauna and the pool before dinner and the fire pit.

“A Sauna, rooms for massages, a bar, and quiet work stations if needed to connect to work- are a few of the amenities that amazed us.”
