Yoga Retreat

Yoga in the open air, with the hills as the backdrop.

Two sessions a day, an open-air space, and no requirement to have ever rolled out a mat before. Sunrise and evening yoga are included for every overnight guest.

The Setting

An open-air space, built for the quiet hours

Our yoga space sits out on the grounds, with the hills as a backdrop and trees close by. Mornings start cool and still; by the evening session, the light is low and the day has gone quiet — it's a different room by the same name, twice a day.

Sessions are kept small and unhurried. Mats, blocks and blankets are provided, and no prior experience is expected — we've had first-timers and decade-long practitioners on the same mat.

Styles Offered

Three practices, depending on the time of day

Morning

Hatha Yoga

A steady, posture-focused practice used for the sunrise session — the foundation most of our guests build on through their stay.

Evening

Restorative Yoga

Slow, supported poses using bolsters and blankets, timed for the evening session before dinner.

Breathwork

Pranayama

Guided breathing practices woven into both sessions, and offered on their own for guests who want a shorter sit.

Who Leads the Sessions

A resident instructor, on the property every day

Sessions are led by our resident yoga instructor, based at the property rather than flown in for a workshop. That means classes stay small, pacing adjusts to whoever's on the mat that morning, and questions get answered in person rather than over an app.

This is an experiential retreat practice, not a certification course — there's no teacher-training curriculum here, just two honest sessions a day.
