Barmoor Lodge is an Edwardian house on the North Yorkshire Moors with fantastic views of the surrounding countryside from every side. The communal areas are cosy with open fires, big sofas and huge windows with views looking right out over the moors, perfect for curling up in on a rainy day with a book or to chat to friends. The yoga space itself is in its own building just outside the house, kept super warm by the huge log burner, if the days are warm we can throw open the big doors and let the sunshine in. Bedrooms are simple but light and airy. Choose from twin, triple or 4/5 bed rooms.

Each morning will start with a Mysore style self practice class for the more experienced and a led Ashtanga class for those who are less familiar with the practice. In the afternoon there is the opportunity to head out on a guided walk to explore the beautiful North Yorkshire Moors - we will definitely try to find a cold water dipping spot for those who like a spot of cold water. Alternatively you can explore by yourself, the pretty village of Hutton-le-Hole is a short walk awayand there are many other paths to explore. Or relax at the house, read a book, play games, make new friends, spend time journaling, curl up on a window seat with views right out over the moors or on one of the many benches placed outside in the garden. We will have at least one, if not more, massage therapist available. There's a small hill just behind the house, perfect for sunrises, sunsets or moonlit walks.

In the afternoon there will be another yoga class focusing on refining your practice through exploration of alignment and technique, we'll also just have a bit of fun and play around with a few of the more challenging asanas. Each session differs depending on the needs of the group - chanting, pranayama, meditation, journaling, discussion - but there is always space for a long deep relaxation every day. 

The food, as always, will be amazing - all of it is plant based, the majority of it is vegan and gluten free - with the exception of some of the cakes and we will  provide cows milk for those who need it in tea!

The retreat is open to all levels of experience. Don't hesitate to ask me if you have further questions.
