This stunning house, tucked into the hillside of Llyn Peninsula has the most incredible views up the North Wales coast and the mountains of Snowdonia. Easily accessible from all major motorways through the Snowdonia mountains, it is approximately 2 hours away from Warrington & Manchester.

There are 11 comfortable bedrooms to choose from with a mix of options to share with your friend or partner. If you are traveling solo you will be allocated a bed in one of the shared rooms. Please select your room preference when you book or ask to be assigned a room if you are sharing. Rooms are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Over the course of the weekend, all meals, snacks and teas will be provided (including dinner on Friday evening and a healthy brunch to set you on your way home on Monday). You will be nourished by the incredible Gala’s Organic Kitchen. The food will be all organic and vegetarian in order to keep the energy and vibration high. If you have any specific dietary requirements, please let us know when you book.

Arriving on Friday 14th of October, you will check-in from 4pm. We will show you to your room and you will have time to unpack and settle in before you meet your fellow yogis and yoginis. We will initiate and welcome you onto the retreat with sage smudge and a brief introduction before our first grounding practice.

Over the course of the weekend, experience a carefully crafted and unique blend of energising and grounding Hatha and Vinyasa Flow, to more gentle Restorative and Yoga Nidra to candlelight. We will guide you into expanded states of awareness with dynamic breathwork and pranayama, meditation, mindfulness. Finally melting away into complete bliss with a mesmerising sound bath.

We invite you to fully let go of the outside world and go within, using these ancient and modern practices. Learn about Yoga philosophy, it’s application as an antidote to the challenges of modern life and its power to positively affect lifelong change.

You will have plenty of downtime for you to take time out for yourself too. Relax in the wood-fired sauna and hot tub, gather around the fire pit, and wander in the sculpted gardens. Or simply sleep, rest up, read or take time to journal your experience. With the beach and the hills on our doorstep, we will step out into nature and bathe in the glory and beauty of this stretch of the Snowdonia coast.

Check-out time on Monday is 1pm. You will leave thoroughly nourished with a final morning practice followed by a hearty brunch to send you on your way, leaving you with a full glowing heart, amazing memories and new friends.
