Are you ready for a Yoga Retreat
​where you can ...


​​Practice Yoga and pranayama twice daily in peaceful surroundings.

Nourish yourself with freshly prepared, tasty vegetarian food.

Enjoy the simplicity of sharing the experience with others in a country setting.

Spend time in silence and in meditation. 

Find time to walk by the sea and enjoy the beautiful Dorset coastline.

Breathe fresh air, stroll in the countryside and witness nature's awakening to summer.

Relax in the evenings reading, journaling, sharing thoughts, making new friends and feeling the togetherness of yoga community.

Treat yourself to a massage and holistic treatments with Pepa, Bryony and Julie.

Find all this within a couple of hours’ drive from Bournemouth and Poole and 2 miles from the sea at Lyme Bay.

If you are tempted by any of the above ...

... come and join me and other yoga lovers at Bonhays

Bonhays is an eco Retreat Centre, nestled in the hills of West Dorset, between Bridport and Lyme Regis and just two miles from the sea. The setting is secluded and peaceful, surrounded by beautiful countryside.
​
The simply furnished accommodation surrounds a central courtyard, with the soft curves of the straw buildings and the hills beyond, there is quiet and stillness here.

Bonhays has lovely communal areas to relax in as well as many spots for quiet and reflection. There is also an indoor heated swimming pool.

We will be sharing nourishing and  tasty vegetarian food in the conservatory, practicing yoga and meditation in a room that is only ever used for that purpose, or weather permitting we may enjoy a session outside on the lawn.
 
The coast and beaches are 2 miles away if you'd like some fresh sea air and enjoy a beach walk, or you may simply choose to enjoy a peaceful moment on the decking and watch the sunset, swim leisurely in the pool.

​Give yourself time to just be and rejuvenate.
