Start your new year afresh taking time out to re-set, allowing you to feel calm, restored and inspired, ready for the year ahead.

Wintertime wellness in the Cotswolds

It’s all awaiting you...

This wonderful estate sits within 500 acres of picturesque farmland, a beautiful backdrop for those long country walks. This dreamy winter venue includes a stunning Pilates studio, a cinema room, and a heated indoor pool that could have been lifted from a members-only health club.




You will be staying at one of the most sought-after private wellness retreats in the Cotswolds (as featured in Tatler and Harper’s Bazaar). This collection of modernised barns, restored and curated by an award-winning design house, combines a snug-luxe aesthetic, farmhouse chic and modern country feel. 

Embrace the cosy season with this warm & nurturing retreat.

In the embrace of the English countryside, you’ll find the tonic of tranquility.

This is a time for daily Pilates, relaxation, connecting with likeminded women, chatting, laughing, enjoying delicious fresh food and good wine. Time away from responsibilities. This is far more than just Pilates. I am a firm believer in fitness in conjunction with life’s riches. This is about taking time away from your busy life, to nourish your body and soul.

Each morning you’ll enjoy a 1hour dynamic Pilates class.

Each evening I will be teaching a gentle 45 minute mindful stretch and relaxation Pilates class.

In between classes you’ll have plenty of time to relax… Take a swim in the indoor heated pool or you may prefer to just read a book whilst you laze on a cosy lounger, enjoy invigorating walks in the fresh countryside air, or join in one of our creative workshops (think amazing facial workshop and / or mindful floristry session). The choice is yours, wherever your mood takes you.

The food will be a big part of our retreat, bringing you nutritious comfort food that your body craves at this time of year. We will have a private chef creating mouth-watering meals prepared daily with seasonal and fresh products. You will be provided with a delicious brunch and evening meal.

Your Questions Answered

IS IT OK IF I COME ALONE TO A RETREAT?

Yes, absolutely!

You won’t be the only one coming alone, so don’t worry. We spend a lot of time together as a group, so it’s ideal if you want to find some new like-minded friends. The groups of women who come along to our retreats are open, warm and welcoming.

It’s also worth knowing that we create a WhatsApp group chat before the retreat. It’s a lovely way to connect with others if you want to coordinate travel to the retreat or meet up beforehand! We use the chat during (and after) the retreat.

I HAVE NEVER DONE ANY PILATES BEFORE – CAN I STILL COME?

Yes, you absolutely can. That being said, you will probably enjoy the Pilates more if you’ve taken a few classes beforehand, either online or in person. Maybe give my online Pilates membership a try?

I HAVE DIETARY RESTRICTIONS, CAN YOU CATER FOR ME?

Yes! When you sign up for the retreat, you’ll fill out a questionnaire where you can add in any dietary requirements and more information. We will look after all of your needs and make sure you feel totally comfortable.

CAN I DRINK ALCOHOL WHILE ON THE RETREAT?

As long as you balance it out with a green juice at breakfast! We’re joking of course, but yes, you can drink a lovely glass of wine after a day of Pilates. This is your own time to prioritise yourself– it's here to be enjoyed. 

WHAT DOES THE RETREAT COST INCLUDE?

All of your Pilates, food and accommodation is included in the retreat price. The main cost not included is your travel, which you’ll need to organise yourself.

DO I NEED TO PACK MY PILATES MAT?

99% of the time no – the retreat venues have their own Pilates equipment available. If you do need to bring a mat with you, we'll let you know in plenty of time!

WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?

Please make sure that you are certain that you can come before signing up.

Retreats are planned far ahead of time, as we secure our accommodation and private chefs more than a year in advance. Deposits are non-refundable, as even if you cancel we’re still responsible for paying third parties.

However, we absolutely understand that sometimes emergencies happen. Please let us know ASAP, so that we can have the best possible chance of finding someone to fill your spot. (If we are easily able to fill your spot, we can offer refunds on a case by case basis).  

SHOULD I BUY TRAVEL INSURANCE?

Yes, always. Just in case.
