Accommodation
Cornwall Estate
Recently converted and restored, this truly stunning estate manages to maintain the grandeur of a true Manor house while embracing a modern feel.
Beautiful touches such as White Company London linen in all of the bedrooms and REN products in all of the bathrooms add little luxuries that make the whole experience feel even more special.
The estate is split into three properties. The main one being the Manor House, the hub of the home as this is where the kitchen and dining room are located. In fact, you may recognise the kitchen as it is where celebrity chef Rick Stein has used to film his TV shows many times! Within the Manor are 8 bright and spacious bedrooms that all boast views across the gardens. There are also multiple communal areas with a drawing room, study and library for you to relax in.
The Apple Store is a more modern space only a skip across the courtyard from the Manor. With 6 bedrooms there is also a beautiful sitting room with plenty of comfy sofas and its own kitchen. The Apple Store is also where the yoga studio is located! Through a door in the kitchen you find yourself in the bright and super spacious yoga studio boasting stunning oak beams, pillars and high ceilings.
If you want total privacy, there is also the adorable Laundry Cottage. A fully self-contained cottage attached to the Manor that is full of character and a beautiful first-floor bedroom perfect for a solo traveller or a couple. As a former laundry, this building was where the water was heated to wash the linen and has an enormous original Tudor inglenook fireplace fitted with a wood-burning stove.

Sian Ferguson 2 – Cornwall
My first ever yoga retreat and I am so glad I went! The retreat was well organised, the yoga was restorative as well as energising and the food was fantastic. The reason I choose Adventure Yogi was it also included other activities and in this case, the walks were amazing. Will be coming back and would highly recommend doing so as I feel rested and changed from the experience.
Zida Mirza – Cornwall
A fabulous weekend retreat in the beautiful backdrop of Cornwall. I highly recommend Adventure Yogi- everything about the retreat was well organised and of high quality. I met a wonderful group of ladies and loved every minute! I will be booking again!

Bess is a wonderful yoga teacher which has reignited my interest in yoga, there was so much variety and she tailored the classes for our needs, plus was lovely company for the break
Sandra – Brecon Beacons, Wales
I feel inspired to make changes to how I manage my own wellbeing from attending, both in terms of moving my yoga practise on & having a more plant based diet. People commented on my return that I looked refreshed & radiant- the few days really have made a difference- thank you
Gail Fullbrook – Peak District
AdventureYogi trips are incredible, you get to engage in new pursuits, enjoy restoring and rejuvenating yoga with amazing yogis, savour the delights of vegan chef magicians and be embraced by awesome venues. And you get to giggle, laugh and cry your way through this with amazing new friends.
Sian Ferguson – Cornwall
It far exceeded my expectations. I have never felt so nourished and relaxed. After the last 18 months in the NHS I can't imagine a better, more restorative retreat could be possible. The team made it so special and the company and the laughter were outstanding. Thank you!
Jane Winter – Cornwall
A refreshing break in beautiful scenery, a very comfortable hotel and great yoga. More please!

Another fabulous Adventure Yogi --- adventure! Fantastic, peaceful location, delicious food, the perfect balance of walks and yoga(s), incredible weather and really lovely company. The teaching was inspiring and the organisation faultless. My second trip - planning to make it a hat trick the first chance I get!
Jane Munro – Lake District
This has gone to number one in my retreat experiences - best yoga teaching I’ve ever experienced (as a relative beginner I never thought I’d ever be able to do a 2 hour class). The group bonded well and it was lovely to make new friends. The venue was in a stunning location, with pretty gardens.
Alison Scammell – Lake District
So far I’ve been on three AY retreats and I can’t wait to go on my Fourth! Loved the surf, the beaches, the yoga shala, the rooms! All of it.
Sara Day – Costa Rica
What a great experience, very relaxing, met lovely people and the yoga and walking were brilliant. All-inclusive, non-competitive and not a boot camp. Excellent team at Adventure Yogi.
Jane Stephens – Peak District
Lovely - spacious, airy, homely, the terrace was a great spot for yoga in the mornings and the studio was a nice alternative space for yoga in the evenings. Great views from the rooms and terrace!
Lianne – Peak District
I really needed this retreat after my abroad retreat was postponed twice. The Peak District long weekend however was as good as any retreat abroad, in beautiful surroundings and with like-minded people. It was nice to have a laugh again and make new friends.
Jenny Bastock – Peak District
The classes keep me focused and give structure to my week. I have a sense of wellbeing, my practice is improving and I love rolling out my mat at home! - Carolyn
The Studio
Thank you so much! They get me off the couch on my days off and the restorative/calming sessions really help me relax so much - Kavitha
The Studio
I really enjoyed the day. It helped me to set aside time to reset after the stresses and strains of the recent lockdown, and encouraged me to set up an at-home yoga space. The cookery demo was also fun and delicious. Would really recommend - Lawal
May 23rd Virtual Retreat
It inspired me to continue the downtime across the weekend... no TV or Netflix on both Saturday and Sunday. Instead, I listened to your playlist and read a book - Karen
May Virtual Retreat
I thoroughly enjoyed the day. The pace was just right and the cook-along was a great idea. It was so good to switch off from everything and I will definitely be back for more - Alice
May Virtual Retreat
Really enjoyed the day and ended it feeling completely relaxed. It really did feel as if I had been on a retreat without having gone anywhere - Emma

This holiday exceeded my expectations. Quality of the food, inspiring yoga, challenging hiking and chilled days by the beach. Can't recommend enough
Sheri Parker – Montenegro
Incredible experience. For anyone who is not a 'yogi' - go for it, you will change your mind on how you work out!
Kim Rowles – Montenegro
I am a complete novice who has no experience in yoga. Amy gave me an introductory session and I have nothing but thanks for a wonderful introduction into a new world of possibilities

Joseph – Ski Yoga Holiday
Beautiful, clean rooms, delicious breakfast
Anna Maria – UK Retreats
This was my first yoga holiday and I didn’t know what to expect. But as soon as I arrived I knew I’d made a good choice. The organisers were welcoming and knowledgeable, the yoga teaching-focused, explanatory and evolving through the week, the food divine and the activity choices outside of the twice-daily yoga simply a treat. The combination of hiking/biking/white water rafting complemented each other perfectly, to give a fun and rejuvenating holiday that I’d love to repeat. Thanks to all for a great mountain experience!
Sophie Warans – France
AdventureYogi is the first retreat I have ever been on and it inspired me to look into a yoga teacher training. Life changing experience

AdventureYogi is the first retreat I have ever been on and it was such an inspirational experience. The teachers and the whole team were so friendly and welcoming.
Jessica – Lake District
The hotel was lovely, and the surroundings very pretty. There was a massage tent, and we were blessed to have the magical masseuse Georgie with us. Also, the staff working at the hotel couldn't do enough to make sure everyone had what they needed: generous and genuine hospitality.
Helena – Greece
Very relaxing hotel, wonderful staff and beautiful pool. The location is beautiful. Oia is breathtaking. The yoga and space were amazing. It was beautiful to practice at the church too. The holiday surpassed all my expectations. The quality of the yoga, amazing meditations and attention of the staff at the hotel. It was great having free evenings as there is so much to see and do we needed the flexibility to experience it all. Really well thought out.
Sophie – Santorini
An oasis . Wonderful again. Fantastic atmosphere, delicious food, beautiful yoga space and massage room. ‘The boys’ looked after us so amazingly. And Santorini is amazing!
Tor – Santorini Greece
Excellent venue 10/10! Lovely island. The combination of the venue outside the main villages but the possibility to visit villages and the island was very nice!
Caroline – Greece
It's a picture book resort with lovely empty slopes and the chalet-style apartment was perfectly placed. I was nervous about combining yoga and skiing but it turned out to be the ideal blend. Wonderful bunch of people. Would do it again in a heartbeat.
Luke – Ski Yoga
Apartments were nicer than expected, felt like a chalet, really nice and location PERFECT. Really couldn’t have been better placed.
Caroline – Ski Yoga
Skiing and yoga in one trip with a great bunch of people makes for a fantastic holiday. 100% recommended
Romy – Ski Yoga
I felt I have come away transformed, healed and really connected to myself, nature my body through yoga and connected to others I formed great relationships with over the time of this yoga holiday. I feel really happy and content, unwound and very very grateful to have been part of this.
Jane – Yoga holiday
Beautiful venue and bedrooms. Really easy to get to from London with plenty of picturesque walks
Julie – Norfolk
J’adore AdventureYogi. I came to restore some balance into my hectic life . I left with a spring in my step and hopefully with some new friends. Thank you.
Jo – UK Retreats
Just wanted to say a big thank you to you all for making my very first retreat such an amazing, exciting experience. I have had a fantastic time in a stunning background with wonderful people and lovely nutritious and delicious, filling food, which are two things I would not have thought was possible before coming on this retreat. So thank you all for being fantastic and hope to see you soon on another retreat.
Jackie – UK Retreats
I arrived with trepidation. Left feeling elated. It was so much better than I had expected, good food, excellent yoga, peaceful location. A much-needed break from the madness of life. Just a perfect way to spend a weekend. Feel rejuvenated.
Tom – Norfolk
A true escape and tranquil surroundings in which to rejuvenate and heal. Wonderful people, perfect venue, Nafia's energy and enthusiasm is contagious. Thank you so much for a life-changing weekend. I go home with renewed energy and look forward to the future with an open heart.
Holly – Peak District
It was very relaxed. So nice you could do what you liked. I was coming for the surfing which was great.
Jo – Cornwall
I feel really relaxed and much more healthy. Nice people, very nourishing but also time to do nothing and nice that you get yoga on both arrival and departure days.
Sophie – Atlas Mountains
The surfing and yoga complimented each other perfectly. Every day I felt I was using and nourishing my body and I was out every night as soon as my head touched the pillow.
Grace – Cornwall
We surfed every day which was a really good activity and value for money and the surf school were really nice. I'm feeling very relaxed mentally but physically tired. Nice to have had so much fresh air.

Price definitely reflected the quality of the weekend. Lots of yoga, amazing food and nice accommodation in a great location. The yoga was great. I liked how the morning one was more energising and the evening one more relaxing. Lovely yoga space.

I enjoyed the mix of Forest and Yin, You really do have such good teachers. Yin definitely felt great in the evenings. Highly recommended. Felt rejuvenated and refreshed.

Without the excellent chefs we wouldn’t have been able to do this due to dietary needs. Thank you so much for being so flexible. The venue was very pretty. The location was great from London. Loved that was in the country but near the beach.
John – Norfolk
I really enjoyed the yoga, Louise was a great teacher. The yoga and treatments were excellent and the setting was beautiful. Really well organised and run. I loved the silent walks, meditation was a great reassuring session from Louise. Beach and castle walks were perfect and the structure of the retreat worked well.
Ellen – Norfolk
Superb yoga and meditation weekend in lovely surroundings, time to find my own space, with good company and delicious food. Great use of space. Loved how contained it all is. Comfortable and welcoming. 10/10. Love the countryside location.

Highly recommended and will seek out AY again for the kind of purity it offers. Every respect. I now feel nurtured, cared for and motivated to keep this up. Amazing experience all round!! Thank you so much.
Lucy – UK retreats
AdventureYogi offered me much more than a retreat. They gave me space to return to myself and reconnect with my wants and desires. I can’t thank the team enough for reviving my batteries, stimulating my curiosity and re-invigorating my passion for life – each and every day.

Thank you for creating such a beautiful and playful space to deepen my yoga practice - asana, pranayama, meditation. Thank you for the opportunity to continue to come home to me.

I came for physical yoga but have found I've opened up to thoughts about life, the future and happiness and the beauty of vegetarian/vegan food - I am no longer a skeptic!
Louise – Cornwall
Truly nourishing and restful weekend. The AdventureYogi team were brilliant to make this stay so enriching - really open and kind and open vibe throughout.
Justin – UK 2 night retreats
Thank you! I honestly cannot express my thanks to you all for allowing me space to breathe and reconnect with myself. The yoga allowed me to challenge and ‘stretch’ myself physically and mentally and I have skills I can take into my daily life. I am starting to feel like me again!
Jess – Brecon Beacons, Wales
Loved the setting of the retreat. We took out a canoe which was really fun and the sun was shining on us. I needed the yoga this weekend to really relax and connect with myself. I loved the yoga and especially the yoga nidra. Thank you
Michelle – Brecon Beacons, Wales
The teaching was really great, supportive and knowledgeable and god variations. The yoga shala was amazing, sunset on one side and sunrise on the other! Really loved the meditation.
Lucy – Costa Rica
The villa is charming. I liked the decoration very much especially the lounge. And I love the yoga shala with views of the sunset and the beach. I really liked discovering surfing. I'm sure I'll do some more in the future. paradise valley, sand-surfing, and the fishing village are really great memories as well. Thank you for this experience. I'll always keep it in my mind.
Eleanor – Morocco Surf
The week has been amazing. The organisation was good and there was so much to do we were spoilt for choice. The food was soooo good! So much variety throughout the week, Moroccan flare, and then just really yummy vegetarian options.
Sophie – Marrakech
Just come back from my surf and yoga holiday in Morocco. I was surprised how quickly I felt relaxed - it has been a great week. The yoga classes were fantastic, I loved how tailored they were to the day's activities. The Shala was great to watch the sunrise and sunset. Loved learning the surf and can't wait to do it again.
Mark – Morocco surf
Loved surfing and liked the activities like sandsurfing and paradise valley. I also liked that they were optional and you could choose to relax if you preferred.
Aaron – Morocco, Surf
Loved it. Beautiful yoga shala and pool. Would definitely love to come back.
Pippa – Sri Lanka
The holiday far exceeded my expectations. I am new to come on holiday by myself but immediately felt at home, looked after and part of a family. The food was delicious and have loved relaxing and reflecting in the beautiful garden in the hotel. Yoga was wonderful. I can't believe how much I have learned about myself and yoga in 10 days. I am going home so uplifted and happy. Thankyou!
Sandy – Yoga holiday
In my job as a travel journalist, I’m very lucky to have experienced several different yoga retreats. This French Alps Hiking yoga holiday was one of the best. Our teacher had real integrity and care, plus the group was just the right size. The combination of Alpine walking and yoga really worked. I was stretched in all the right ways.
Rachel – French Alps
Excellent value. A very nurturing and generous venue and yoga practice. I would highly recommend to others! Surpassed all expectations. Great organisation of activities. I have found this holiday truly inspiring and life-changing. Thank you.
Ellen – Montenegro
This week has surpassed my expectations. I have met some amazing people and the combination of the yoga, stunning scenery and great hospitality has made it a holiday I won’t forget for a long time!
Emma – French Alps
All walks were fab! Paragliding was the best and I think there was a good selection of activities and Cycling in the Bourg-St-Maurice gets 10/10!
Tony – French Alps
Surpassed all my expectations. Just the best holiday we have ever had. This yoga retreat has been the best experience of my life. I arrived tired, stressed and weary of life and its issues. Leaving feeling just fantastic, ready to become the person I want to be!
Sam Swift – Greece
It was lovely that it wasn't a 'detox' retreat, but a holiday with yoga. You can eat and drink what you like, and the emphasis was very much on being kind to yourself. That included many chocolate milkshakes around the pool for some as the week progressed, alongside the customary greek salad of course.
Jade Williams – Greece
I spent a week in Greece this summer with Adventure Yogi, and loved every second. I was apprehensive before going because I was a complete beginner (and didn't really know my Downward Dog from my Cobra), and 9 weeks pregnant (and full of nausea). But, I needn't have been nervous - I was completely spoilt by the yoga teachers, who were on hand with many adjustments to make sure the baby was safe and I didn't feel awkward at all about being inexperienced. The whole yoga experience was unbelievably fulfilling, much more so than I could have imagined.
Charlie Spencer – Greece
The yoga ski holiday was great. I loved the different approach to morning and evening sessions you could tell they were tailored to the skiing.
Lawal Brown – Ski Yoga
Our ski area is a picture book resort with lovely empty slopes and the chalet was perfectly placed. I was nervous about combining yoga and skiing but it turned out to be the ideal blend. Wonderful bunch of people. Would do it again in a heartbeat.
John Jones – Ski Yoga
I have been on 4 ski yoga holidays now. I love Sainte Foy and enjoyed the fact that we could ski at a number of locations. I’ll be booking again next year!
Alex Pantzar – Ski Yoga
Every person was made to feel special and valued as part of the yogi group. This I feel is down to the extraordinary people skills of the teacher and Michelle.
Sally Pitcher, French Alps summer
Sri Lanka has awakened something in me and I feel amazing. Thank you so much to my teacher for being such an inspiration.
Sonal Gandhi – Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka with AdventureYogi is a wonderful opportunity to unwind and explore the inner world in a beautiful setting.
Kate Barker – Sri Lanka
The farm at East Sussex was beautiful, peaceful and a countryside haven.
Jenny Sharpe – East Sussex
It exceeded my expectations I feel so grounded and calm. It was a good quality retreat and so tranquil and calm and it is a beautiful venue, very comfortable and loved the pool especially!
Claire Carlile – Brecon Beacons, Wales
Great! It was lovely to be practising yoga outside, I am not a young bunny and I found the pace manageable and involving and the background information clear.
Jane Evans – Costa Rica
The perfect winter getaway from the hustle and bustle of London. Loved the large cosy house with the open fire and the gardens are beautiful. Great yoga and delicious vegetarian food.
Penny Light – Peak District
Excellent location, superb food and wonderful yoga. Such a friendly, helpful group of organisers. Felt 100% better, re energised and healed – body, mind and spirit.
Vicky Dickens – Yoga Retreats
I really enjoyed the weekend, my boss just told me I look bright and glowing! Loved the early morning walks and meditating in the green fields. I had a really great teacher and it felt so good to practice yoga again. The food was delicious and our room was very cosy! Thanks so much!
Poppy Logan – Cornwall
This AdventureYogi retreat was a very special, nurturing and tranquil experience, I had an excellent yoga teacher, and a really wonderful venue. Lovely, easy-going group of people to share a few days with.
Jen – UK Retreats
Good team! Brilliantly organised, taking into account weather, what people wanted to do and of course yoga. What an amazing way to tick TWO things off my bucket list, hiking AND yoga in the beautiful Alps literally!
Joanna – Hiking Yoga French Alps
Fantastic venue. Beautiful house and gardens, tastefully decorated and quiet. The food was delicious, healthy but filling as well. Not tempting me to eat snacks in between! Tried horse riding for the first time in a perfect setting at a good price. A good mixture of quite a difficult hike and optional activities with relaxing yoga.
Philippa – Lake District
I liked everything, but what I most liked was the hikes as well as the sweet hospitality overall. Great organisation. Thorough explaining of activities and daily schedule. Expected yoga teacher to drift in and drift out, but she was always there. So giving of her time.
Pippa – French Alps Hiking
Nice venue. Great Scenes and Mountain views. Great Chalet and Great Location Yoga Space is cosy and nice balcony to have outdoor space. Very enjoyable must be the best hike I’ve been on. Met my expectations overall. Great week! The staff is the perfect team! The yoga changed my life! Dynamic together. There was the perfect amount of activity and relaxation.
Karen – Hiking French Alps
An inspirational start to the New Year – Loved every moment.
Sarah – New Year Retreats
Really great, peaceful time as well as fantastic hiking arranged!
Gabi – Lake District
10/10! Beautiful Chalet, great facilities, loved the hot tub, lounge, deck, everything!
Vickie – Hiking French Alps
In my job as a travel journalist, I’m very lucky to have experiences several different yoga retreats. AlpineYogi was one of the best. Our teacher had real integrity and care, plus the group was just the right size. The combination of Alpine walking and yoga really worked. I was stretched in all the right ways.
Rachel
I have fallen in Love with Sri Lanka and can not pick one single fault in the accommodation; it was 5 star in every single way. I was in my element with the food – curry for breakfast! It all exceeded my expectations… the food, the rooms, the yoga, and the little touches like the flowers on the sun beds and the bell on the gate made it very special.
Viv – Sri Lanka
