Exciting news for 2024 – we’re introducing a brand-new destination: Yorkshire! Following the success of our mountain retreats across the UK, we’ve decided to spread our wings and explore the stunning landscapes of this captivating location with a yoga retreat in North Yorkshire.
Nestled just a short drive from the charming old market town of Richmond, our Yorkshire yoga retreat is situated to the north of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Prepare for an adventure filled with invigorating hikes into this area of outstanding natural beauty, renowned for its glacial landscapes, vast U-shaped valleys, and an expansiveness that sets it apart.
Swaledale, a gem within the Yorkshire Dales National Park that you’ll explore during our retreat, boasts some of the wildest and most unspoiled scenery in the region. Rich in history, many villages and hamlets, such as Gunnerside (derived from ‘Gunnar’s saetr’), still carry names bestowed upon them by Viking farmers over a thousand years ago.
Home to the iconic Swaledale ram, symbolising the Yorkshire Dales National Park, and famed for its hardy sheep and locally-made cheeses, a visit offers a glimpse into the thriving local farming, crafts, and business community that keeps this area a vibrant, working dale.
The lively village of Reeth, featuring art and craft shops, pubs, and cozy cafés, serves as a focal point for our Yorkshire retreat. Further up the dale, picturesque villages like Muker, Gunnerside, and Keld await, providing easy access to unspoiled landscapes and creating the perfect escape for walkers and cyclists.
Join us for our rejuvenating yoga retreats in Yorkshire, where the tranquil beauty of the surroundings harmonises with the serenity of yoga practice. Immerse yourself in the natural wonders of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, all while enjoying the warm community atmosphere and the rejuvenating benefits of our budget-friendly yoga retreats. Discover the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure in the heart of North Yorkshire, a destination that invites you to unwind, explore, and connect.
