Long weekend Yoga Retreat
March 14th - 17th 2025
After successful sell-out retreats here for the last five years, Em Fay and Ochre return for a weekend of yoga, meditation, country walks and delicious seasonal food in the heart of the Hampshire countryside, within 2 hours reach from London. This long weekend will offer a great opportunity to leave behind the demands of daily life, to reconnect with yourself and to welcome the coming year ahead. With daily yoga and meditation plus lots of activities around the local area set within the South Downs National Park, you’ll leave feeling rejuvenated and refreshed. As well as being a fantastic yoga teacher, Ochre is also a fabulous chef and will be cooking delicious, wholesome meals for us (with Em and Fay as her Sous-Chefs!). Yoga and dinner will take place in a beautiful modern barn, and if the weather is warm and dry enough there will be opportunity to use the venue's new outdoor yoga space too! Spaces will be limited to 16-20 depending on room choices.

Food Options
Your food for the weekend will be lovingly cooked by Ochre Seagrim (with Em as her Sous-chef!), and you’ll be in for a real treat. Ochre always tries to source and cook with fresh, local and seasonal ingredients, that aren’t wrapped in plastic or have travelled thousands of miles. With an influence ultimately inspired by her surroundings, you can expect a selection of wholesome dishes that are designed to be enjoyed. Some wine will be provided on the table during supper time.
How to get there
By car:
Driving from London, traffic dependent, will take approximately 90 minutes. In an effort to reduce our carbon footprint, we would love to help arrange a lift-share if possible. Parking will be available.
Public transport:
The location is reachable via a direct train from London Waterloo or Clapham Junction to Winchester in under 2 hours. You can travel for as little as £20 return when booked in advance. If arriving by train, a 10-15 minute taxi ride from the station to the Park Farm or Plough Inn shouldn’t be much more than £15.
Booking information
£250 deposit will reserve your spot, with the balance due 2 months prior to the retreat (by January 2025).
Please note that rooms priced above are per person and are inclusive of accommodation, yoga, meals and some wine for the table during supper. Let us know which room you’d like to take (and anyone you might be sharing a room with) when booking.
If the retreat is cancelled for unforseen circumstances, rest assured that you will receive a full refund. However if you chose to cancel your place after payment, your place will only be refunded if we are able to resell your room.
