May Full Moon Weekend Retreat

We would be delighted for you to join us for a soul-nourishing weekend of yoga, meditation, treatments, delicious food, a healing gong bath, and a two-night stay at our unique luxury location.

Our monthly retreats are held when the moon is at its fullest, to correspond with the point in the lunar cycle when people most desire some much-needed calm in their busy lives.

This two night retreat experience will leave you feeling transformed both physically and mentally.

Yoga

This retreat timetable contains nine hours of Yoga. Classes will be in various styles including Hatha, Vinyasa and Ashtanga.

We teach our Yoga classes outdoors whenever we can. Amongst the flowers, on The Cloud (our beautiful platform overlooking the countryside) or in our glorious Bedouin Tent to protect from all weathers.

Co-founder, Dipu Das, studied Yoga in a Gurukula system and developed a strong foundation deeply rooted in the Vedic tradition. He delivers classes authentically with the confidence of two decades of knowledge. Dipu's special quality is that he makes you feel as though you are the only student in his class. You learn a little nugget of wisdom every time you are taught by Dipu.

Beautiful Accommodation

Guests have the choice of slumbering in our tranquil shepherd's hut, The Luna Lodge, or staying in one of the bedrooms in our charming 14th Century cottage. For a fairytale stay, our gorgeous Oast House has two double bedrooms with a connecting winding staircase. Plus, our Mother Earth Tipi is a further glamping option for luxury dorm-style guests. Bedding, cosy dressing gowns and fluffy towels are all supplied.

During your free time, you can make use of the facilities in the cottage, wander around the stunning garden and relax with friends around the fire pit while enjoying calming countryside views.

New for 2021, you can also book a warm dip in our gorgeous new eco-log burning hot tub!

Sound Bath

A healing sound bath, led by Dip Das. Relax under the shelter of our Bedouin Tent as an arrangement of traditional gong and crystal sound bowls envelope you in peace and stillness.

Soul-Nourishing Food at Samsara Retreat

Here at Samsara, we believe in serving food with love. Flavours and ingredients that are made to fuel the soul, mind and body. Sumptuous juices, scrumptious curries and indulgent nibbles. All prepared with organic and locally sourced ingredients.

Treatments by Masto Sterling

Guests will be treated to a full-body healing massage..

Masto deals with the centre outwards. The abdomen is the centre of movement, it’s where we absorb our energy and where most of our vital organs are located. The number of problems caused by tension in this area is quite astonishing.
