"I had a lovely time at Viveka Garden Retreat, a perfect get away. Fiona has such a wealth of knowledge that she shared so freely, but she also held the whole experience so lovingly and effortlessly that I left feeling loved, refreshed, inspired and somehow having gained a bigger picture of the world in general. The venue was amazing as you would expect. Great yoga space and a garden teeming with life and abundance, to sit in after class to reflect and read. The food also deserves a mention as it was utterly delicious and so plentiful I turned into quite a pig! All in all an excellent experience that I highly recommend to all." S, Derby
"Viveka Gardens is beautifully peaceful, Fiona does an incredible job of opening her space with gentleness and freedom to just be! There is a real sense of her coming alongside you wherever you are at in life, and I felt very nurtured by two days of yoga – not to mention wonderful vegan food and lots of laughs" A, Oxford
"It's a beautiful place, well off the beaten track, and a haven of peace. Fiona is a warm and inspiring host, and we were very comfortable and well fed with delicious vegan meals made using produce Fiona had grown. The yoga space is clean, comfortable and well equipped. It was wonderful to feel so supported together in sharing teaching, practice and laughter. I felt thoroughly nourished and rested by the end. My only gripe was that the retreat wasn't for 4 nights. Hoping to return very soon..".R, Hackney
