Cornwall Yoga Retreat

Thursday 25th-Monday 29th of September 2025

Let’s escape
the city!

Join me on my first ever retreat in beautiful, wild, welcoming Cornwall, a place where rugged coastlines meet peaceful serenity. Wake up to the sound of the sea and breathe in the fresh Atlantic air in stunning natural surroundings.

A playful, soul-soothing yoga retreat where everyone feels welcome.

Think a mix of creative vinyasa, power, mandala, and yin. And some pilates. And sound bath. Plus Nidra in your PJs just before bedtime!

You can take part in all classes or pick and choose. This is a time for you to reconnect with nature and yourself.
This is a chance for you to simply BE.

Retreat runs from Thursday 25th at 3pm until Monday 29th at 11am

Housel Bay is the most southerly hotel on mainland UK.

Perched on nature’s edge, above a secluded cove, with the wild, and untamed natural beauty of the Lizard Peninsula surrounding it.

Switch off, take a deep breath of sea air, and immerse themselves in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The perfect place for walkers, nature lovers, and foodies.

Where we’re staying

Perched on the edge of the Lizard Peninsula, where the land falls away into the wild Atlantic, Housel Bay Hotel is a hidden gem that blends timeless charm with front-row views of Cornwall’s raw, rugged beauty. Step inside and feel the pace of life slow down — think clifftop breakfasts, windswept coastal walks right from your doorstep, and cosy evenings spent marvelling at the sun melting into the sea.

I stayed here in 2021 and fell in love with this charming family-run hotel. I’ve been dreaming of hosting a small retreat there ever since. You will feel at home from the moment you step through the door.

Victorian features, cosy rooms, stunning views. Plenty of little corners for you to unwind and spend time with yourself whenever you need it. Plus, stunning gardens overlooking the ocean. The hotel is right on the National Trust Lizard coastal walk

You have a choice of sharing a Twin Room in a Country View rooms, or book yourself a single for that extra privacy. We have two available; a Cosy Country room or an Ocean View room for those wanting to wake up looking at the sea.

Free time during the day can be spent roaming the coastal paths, hiking down some stunning coves, visiting a local village for some delicious and locally sourced food, or just resting in the hotel beautiful gardens.

Should you wish to arrive earlier or extend your stay, the hotel can provide extra nights at a special discounted rate for retreat guests.

The Lizard Peninsula

Become immersed in the beautifully dramatic and wild Lizard Peninsula. Wash off the city. Reconnect with nature.
Ramble along coastal paths. Breathe in fresh Cornish sea air.

Lizard Point is the UK’s most southerly tip. A largely undiscovered part of Cornwall and the UK, filled with dramatic and untouched wild beauty. Evolving magnificently from season to season, with areas that seemingly time forgot. The perfect place for a headspace getaway.

Escape the crowds. Nourish yourself. Get back to nature.

the food

We’ll be enjoying tasty Cornish breakfast after our morning yoga session either outside (weather permitting!) or in The Terrace Restaurant. In the evening, we will be treated to a 2 course dinner. Every meal is lovingly crafted by the hotel chefs using local and seasonal produce. You will also have the option to upgrade one dinner to the Fallowfield restaurant and sample the full award-winning tasting menu.

During the day, if you are not out and about, you can treat yourself to specialty coffees or freshly baked goods from the kitchen at the Marconi Bar - which by the way makes cracking mocktails and cocktails.

All with epic sea views!

how to get there

Housel Bay Hotel address: Housel Bay Rd, Lizard, Helston TR12 7PG

The two most convenient train stations are Redruth and Penzance, both approx. 45 mins away. Truro is just a few miles further.

From there, I’d recommend a taxi which you can pick at the station or we will be happy to pre book for you. A one way ride is about £70-80. I’ll do my best to arrange shared transfers for people arriving and departing at similar times to share costs. There is also the option of taking a local bus to Helston and then a taxi from there, which would be cheaper. You can check timetables on Google

For tickets, I’d recommend checking www.thetrainline.com. Alternatively, try www.maintrainpal.com and use code RAIL20. If you happen to have a Railcard that is handy.

Should you need to arrive later or leave earlier, please email me and we will help you out.

You can of course also rent a car at your arrival station. The hotel provides free parking. Please reach out and we can recommend local car rentals.
And if you are coming with a friend, that’d be a good way to share costs and explore further.

Should you want to splash out on the full Cornish Riviera experience, I can recommend the overnight sleeper train https://www.gwr.com that leaves from London Paddington around 11pm and gets you to Penzance the following morning. A delightful way to travel!
