During your yoga retreat in Slapton, Natalie (your host and resident Yogi), will run multiple classes every day, combining a mixture of energising and restorative sessions. We always offer wonderful relaxation experiences as well such as a Yoga Nidra and a Sound Journey.
Classes will take place in our purpose built studio with its dedicated yoga wall for ultra deep stretches, or outside on the large terrace enjoying fabulous countryside and ocean views.
Small class sizes mean a more personal experience, giving you the opportunity to learn the importance of alignment, while also getting the chance to ask questions and master various movements.
Before each retreat, you'll get the chance to privately discuss your ability and any specific health concerns with Natalie, ensuring that each class is carefully adapted for all. Find out more about Natalie.

The world famous South West Coast Path is just a short walk away from our retreat base in the peaceful village of Slapton. Each day, after a nourishing smoothie we'll pull on our hiking boots and trek across Devon's rolling fields and dramatic cliff tops.
We're always armed with plenty of hot drinks and snacks, making the most of hidden beaches, secret coves and some of UK's most beautiful coastline.
We'll hike the coastal path whatever the weather, covering up to 5 miles per day so it's recommended you pack decent walking footwear, waterproofs, a sturdy rucksack and your swim gear for our wild dips.
Check out our recommend kit list for full details.

For the adventurous among us, there are opportunities for memorable and invigorating wild swimming experiences.
At Yoga Field & Sea we dip in the ocean every day, all year round, to take advantage of the many health benefits cold water offers our minds and bodies.
The water will be at its warmest at this time of year, so following a safety briefing we'll head straight into the revitalising salt water. Afterwards, cosy up in a hooded towel with a flask of hot tea, both essential for the post swim warm-up.
All water activities are led by our certified team of water sports experts who live and breathe the ocean life here in South Devon. You can find out more about the team, here.

Dreamy weekend! Loved all the personal touches, care and attention to detail. The swims, the paddles, the hikes, the yoga, the food, the farm, the space, it was all just amazing, I'll be back!
Exceeded expectations from start to finish. Considered, thoughtful, kind, big emphasis on the 'treat' aspect of 'retreat'! Was wonderful to have someone else plan and schedule these four days. I could totally switch off.
Just the best weekend - thank-you! Brilliantly designed, and an excellent combo of movement, food and activities. A much needed break from routine and a chance to rediscover me.
Absolutely loved the whole experience. The explanations, quotes and readings during yoga were so inspiring. The facilities on the farm, the tents, the barn, everything top-notch. The food was excellent, varied and great portions!
It was an excellent experience that met my expectations and more. Your team were all so helpful, expert and genial about supporting us in new activities. I have made new friends for sure and a stock of great memories.
This was my first retreat of its kind and I can honestly say it was transformative. From the range of activities, to the food to the wonderful company, my time was so enriching. Nick and Nat were perfect hosts!
