A yoga retreat is a step away from the day to day, a chance to really switch off and dive into some self care and your yoga practice. It’s a real treat and it can be hard to figure out where to start researching. This is why I’ve pulled together my 10 favourite offerings for this year both in the UK and abroad for you. Happy exploring
The Wild Times
All of The Wild Times retreats focus on rest, adventure and real life connection. Visiting some of the most beautiful wild places in 2025 you can expect retreats in Morocco, Italy, Sweden, the Lake District and Somerset.
Rooted in yoga all of The Wild Times retreats also build in other activities such as walking, paddle boarding and wild swimming dependent on location
Alice Trow Yoga
Alice has a beautiful offering of retreats for 2025 with escapes to Crete, Corfu and Portugal already up for booking. There are usually some UK dates available later on in the year too which are more budget friendly.
Alice’s teaching is playful but rooted and I am sure that her retreats will be beautiful step away from the everyday
Breathe with Ease
Breathe with Ease is rooted in a gorgeous yurt in Sussex and it is from there that founder Nicole runs day retreats and events.
As well as her at home offering, Breathe with Ease is heading off to retreat in Greece, Ibiza and Morocco in 2025. Featuring yoga, breathwork and meditation it sounds like every retreat will be glorious. Oh and did I mention the Silent Disco Yoga?
Soul Sancuary by Cat Meffan
Cat Meffan’s Soul Sanctuary retreats are taking place in Menorca, Cornwall and Portugal this year and the locations look absolutely dreamy!
Always featuring Cat’s yoga teachings, some of the offerings in 2025 are also including pilates which is a lovely addition to a retreat schedule.
Em Yoga
Emma Heald, founder for Em Yoga, describes their retreats as the place to revitalise, relax and restore your precious energy and with locations dotted aound the UK and Europe there are plenty of opportunities to do just that.
We all know that retreats can be expensive but Em Yoga has a variety of prices available making a trip to treat yourself possible
Our Retreat
Often named the best retreats by publications such as Conde Nast Traveller, Our Retreat has a location for everyone in 2025.
I didn’t quite get this post written in time to shout about their ski offering (check it out for 2026) but their retreats in Somerset, Italy and Menorca look truly beautiful. Again expect a mixture of movement through the retreat with a focus on either yoga or pilates.
Journey to You
Cornwall is special, so is the summer solstice. Maisie from Journey to You is therefore creating a beautful offering by bringing these two together.
Located on the cliffs of Cornwall near Lands End this retreat promises meditation, embodied yoga, dance, community, rituals and more. All catered by the incredible Feed Me Momma who’s vegan spreads are legendary in the retreat world!
Wellness Warriors
If yoga and surf is your thing then Wellness Warriors have you sorted. Their yoga and surf retreats have the option of joining for the whole weekend or dropping in for a day, making the whole thing more accessible time and finance wise.
The base for the retreat is nestled in nature with a wood-fired hot tub, sauna, and plunge pool, perfect for post-surf and yoga recovery. Featuring bespoke yoga sessions focusing on surf-specific movements and tailored surf lessons from local instructors you’ll be ready for a chilled movie night at the end of the day
Firelight
Nestled in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains is where you can find Firelight’s retreats in 2025. It may well be in the mountains but you’re also only a 15 minute drive from the surf. Firelight founder Jess aims to help you heal, transform and emerge from your winter shell with a schedule of movement and mindfulness.
If you’re local to me in Oxford then do also have a look at Firelights events in their cosy barn and teepee in the summer months
Sky Hut Retreats
A retreat where the view is just truly as beautiful as the relaxation coming your way. Set high up on the cliffs on Evia Island in Greece, Sky Hut retreats aim to look after your whole body.
Focusing on your mind through meditation and breathwork, body through yoga, hiking, bodyweight workouts and volley ball and your fuel by educating on mindful eating and cleansing
Not getting away this year?
You don’t need to head away somewhere to focus on your practice. You can also create that retreat vibe at home. Set aside a day or a couple of hours if you can, make sure you have something yummy in your fridge and a couple of yoga classes ready to stream from your favourite teacher.
Have all your favourite props around, a delicious candle lit, soft lighting and settle yourself into a day just for you
