Details of this retreat
Somatic Yoga Retreat in Devon, 25 - 28th June 2026: 4 days/3 nights of Yoga, Connection and Renewal.
HOMECOMING
Pausing is a doorway — an opening in the flow of everyday life.
When we slow down, we begin to notice what usually goes unseen: subtle sensations, inner rhythms, and the quiet wisdom of the body. This retreat is an invitation to return home to yourself.
Homecoming is a 4-day / 3-night sanctuary in the beautiful countryside of Devon, offering space to rest, reconnect, and move at a gentler pace. Through a somatic approach to yoga, we explore movement from the inside out — cultivating body awareness, nervous system regulation, and authentic presence rather than striving for perfect form.
Held at the turning of each season, the retreat aligns with nature’s cycles:
🌱 Spring — renewal, awakening, and gentle beginnings.
☀️ Summer — vitality, expansion, and joyful connection.
🍂 Autumn — letting go, clarity, and inner balance.
❄️ Winter — stillness, nourishment, and deep rest.
You will be supported through practices such as Yoga, Breathwork, Meditation, Somatic Explorations, Trauma Release Exercises (TRE), and optional Massage. Nourishing vegan meals, shared walks in nature, and restorative time in the sauna and pool create space for integration, relaxation, and connection.
This retreat is a chance to pause, listen deeply, and rediscover your natural rhythm — held by the season, the land, and a supportive community.

Directions
Newhouse Farm Cottages, Witheridge,
Tiverton, Devon, EX16 8QB
The retreat centre is about 3.5h drive from London (directions below) or 3h by train (Paddington to Tiverton) then 20 mins taxi. I will be coordinating our travels and possible car share journeys.
Newhouse Farm Cottages is a 30-minute drive from Junction 27 of the M5. Leave the motorway at Junction 27 and take the A361 North Devon Link Road towards Tiverton/Barnstaple. Leave the A361 at the first roundabout by turning left and following the signs to Witheridge and the B3137. Take the second exit on the first mini roundabout and at the next roundabout turn right (Kennedy Way), passing Morrisons supermarket on your left (straight across at that roundabout) and then turn right at the next roundabout. Look out for the sign for the B3137 to Witheridge, the second turning on the left (Long Drag Hill).
Drive through the villages of Withleigh and Nomansland and when you get to Witheridge drive through the village, passing on the right The Mitre Inn. Take the next right immediately after passing the church and drive down the hill. Cross the river at the bottom and bear right, signed Rose Ash. Follow the road up the valley beneath the trees and Newhouse Farm Cottages is the second entrance on the left.
