Guest Reviews

We've met some great people who have said lovely things about our yoga holidays.  We'll never let it go to our heads though.    Listen below to video comments or, scroll down to read  comments replicated exactly from guest feedback forms.

"As an international athlete I'm always looking to improve my physical and mental performance.  Yoga and pilates with Yoga breaks hit absolutely the right note on both fronts.  Not only were the classes tailored perfectly to challenge each person at their own level but the additional workshops and advice about meditation, breath control and yoga practice were applicable to both myself as an athlete and my sister, who is a first time exercise participant.  I can't express my thanks enough for the wonderful time we had,  came back feeling ready to return to competitive training with all guns blazing and my sister is now a convert to both yoga and pilates.   We can't wait to join you again next year.  Thanks again. " Rachael Mackenzie, September '11

"I came knowing nothing about Yoga & Pilates but have learnt so much - particularly with regard to breathing.  I have had the most amazing time and feel I have achieved a great deal and have met some incredible people who have made a great impact on my life."  Carole,  September '11

 "Gary & Nicole you strike just the right balance between being absolutely attentive to everyone's needs and allowing us space to enjoy the holiday in our own way.  That makes for a very comfortable and enjoyable experience.  The yoga I found challenging - it has made me want to get out of the gym class rut and find a teacher who offers me more variety and stimulus.   Thanks for a great holiday!"  Wendy, October '11

"I want to say a huge thank you for a wonderful holiday.  You have a fantastic talent for doing a brilliant job of looking after everybody and making it look so effortless.  I loved all the yoga, and was thrilled to manage a few new things - walking up the wall into headstand, almost getting up into crow, and getting into wild thing without too much difficulty.   It's fun to try new asanas, especially when they look almost impossible, and I can at least get part way into them, with your patient and thorough guidance."  Irene, October '11

"I spent a long time looking for a yoga retreat  & when I found yours, I just knew it was the right one.  I was completely right - its been exactly what I needed and more than I imagined I needed!  Having the extra activities & therapies on offer completes the whole package perfectly.  Thank you both so very much for this precious holiday."  Tara - September '10

"You care so much that everyone gets what they want from the holiday.  A lot of thought has gone into the programme and yoga classes & this shines through.   I had a relaxing, enjoying, energizing fun time - thanks so much."  Clare - April '10

"A thoroughly relaxing break that perfectly balanced some challenging yoga, indulgent pampering, excellent food and a real rest"  Alison - September '10 

"Your passion and commitment to getting it right is wonderful.  Thank you for everything & helping me conquer some new postures" Angela - June 09

"I have never before felt so calm, rejuvenated and cared for in such a short space of time.  Much more than a stress buster.  I've learnt so much I can apply in my current life to help me with stress & emotional times".  Marion - May '09

"It's been calming, liberating, a sense of well-being throughout and full of personal touches.  You clearly care about & are genuinely interested in people and giving them a good time & service.   I've come back home & feel ready to 'commit' more to yoga and come back to see you again for more" Alex  - April '08

"I have been on residential weekends in the UK but your holiday surpassed those.  I would not hesitate to recommend you & the bad news is ... I'll be back!"  Noel - March '08

"The yoga was excellent.  It was great to learn new moves.  The attention and warmth towards the group from Nicole & Gary made me feel part of a relaxing family environment".  Felicity - June '09
