    The Elemental Retreat brings the YogaHaus philosophy to life.

    Your days unfold slowly, guided by the rhythms of nature rather than a packed itinerary.

    Move when it is time to move.

    Eat together.

    Walk amongst ancient trees.

    Sit beside fire.

    Rest.

    Journal.

    Talk.

    Be quiet.

    Nothing to achieve. Nothing to prove.

    Just space to return to yourself.

The Rainforest

This retreat takes place within approximately 100 acres of Atlantic temperate rainforest, one of Britain’s rarest habitats.

Less than 1% of this habitat remains in the UK.

Ancient trees, moss-covered woodland, running water and extraordinary biodiversity create an environment that feels far removed from everyday life.

Here, nature isn’t something we schedule around the retreat.

Nature is the retreat.

Walk through it.

Practice within it.

Breathe with it.

Sit beside it.

Allow yourself to slow to its rhythm.

The elemental rhythm

Your days will unfold with rhythm, balance, and ritual.

Earth

Ground through movement, nourishment, ancient woodland and the physical body.

Water

Soften through wild water, woodland sauna, rest and release.

Fire

Gather around the fire for warmth, reflection, intention and transformation.

Air

Breathe. Meditate. Create space. Listen to what becomes audible when everything else gets quiet.

Together, the elements create the rhythm of your stay.

Rooted in wisdom

YogaHaus was born from more than a decade of exploration across yoga, meditation, Ayurveda and holistic wellbeing.

During the retreat, founder Layla will share a Decade of Wisdom experience - bringing together lessons gathered through practice and study across India, Nepal, Mexico, Peru and beyond, alongside her own journey from high performance to an embodied lifestyle.

Not a prescription for how to live.

An invitation to consider what and how you want to carry self in your own life.

Your home in the rainforest

Stay in one of 10 secluded eco-cabins nestled within the landscape.

Choose between:

Shared Cabin
Twin accommodation for those sharing the experience.

Private Cabin
A king-bed cabin for your own private retreat space.

The cabins intentionally keep you close to nature. Bathrooms are located separately in the beautifully appointed communal barn, with showers, toilets, toiletries and hairdryers provided.

💸 Investment

Your retreat includes accommodation, seasonal meals, yoga and movement, meditation, breathwork, workshops, rainforest experiences, woodland sauna, sound, fire circles, your private founder session and YogaHaus retreat gift.

Small by design

There are only 10 cabins

Keeping the retreat intimate allows us to create something increasingly rare: space.

Space for individual attention.

Space for meaningful conversation.

Space to disappear into the forest.

Space to be alone when you need it.

And space to feel held when you don’t.

Reserve your place

You do not need to be experienced in yoga.

You do not need to arrive feeling your best.

You do not need to become a different person while you are here.

Arrive as you are.

We’ll meet you there.
