A weekend of yoga, delicious home cooked food, rest and relaxation by the beautiful Kent coast

Practice yoga morning and evening; enjoy delicious yet healthy food prepared by our in house chef; choose to head to the beach, explore Ramsgate or nearby Margate or Broadstairs, or maybe take a stroll along the famous Kent coastline. Return home feeling renewed and restored!

What will the yoga be like?

We'll practice yoga morning and evening; in our light and airy yoga room (or outdoors if the weather allows! We have a large paved area in our back garden that would work perfectly for outdoor classes).

Start your day with an energising but mindful vinyasa flow. With a maximum of 13 people in class there will be ample opportunity for personal attention, and to deepen your practice by learning how to adapt the postures to best suit the needs of your own body. Each evening we'll wind down with a calming and grounding practice drawing on yin and restorative styles of yoga, rounded off with a guided relaxation. You'll float out of our evening sessions feeling relaxed, renewed and restored. In addition, we will also practice some simple meditation and breathing techniques that are perfect for keeping the stress free vibe going even after you get back home.

What will we eat?

Enjoy exceptional vegetarian meals carefully prepared by our talented chef Hannah. After working up an appetite on your mat each morning we’ll enjoy a healthy brunch. Think eggs, oats, smoothies, yoghurt, seasonal fruit salads, nuts and seeds and pastries, all washed down with fresh juices, teas and coffees. 

After evening practice we’ll round off the day with a delicious dinner. Our kitchen will also be kept fully stocked with snacks like bread, cheese, yoghurt, fruit, nuts, teas and coffees in case you get peckish during the day, or you could choose to walk to a nearby cafe or perhaps have lunch at the beach.

Vegan options available on request.

Where are we staying?

Our home for the weekend is a recently restored property in Ramsgate’s historic quarter with interesting period features and a huge garden. This historic house was probably built by a wealthy sea captain and was later a vets practice before sitting empty for some years. In 2024 the property underwent extensive renovation and was open to the public for two days in 2025 as part of the national Heritage Open Day event. Think quirky and homely rather than 5 star luxury! One of the owners of our venue is a well-known artist and some of his works and books are displayed throughout the property.

What else will there be to do?

This is your weekend so you are welcome to do as much or as little as you please. We positively encourage you take time for a nap if you wish, or relax with a book, either in our snug house or in the surrounding garden. We will have a wonderful masseuse, Rita, staying with us on site so you could also choose to treat yourself to a massage (or two!).

If you fancy heading out, our venue is set in Ramsgate town which has a bustling cafe scene, sandy beach and plentiful traditional fish and chips available. Or if you’re feeling more adventurous, maybe take on part of the famous Viking hiking trail around the Kent coast.

Interesting places to visit nearby include historic Sandwich and Canterbury with its world-renowned Cathedral, city walls and designer shopping and the nearby vineyards for Kent wine. We will also be within a short drive or train ride of the famous beach at Broadstairs and rapidly gentrifying Margate.

What have people thought of your other retreats?

“Once again Olivia hosted an amazing retreat (in Morocco). What a wonderful week, not only the twice daily amazing yoga sessions, but the food, weather and most of all the company. I don’t think I have laughed so much in years, and that is the honest truth. If you have never been on one of her retreats, then you need to book on the next one. We had such a fabulous time and the whole group were lovely, funny and kind people. Thank you Olivia for delivering way beyond expectations every time.” — JLY and JF, 2023

“Just back from a great yoga retreat with Olivia in southern Spain. V relaxed retreat in a gorgeous place, with a great ambience and lovely yoga teaching from Olivia. Can’t recommend highly enough!” — RD, 2023

“Where shall I start? Tears after the last morning of yoga, says it all. I had the most relaxing and memorable yoga retreat. The venue was spacious and perfectly located with amazing views! An idyllic place to relax with plenty of space to socialise. The freshly prepared and cooked foods and visits to the local village were highlights but best of all, I met, laughed and spent wonderful time with fun loving beautiful people. Thank you so much, Olivia.” — AA, 2019

“Hi Olivia - I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the retreat! After a really busy period it was just the ticket and perfectly balanced in terms of yoga sessions, things to do and time to ourselves. You were also an incredible host and the sunset yoga was amazing!! I felt like I got a lot out of the sessions, all of which I'm hoping to remember in classes (although I'll put my hands up to possibly being lazy and forgetting at times! ). FYI, also going to be booking in for me and a friend for the January London retreat day :)” - DP, 2019

“I thought the yoga was great, the food was delicious, my room and the villa was absolutely delightful, and the company was lovely. Thank you for organising such a lovely week! It was much needed, massively relaxing, and I learnt loads too, as well as it being tons of fun.” - AM, 2018
