An autumn weekend retreat at Langcliffe Hall near Settle, North Yorkshire
16-18 October 2026 **fully booked / contact me for future dates**
This year’s autumn retreat will be held at Langcliffe Hall, a stunningly beautiful Grade II listed Jacobean Manor house, nestled in the hills of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, in the small village of Langcliffe, near Settle.
We will be accommodated within the house, which will be ours for the weekend. And we will take our practices in the fully equipped yoga shala, with views through the French doors to the wonderful gardens and Blua Crag beyond.
I hope you can join me in this magical place, for a weekend of transformative yoga practice, wonderful food, submersion in nature and, of course, great company.
Programme
The weekend will start from 4pm on Friday and run until after lunch on Sunday. A full programme of around 6 sessions will be offered across the weekend – exploring pranayama, meditation, dynamic and restorative asana practices – with a pre-bed gong bath each evening. Participants are welcome to attend as many or as few of the sessions as they wish. All levels of practice will be catered for.
There will be free time on Saturday afternoon, with the option of a group hike (and a cold dip for those who want, in Catrigg Foss) Or you may choose some quiet personal time for walking, resting, reading or journaling.

A hearty brunch will be served after the morning practice, and dinner + dessert after the evening practice. Fear not, cake will also be available in the afternoon! Tea/coffee will be available to self-serve throughout the day. Dietary requirements can be catered for (very specialised menus may incur an additional charge).

The cold water babies amongst us will be able to make use of the submerged spring water tank – for an energizing cool plunge (or several) across the weekend.
