The Herdwick Huts & Lake District Yoga Retreats

Apr 30th, 2023

I stayed at the huts on a yoga retreat with sarah in October 2021. I went alone and as a young woman I was a little nervous, but once I got there and met the other lovely ladies joining it made me feel so comfortable. Sarah was an amazing host, with so much detail and everything you need in the shepards huts to the tranquil location of the yoga yurt. Located in a private forest up a short but steep walk. Absolutely stunning. Mixing nature with yoga just helped me feel so grounded. We did 4 hours of yoga a day, and then were left to spend our day however we wished. Which was perfect as they were located in the middle of so many beautiful walks, and the small lakes towns. Absolutely amazing! I have since been back to a day yoga session, where we all brought and shared food and connected. Sarah has such a way of making everyone feel important, seen and cared for. The yoga yurt is my favourite place on earth and I cant wait to return again already! Thank you Sarah so much for the comforting vibes, your amazing knowledge on yoga, sharing your yoga yurt, and the beautiful warming vibes you give out every time. The best lady with the best retreats would so highly recommend!

Stayed here for a long weekend with my partner. What a wonderful location, it really is paradise! The accommodation is so cosy and relaxing and you naturally begin to slip into a calmer way of being. What a great holiday - I have not had that much fun in a very long time!! Try out the crystal clear wild swimming pools - breathtaking :O)

A wonderful weekend Yoga retreat, with plenty of time to explore the local area too. Sarah gives a very warm, personalised and welcoming experience. She's a terrific yoga teacher, very adaptable to different needs and levels. The yoga yurt, a short drive and hike away from the huts, in a idyllic hillside forest near Grasmere is amazing. The shepherds huts are very cosy and well-equipped for a relaxing off-grid break. Definitely plotting a return trip and urging friends to go! Kudos for all the flexibility shown too, my original trip was postponed due to March 2020 lockdown and Sarah made every effort to accommodate and communicate with us and reschedule as soon as it was safe to do so and paid special attention to all the extra Covid-secure requirements needed.
