Yoga & Meditation There are no regular classes or resident teachers, but guests are welcome to use the space during their stay — for personal practice, reading, journal-ing, or quiet time alone. Occasional teacher-led retreats are held in collaboration with invited practitioners. These are announced seasonally, depending on interest and availability.
The Forest Shala
A short walk from the farmstay, tucked into the forest, is the Forest Shala — a quiet space for yoga, meditation, and retreats. Traditionally hand-built from local stone and wood, the shala has a pitched tin roof and large glass windows that invite light through the trees. A wood-fired masonry heater, fuelled with apple wood from the orchard, warms the hall, the adjoining sitting room, and the three small Sky View Rooms above.
Outside, you’ll find space for quiet reflection — under pine and oak, or beneath a Virginia creeper-covered pergola. Guests often speak of the calm that comes from simply sitting, walking, or forest bathing in the stillness around.
