Breathe in the Lakes and Dales
Retreat for a Weekend Break
Our British relaxation retreat is about as rural as you could get, located right in between the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales. It is truly beautiful, located only a few metres from a beautiful common, river and weir.
Perfect for relaxing with the calming sounds of running water...
"Empty your Mind, be formless, shapeless, like water"
Bruce Lee
So excited to announce our "Breathe" Unplug and Recharge break in Maulds Maeburn!
Bring a friend or come alone. Everyone is welcome! So, why not join us and leave your worries at home?
Imagine a beautiful chapel in the idyllic countryside then imagine you are there, enjoying the beautiful Dale views, meeting likeminded people, and totally relaxing after a hard and demanding year, freeing your mind and thinking of your wellbeing.
There's a pared back approach to nutrition, with lots of good food and great wine. There’s even fizz on arrival.
There’s lots of “you” time planned, like gentle slow yoga, reading, craft session, a hike which takes in part of the Coast2Coast route and goes via an amazing local pub, plus empowerment stories to make it a break to remember. We can also change our suggested itinerary to suit any requirements.
There's also free time so you can have time alone or enjoy leisure activities at your pace. After all, this is a break just for you!
When you depart, take advantage of the beautiful Lakes, or go for a shopping spree or a spot of lunch for the day.
We are a pet-friendly chapel-turned-retreat, so please let us know if your little 4-legged friend will be joining you.
