Are you thinking about organising a Retreat at Wern-y-Cwm? Wonderful Escapes was listed first in The Guardian's Best Places to Stay for a Wellness Break in the UK, 2025
You are welcome to arrange a self-managed retreat at Wern-y-Cwm. However, if you would like a tailored service we are here to support you. With 40 years of experience in planning and running events, we know how to provide the right vibe, and locally sourced food to suit your preferences, book our in-house holistic therapist and help arrange your travel as required. With our fully managed service, you can concentrate on teaching.
We have plenty of options for yoga sessions in the gardens; from the front lawn with incredible views, to the mountain top at dawn or using the grass amphitheater or Wern-y-Wellness garden on a dry summer's day. In colder months the Great Barn offers awesome space options by the fire, overlooking the valley, or with a view of the mountain. For more information and special prices for smaller groups, please get in touch.
“Yin / Insight Yoga and the Wisdom of Maitri” - 4 Night Silent Retreat with Olivia Clarke, an opportunity for profound rest and deep Wintering
Returning for the third year running, Olivia loves to guide people into the depths of Winter. Wintering is an invitation to deepen, hibernate, rest as the Earth does, gather collectively around roaring log fires, as we winter together and enjoy the nourishing beauty of silence, deep yin, and wisdom of Maitri. Wisdom is a slow, gradual deepening, blooming, flourishing, as we come to know ourselves, in more loving ways. Maitri is the practice of making friends with ourselves, unconditionally and wholeheartedly. You sit with yourself. You move closer, no matter what’s going on. You don’t try to get rid of anything. You recognize your humanity. You learn to stay. Maitri strengthens us with stability and steadfastness. It also softens us. You are invited to rest back and relax deeply into the present moment.
Each of Olivia's retreats sells out, so book early to avoid disappointment.
