A-ma-zing! My husband and I went skiing with Our Retreat in March 2022. Food was delicious. The other 'clients' were so much fun and the organisation was brilliant. It was really a great week. I would highly recommend Our Retreat.
Our retreat provides a safe, inviting and enjoyable space to reconnect with yourself and commune with likeminded individuals who prioritise their health and well being. Lisa works very hard to create a special space and invites teachers who provide something a little different yet all believe in the same values in terms of being kind to yourself. It’s a special, restful and restorative experience. And the food is always nourishing and delicious!
Having been on 2 trips with Our Retreat, I can safely say how enjoyable, memorable & fantastic these retreats are. I can thoroughly recommend the UK weekend trip as an opportunity to completely switch off, be surrounded by lovely like minded people & nature. I first went on a trip with Our Retreat to Chamonix in France. The first solo trip I had ever taken. I was welcomed by Lisa & met 1 of my closest friends. Don't hesitate in clicking that book now button, go ahead, let go & take it all in!
I went to Our Retreat a couple of years ago at a very difficult time in my life I was worried about going alone. But the minute I turned up Lisa was there with Richie and instantly made me feel welcome. The whole atmosphere was amazing and immediately I felt better. The food, accommodation was 100% and I'm not vegetarian but it was so good. One day I wasn't great mentally but Lisa took the time to talk to me and shared something personal about her life really helped me alot. Richie was a star loved his classes and he was super fun. The whole experience was amazing I had planned to return but covid and I'll health was a barrier hopefully I'll return soon. I give it 5 stars all day long 💜
A perfect way to reconnect with yourself. Beautiful accommodation. Absolutely scrumptious food. Amazing yoga and Pilates classes. I felt 10 years younger after a weekend with Our Retreat. I can thoroughly recommend this treat to everyone.
I had the absolute best experience with our retreat. I attended an Italian yoga & pilates retreat pre covid and couldn’t fault any of it. Lisa was such a fantastic and welcoming host, really taking the time to get to know everyone and really made me feel at home. The teachers were fantastic, along with the incredible accommodation and delicious food. I tell everyone about it because it was truly such a beautiful week that had a real impact on some life challenges I was experiencing at the time. I can’t say thank you enough & hope to join a retreat again!
I joined Lisa, Lottie and Emily on the fabulous Yoga and Pilates retreat in Le Marche, Italy. It was my first retreat so although I was mainly excited, I was also apprehensive. As soon as I met everyone on the first day, I felt totally at ease. Lisa, Lottie and Emily were all so welcoming. It was lovely to be on an intimate retreat with such inspiring teachers and retreaters. The villa was absolutely stunning and super luxurious with a spa, pool and tennis court, not to mention the delicious food. Lottie and Emily are both extremely good at what they do and great fun; couldn’t have asked for a better duo. A particular highlight was the cycling trip through the gorgeous hills of the region. I would not hesitate to join another retreat with Our Retreat and would highly recommend to others
I attended a yoga weekend with a friend. It was like a total escape. From start to finish we were looked after. The accommodation superb and the food exceptional. There’s something so wholesome about taking time out for yourself. It might seem expensive but both my friend I agreed that actually, we felt it was very good value for money given the classes and the luxurious feel to the weekend. You also don’t need to be experienced at yoga- I was a relative newbie and was made to feel very welcome with classes tailored appropriately. It was best yoga classes I had ever been too. I will definitely be back. And indulgent but good for your weekend, good for the body, mind and soul. Thank you Lisa, Chloe and al the team.
what can i say other than it was absolute heaven to be on the retreat with Lisa and her team in Ibiza just before Covid. Lisa is a class act and having done other retreats i can honestly say that the elegant touches with Lisa take her retreat to a higher level. Every detail was considered, it was fun and active but also extremely relaxing and tranquil. Lisa is very generous with her time and the extras that other spas and retreats just don't add. Every day was magical and it really was a week in paradise. Excellent value for money.
I had the absolute pleasure of attending Our Retreat’s Pilates & Yoga Retreat in Somerset in March 2022. I had never been on a retreat before so I was a little apprehensive; however, from the minute I arrived at 42 Acres and stepped through the door of the stunning farmhouse I felt at ease, relaxed and part of a lovely new little family. The group was very mixed but everyone got on so well - it was lovely to be surrounded by and get to know such a great group of people. The weekend was very well organised and Lisa was simply amazing. It was so lovely that as the organiser, Lisa took part in all activities (including the lake swim!) and meal times with us. And the guided meditation sessions that Lisa lead were just incredible and powerful - a number of the visualisations have really stuck with me! For me, a huge highlight was meeting and attending classes with Lottie & Emily - both of whom are the loveliest ladies you could hope to meet. Their classes were so brilliant and a dream come true to attend. Their knowledge and teaching styles are so inspiring - I can’t praise them enough! And the setting of the yurt made the classes even more spectacular. The food throughout the weekend was delicious. I loved learning about the Soil to Gut philosophy of 42 Acres and sampling their unique dishes. I’ve even brought some of the recipes home with me- the Ginger & Buckwheat Biscuits are a particular fav! The activities were all totally fab - the lake swim in particular was awesome! I’d never done any wild swimming before so I almost chickened out…but I’m so glad I did it. I felt so amazing and energised afterwards. I’ve since invested in a DryRobe for more wild swims! The house and accommodation were lovely and comfortable, with everything you need for a relaxing stay. The goodies on arrival were a nice touch too. Whilst on the retreat I made an incredible friendship with one of the other guests. I have never bonded with anyone so quickly and I know we’ll be friends for life! I genuinely felt so sad to say our goodbyes on the Sunday. The retreat was so well organised and 42 Acres is an incredibly special place. I can honestly say I enjoyed every second of the experience and cannot wait to attend another Our Retreat again soon!
We had an amazing time on the UK retreat. My wife was about 6 months pregnant and Lisa and Jade were so helpful and made her feel so welcome. The food was amazing, and having our phones off for two days was so nice! If you are on the fence, just do it you won’t regret it!
I love Our Retreat. It's my happy place and restores and energises me. I've been back to the UK one three times now and each has been wonderful. Different teachers, same beautiful location, delicious food and relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. I've even been wild swimming twice (my family are still stunned!). Would highly recommend.
I have visited our retreat twice, the first time I was absolutely blown away by the venue and the grounds. It is magical, the yurt that the yoga is practiced is the most special place. The rooms are gorgeous, comfortable and the perfect fit for a weekend retreat. The food is another level, I have a food allergy and am always looked after and catered for. The food is all fresh and homemade and mostly grown at 42 acres… wow! There are beautiful walks, down time to read or nap or chat, and plenty of gorgeous yoga and other activities :) The two times I have visited I have had different yoga teachers, jade and Chloe, I have continued my yoga practice with jade from my first retreat and she has taught me everything I know. She has changed me and I can’t thank her enough. Going on these retreats are the best gift I have ever given myself…. If you are wondering whether to go, or wondering if it is worth the money…. IT IS! Do it, you won’t regret a single moment. Only that you didn’t do this sooner! Thank you Lisa and the team xx
I booked this retreat at the last minute and Lisa handled everything with such ease. For a first timer, I was pretty nervous about what the whole experience would be like and worried whether I would enjoy it or not! I could not recommend the Somerset retreat highly enough and still wish I could go on one every month! The cottage was superb, beautiful interior and a perfect setting. For someone who hasn’t tried many vegan dishes, I came away from the retreat really wanting to add more vegan dishes to my life, they were full of flavour and a truly rewarding meal after the workouts. The trainers were lovely and welcoming, they put your body to work and really did unlock and reset my body. I’ve recommended Our Retreat to so many friends and hope to go on one again very soon! If you’re in doubt about booking, don’t be, it’ll be the best decision you’ll ever make!
Our Retreat was my first yoga retreat and it did not disappoint! Every detail of the weekend was sowell thought out, from the accommodation to the delicious healthy food to the mix of yoga and breathwork. Incredible teachers and a warm and friendly environment. I had the best time and can't wait to go on another Our Retreat, definitely will become a yearly treat to myself.
A truly memorable experience mixing with lovely people in a stunning setting. The teaching, classes and support were first class. I achieved my aims ... and some. Thank you to everyone involved in offering this top retreat.
A really well organised and friendly retreat in a beautiful setting, with first class yoga and pilates teaching, beautiful country walks, wild swimming and seasonal, healthy food. Would highly recommend - feel refreshed, challenged and restored after my weekend.
This was our first retreat as a couple. Met all expectations and even more. We loved the schedule for each day and the wholesome vegetarian food, something we wouldn't normally be accustomed to. We both returned home feeling the benefits from the meditation, yoga and Pilates.. Thanks to Lisa, Emily, Lottie and all the staff at 42 acres.. Olive & Niall
I wanted a retreat that felt really luxurious as well as healing and this was absolutely perfect. The accommodation is warm and luxurious with log fires (in winter!) and stunning scenery. The yoga hut is so peaceful and has a log burner, which was magical. The food is amazing and the passion of the 42 Acres team has changed the way I view food and try to eat. I was able to turn my phone off and just focus on rediscovering myself, which was so desperately needed. Yogi Jade coped really well with a range of yoga skills and I got a huge amount out of all the sessions provided. I didn't think it could get any better until I had a massage from Catriona, who is similarly lovely and very skilled at identifying the sore spots! I can't recommend this highly enough. Thank you Lisa and Jade xx
I picked OurRetreat for my first ever yoga retreat experience and it was much better and more than I could have expected. Lisa runs a wonderful retreat experience and meditation sessions. Yogi, Jade, ran brilliant Yoga sessions that were perfectly paced. The food was incredible as was the venue and I hope to be back there soon for an OurRetreat experience. Finally, it was a great group of friendly and interesting people which topped off the whole weekend. Much love and thanks Lisa, Jade and team! xx
