A yoga retreat with a focus on tapping into that feeling of vitality as we journey towards lighter days and warmer temperatures.
Enjoy a full yoga schedule led by Nicole, a 500hr teacher who has been teaching for over 10 years. Classes will be breath-centred and flowing, with an emphasis on somatic awareness, mindfulness and shaking off the heaviness of winter. You will enjoy a mixture of vinyasa, hatha and yin, exploring all of the different areas of the practice, from breathwork and movement to mudra and meditation. The schedule will cater for all levels.

From your room, you will access the pretty courtyard, which leads to the barn, a stunning, purpose-built studio with underfloor heating as well as a double-height sunny dining area and a cosy sitting room with log stoves.

About Nicole
Nicole Mackintosh 500hr RYT Experienced Yoga Teacher (Vinyasa & Yin)
Nicole is an experienced (500hr certified) yoga teacher and functional medicine health coach with a passion for health, wellness, and helping people actualise their true potential, whether it be through movement, breathwork, nutrition or lifestyle.
As a yoga teacher for 10 years, I love to teach the seamless flows of vinyasa creatively and safely with a focus on an anatomical goal or philosophical quality. Seeing students build strength and awareness physically, emotionally and energetically is truly inspiring for me. I teach vinyasa, yin, breath work and meditation and have been lucky enough to train across various disciplines with some amazing, leading teachers. I draw inspiration from all of these learnings to create fluid classes, yet have direction, creative, focused and breath-centred yet fun.
I like to encourage students to become aware of their body’s potential and inspire positive shifts they can take off their mat and into their everyday lives.
My classes are influenced by my passion for fluidity and creativity in life. I enjoy teaching across all levels, from beginners to advanced, young to old, believing that yoga is 100% for everyone.
Passionate about helping people live their best lives, Nicole also offers functional medicine health coaching to enable people to reach their health goals through and dietary, lifestyle and therapeutic interventions.

What People Say…
“Nicole is an incredible yoga teacher. She is skilled in anatomical analysis of her student’s individual needs and is able to modify for injury, help with alignment and see what needs to be changed or worked on for the student to progress in their practice. Nicole’s sequencing skills are clever, playful and well-put together. Nicole often works with peak pose sequencing and is able to break down a complicated pose, allowing her to choose intelligent preparatory poses to put into a flow class, enabling clear instruction, and allowing people to learn how to move into a peak pose without disrupting flow Nicole has a gentle, warm, funny but firm personality. Her students adore her but, at the same time, are guided by her professionalism. An unusual combination. I highly recommend Nicole.”
Catherine Wilkinson
“I was so excited to have Nicole teach at my Yoga Retreat. She was the perfect combination of strength and calmness for the event! Nicole has a wealth of knowledge from her various trainings, which shows in her teachings. The students love her warm energy and her encouragement to try a little more. I recommend Nicole as a yoga instructor and put my full confidence in her ability to fulfil her position wherever she goes.”
Claudia Uffhaus
“I have loved your classes and feel like I have learnt so much, especially after initially feeling vulnerable post-c-section. Your wonderful balance of creativity and precision is something I haven’t experienced before, and it has been so lovely to have a practice that has been both fun and challenging.”
Stacey Heanue
The lessons with you are such a highlight in my day, my back is better, my foot is much better, my sciatica is bearable- and my mental health benefits, too! You are amazing, and it’s a gift to have met you. I know this is your job, but you still deserve praise! I always acknowledge true skill as it is not so common.”
Isabelle Rassaerts
“I do lots of different forms of exercise and was looking for something more thoughtful – the slow flow class has been exactly that. From the considered introduction to each class, through the clear instructions at every stage, to the restoring savasana at the end – I can’t recommend it highly enough. Nicole is a wonderful teacher, she brings a calm, centred presence to guide you through the flow. I love the class and leave feeling taller, lighter and calmer.”
