The Endsleigh Wellness Retreat

5-9 February 2024

Endsleigh is situated on the border between Devon and Cornwall in the Tamar Valley.

Banish the winter blues

Whether you are looking to stay fit, consolidate your January resolution or just get started, join us for a wonderful week of strength training with Caroline Idiens of Carolines Curcuits, yoga with Tara Lee and beautiful country walks. I defy anyone to find a more beautiful spot in the whole of England. There is no traffic or aircraft noise, no light pollution, just the sound of the Tamar river.

Tara Lee has been teaching yoga for over 20 years. She brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to her practice. Named one of the UK’s top five yoga teachers by the Evening Standard specialising in vinyasa flow and pregnancy yoga. Tara will offer an evening practice mixing dynamic and restorative yoga with meditation and yoga Nidra (yogic sleep). This should leave you feeling stronger, more mindful and bursting with vitality.

Tara is also a registered nutritionist supporting clients with a range of goals including increasing energy and weight loss. Every guest will receive a complimentary 20 minute discovery session to discuss any questions or concerns. This can be followed up with a more in depth consultation at a discounted cost of £140 for 90 minutes. (This can either be done in person at Hotel Endsleigh or by zoom after the retreat).

Caroline Idiens has been a personal trainer for 22 years. In lockdown she took her 30 minute workouts online and now has the incredibly successful platform Caroline’s Circuits. Caroline specialises in strength workouts and functional training which she considers an essential part in any exercise routine. Caroline trains with hand held weights and bands and believes this is what makes the difference for our muscles, bones, overall fitness levels and mood. Her short workouts are carefully balanced and leave one feeling energised.

Head Chef, Tom Ewings, will prepare nutritionally rich menus for each day. Guests can enjoy a light or a full breakfast, light buffet lunch with a soup and a three-course evening meal. Guests will be given a guided walk of the extensive Repton gardens by Head Gardener, Ben Ruscombe-King, whose knowledge and anecdotes are restorative in themselves.
