Embrace the dark nights and shorter days of winter, and relax in our beautiful hotel by the sea in St Mawes. Rediscover your strength and inner potential. Enjoy a morning swim each day (for those brave enough) and yoga with Zephyr Wildman. There will be a shamanic sound journey with Richard Down and his wife Kat, delicious food and expanded horizons.
‘The pace is slower here, the weather a little milder and without the hordes that congregate for summer sailing, it feels extra special’

Zephyr Wildman
Yoga instructor
Zephyr Wildman has been teaching yoga for over 20 years and will be leading the 1.5 hours of vinyasa yoga each morning and 1.5 hours of restorative practices and yoga nidra in the evening. Zephyr will be integrating psychology and yoga asana with yogic philosophy, highlighting a discipline that brings balance to body and mind on what she calls, ‘the middle path’.
This is Zephyr’s ninth retreat with The Polizzi Collection and for those that don’t know her you are in for a treat. You will be in very knowledgeable hands.
‘There’s something quite magical about November at the supremely cosy Tresanton Hotel in St Mawes, overlooking the postcard-perfect Falmouth Bay. Here, in between cosy fireside chats with home-brewed herbal teas and still-warm Tunisian orange cake, Wildman guides both established and budding yogis through daily yoga and meditation practice, while Polizzi, a conscious breathwork expert, shares simple practices that will help us all better tune in to our internal rhythms and feel happier and more grounded within ourselves.’
