Pilates & Cake weekend retreat

Indulgent Pilates retreat nestled in the tranquility of Dartmoor.

It's time to step out of the hum drum of daily life and concentrate on you (for a change).

No cooking, no cleaning or worrying about anyone else. This is all about YOU.

Totally relax. Move, feel & look better with daily Pilates.

Wallow in 'me time,' in this beautiful Manor house nestling in the rolling moors of Dartmoor, set in it's own charming gardens

Nourish your body with locally grown delicious food, with hearty homemade lunches, dinners , snacks (yummy cakes) & puds.

Take a dip in the hot tub, or sit in the secluded gardens and listen, there's no noise ! 

Let yourself enjoy your surroundings fully.

Have fun with the wine tasting , get out into nature on the moors with a local guide & enjoy the movie night with your favourite wine if you wish (you're welcome to bring your own).

Snooze away in the individual, tastefully decorated bedrooms, with en-suite bathrooms (many of which directly overlook the moors).

Leave feeling great, restored, re-energised and ready to get back into your daily life.

This is a ladies only retreat, suitable for all ages & abilities. 

It doesn't matter if you're new to Pilates, come along, relax and have some fun.

Start to relax as soon as you're on the driveway

And breathe - Wow what a view !
