Yoga Retreats in Scotland

Forget museums, tweed and fish and chips! While these are all nice things to experience on the first trip to the UK, maybe, this great country is about so much more than these tourist staples. The unique geography of the lands which comprise it, for example, make most sites exceptionally suitable to mindfulness and meditation. 

If you’re looking for your next yoga vacation, you’ve probably noticed that there are two types you can choose from: yoga holidays and yoga retreats. But, how are they different?

I've arrived. I roll out my yoga mat. I'm in a gorgeous, luxury 'grand designs type' holiday home, booked 2 years ago when I was still earning good bucks working for a bank. With 2 spacious lounges and inspiring views from floor to ceiling windows of the beautiful shaped islands of Rum and Eigg in the North West of Scotland. What else could I possibly need right now?

The Golden Gate Bridge vs Disneyland; Yosemite vs Joshua Tree; Stanford vs USC. California is so big that its diversity has created somewhat of a mild debate about which end is cooler. But which one is better for a yoga retreat?
