Accommodation

Check-in Time:
15:30
Check-out Time:
10:00

Sunny Brow Farm’s retreat accommodations are beautifully renovated barn conversions. There are four barns renovated into self-contained barn cottages. Two cottages take up the upper and lower parts of a Lakeland bank barn, and two are smaller and separate. All barns have bedroom/s, bathroom/s, living space, kitchen and dining area. The barns have been lovingly renovated to allow modern fittings, and style, to sit alongside the old barn features and optional log burners. Characterful, yet with modern comfort, the barn accommodation will fulfill all your needs. They are all equipped with good Wi-Fi.

The yoga studio and massage rooms are nestled within the area of the barn conversions, and the studio overlooks woodlands and sheep pastures.

Itinerary of barns

  • The Old Dairy – a ground floor barn cottage with two private bedrooms – one double and one single - which share a bathroom and living space. This barn is also where retreat guests eat communally on a large oak table.
  • Sunny Brow Barn – one bedroom that can be twin or double ensuite, with private living space.
  • The Hayloft – upper floor barn cottage in a large renovated hay barn. Two twin or double ensuite bedrooms, that share a large open plan living space.
  • Bracken Barn – one bedroom that can be twin or double ensuite, with private living space.

Program

Woven with careful thought from over 10 years’ experience of running retreats, our itinerary is full and ample, yet inclusive of personal space for your own adventures. Each Yoga session becomes bespoke for the group gathered, and can suit beginner or advanced practitioners.

This retreat includes twice daily yoga and meditation, a personal massage, wholesome organic wholefoods, and a chance to vision board creatively for your next cycle. Allow the retreat to help bring you the energy and nourishment you need to bring into being that which you wish to create this new year. Step into the new year feeling revitalized and nourished.

Retreat location

Sunny Brow Farm is a beautifully renovated old Cumbrian farm, set within the hills and dales of the Lake District National Park. This allows easy access to the lakes, rivers, forests, villages and beautiful hikes within the stunning South Lake District.

Sunny Brow Farm itself is nestled in the dale near Black Fell, with streams, sheep pasture land and woodland directly on the doorstep. Being in such close proximity to nature is such a gift for a quiet and natural stay. The nearest village is Hawkshead (5-minute drive), and the nearest small town is Ambleside (10-minute drive).

This Yoga Retreat is vegetarian-friendly

Food

Sunny Brow Farm's food ethos is to nourish our bodies with natural, elegant and really tasty plant-based cuisine. A love of seasonal, organic, home grown, and wild foods from nature’s garden, influence their menus. Using inspiration from these elements we consciously plan and prepare the menus for the retreats. The menus are always seasonal to allow for a deeper connection to nature’s gifts at each time of year.

Their approach is rooted in macrobiotic principles, emphasising gut health through healthy plant-based foods, whole grains, and optimum preparation methods like fermentation. They prioritise a rich variety of vegetables, and predominantly unprocessed, plant-based ingredients. Sunny Brow Farm maintains a fully gluten-free and refined sugar-free menu. While their focus is primarily on plant-based foods, they occasionally incorporate natural organic yoghurt and farm-fresh eggs. They pride themselves in catering for all food intolerances at no extra cost to the guest.

On retreat everyone enjoys meal times around a large oak table in their Old Dairy barn, a social space to enjoy like-minded fellow retreat guests, and the gifts of foods cooked, prepared and served with love. They serve two large eclectic meals each day; plus, lighter breakfast and afternoon tea snacks are also available.

The following meals are included:

  • Brunch
  • Dinner
  • Drinks

The following drinks are included:

  • Water
  • Tea

The following dietary requirement(s) are served and/or catered for:

  • Vegetarian
  • Vegan
  • Gluten Free
  • Organic
  • Lactose Free
  • Whole food
  • Ayurvedic
If you have special dietary requirements it's a good idea to communicate it to the organiser when making a reservation

Things to do (optional)

The itinerary shows all the inclusive sessions on-site. On Yoga Medicine Retreats, Sunny Brow Farm does not offer any facilitated off-site excursions, but due to their location in the lake district many people choose to do their own hikes and/or wild swims. They can give our recommendations for this if you wish.

You can also do the following:

  • Book an extra treatment from the spa list below
  • Cosy down in your barn living space – maybe in front of a fire - with a book (there is a yoga/holistic book library if you wish), and cup of tea or cacao (extra costs for logs and cacao)
  • Enjoy Lakeland walk/hike (varying from easy or more challenging)
  • Wild swimming locally
  • Enjoy a trip to Sacred Essence, a wonderful local shop (10-minute drive) selling great holistic goods.
  • Enjoy a trip to Hawkshead village, Ambleside, Windermere or Coniston
