Close your eyes for a second. Imagine the feeling of warm, golden sunlight hitting your skin, not the weak, watery sun we’ve been seeing lately, but the real, soul-drenching warmth of the Spanish spring. Imagine the scent of wild rosemary and orange blossoms drifting on a mountain breeze, and the only sound you can hear is the gentle trickle of a nearby stream.
Does that feel like a world away from your current Tuesday morning? It doesn’t have to be.
We are exactly one month away from our SOLAR Retreat in the Pizarra Mountains (April 9-13, 2026), and I have a little secret to share. We have a few final spots that are just waiting for the right souls to fill them. Because I want this group to be complete, and because I believe so deeply in the restorative power of this specific escape, I’m opening up a FLASH SALE.
For a very limited time, you can join us in Andalusia from just £750 per person (excluding flights). This is your invitation to pause, breathe, and find your power from within.
Why Spain? Why Now?
April is a magical time in Andalusia. The mountains are lush, the air is fresh, and the heat hasn’t yet become the heavy blanket of mid-summer. It is the perfect environment for a wellness retreat. Our home for these five days is tucked away in the Pizarra Mountains, a place of total seclusion where the modern world feels like a distant memory.
This retreat’s theme is solar power. Like the place the group will be staying at, you are powered by the sun—and you can make great changes to your life (and your mind) by creating new patterns of light and shadow internally. We’ll use the theme organically and interweave it through the food, meditations, and yoga practices, and most importantly, respond to the group dynamic.
Truly witnessing your Higher Self requires a desire for self-inquiry—and a willingness to turn the light inward. New Forest Retreats’ yoga programs provide a nourishing space for observing your vast inner world, inspired by the beauty of the outer landscapes.
Seeing the planet’s health as a reflection of the health of the self, I believe yoga is a tool to create the profound changes and shifts necessary to healing your relationship with yourself, each other, and the natural world.
Yoga is a means of rewilding from within—unpeeling the layers that prevent you from acting from your inherent peace and power, and thriving as you naturally should: in harmony with nature. Over the retreat we’ll work with Vinyasa flowing yoga, Yin (a restorative type of yoga), movement, Partner yoga, pranayama, chants, and meditations to bring awareness and balance to every cell.
The Practice: Breathe, Feast, Flow
Whether you are a seasoned yogi or someone who has only just begun to roll out their mat, this yoga retreat is for you. My approach is always nurturing and inclusive, there is no ego here, only exploration.
Immerse yourself in pristine beauty for six days and:
- Enjoy two daily sessions of outdoor yoga and meditation sessions on the outdoor wooden deck, gazing at the view, and watching the sun set in savasana.
- Bathe in the solar-heated pool and soak up some poolside rays as you relax with a good book.
- Practice chanting, breath development, chances to explore drawing, wild swimming, walks, nature connection, and plenty of free time to relax and assimilate.
- Spend evenings chatting, reading, or gazing at the stars in comfy chill areas.
- Enjoy the poolside cinema at night.
The retreat is designed for you to have lots of time to relax and reconnect, so of course everything is optional.

A Sanctuary for the Soul
One of the highlights of this specific Spanish Finca is the incredible spa facilities. We aren’t just talking about a quick dip in a pool. We have access to a solar-heated salt water pool that feels like a warm hug, a steaming sauna, and a traditional hammam.
After our morning practice, you might find yourself drifting between the steam room and a lounger, staring out at the mountain views. It’s about giving yourself permission to do absolutely nothing. If you’ve been feeling the weight of the “mental load” lately, this is the place to drop it.
And then there are the moments that make this retreat feel like a proper, pinch-me sanctuary:
- A poolside cinema night under the stars—wrapped in a blanket, feet up, the water shimmering nearby.
- Optional adventure day: wild lake swimming (for the brave) and a hike along the Camino Trail—then home to the quiet calm of the mountains.
- Evenings spent chatting and reading in the comfy chill areas—no agenda, no rushing, just soft landing after soft landing.
It’s the ultimate europe yoga retreats experience—luxury meets wild nature, with plenty of space to be exactly as you are.

Sunshine on a Plate
If you know me, you know that food is my love language. As a Leiths-trained chef, I take the “feast” part of our “Breathe, Feast, Flow” motto very seriously. You won’t find any restrictive, bland “retreat food” here. Instead, you’ll find vibrant, gourmet vegan and vegetarian meals that celebrate the local produce of Spain.
Think colourful vegan tapas, zesty salads, and nourishing mains that leave you feeling energized rather than heavy. We eat together, sharing stories and laughter over long, candlelit tables. It’s about nourishment in every sense of the word. Many of my guests say the food is their favourite part of the trip, and I’m totally okay with that! You might even find some of our signature recipes making an appearance.

Your Home in the Mountains
Where you rest your head is just as important as where you practice. This is five nights of accommodation in our mountain sanctuary—designed to help you exhale properly, sleep deeply, and feel held by nature.
You get to choose the stay that fits you best:
Glamping magic if you want a closer connection to the earth: teepees, pods, or domes, tucked away in the trees. Or get close to nature and sleep under the glittering stars in your very own fully furnished teepee or geodome where you will be lulled to sleep by the sound of cicadas.
Comfy finca rooms in the traditional Spanish farmhouse—full of character, thick stone walls, and cool, quiet corners. You can choose to stay in the beautifully restored Andalucian finca.
The luxury glamping setup, your private cocoon in the wild.
