Brock Cottage is a 7-bedroom country home located at the end of a private country track, just outside the peaceful hamlet of Foscot in the Cotswolds, a beautiful area of rolling hills, honey-coloured stone villages, and charming market towns.  The house is surrounded by an acre of softly landscaped, natural gardens and mature trees.  It also has an expansive front lawn dotted with impressive sculptures.  The bedrooms are very comfortable and some are ensuite.  There are 2 loft areas for sleeping that are sold at a discount, so if you don’t mind going up and down a ladder to get to your cozy sleeping space let us know!  The kitchen and dining area is a vast sunny open-plan space with several skylights allowing for loads of light even on the cloudiest of days.  Additionally, the Foxholes Nature Reserve is located a few short steps from the front gate of the cottage giving you access to many beautiful forest trails, with fields of beautiful bluebells in full bloom in the springtime.

More about the Retreat

Our Creative Cooking, Conscious Eating and Yoga Retreat will give you the opportunity to take part in cooking classes that will help you to become more creative in the kitchen. You will learn how to create meals that are healthy, delicious and fun to make. You will learn about macro-nutrient balance, times of the day for optimal digestion and assimilation, how stress affects digestion and why it's important to relax while eating.  More and more research is showing the important role that stress-reduction plays with illness on many levels. This weekend retreat will teach you the importance of slowing down and relaxing, and what that can mean for digestion, assimilation, and energy levels.

You will also learn about common allergens in foods and how to easily avoid them, as well as effective ways of balancing blood sugar. All recipes will be plant-based as well as dairy and gluten-free.

Daily yoga classes will also be part of the program and there will be a team of professional massage therapists on hand to give a variety of treatments, including foot reflexology, deep tissue massage, Thai massage, and organic facials.
