Yoga retreats in Scotland

“I needed a break from my home life after cancelling a retreat in May due to my husband being in the hospital after a serious accident.

I saw this retreat and it sounded perfect. Not too far away to drive to, out in the countryside, good food, a mix of yoga and meditation, a sauna and hot tub on offer and it suited my needs.

I felt cherished and valued after spending time at Samantha’s retreat. So relaxed and recharged.

Samantha was a fabulous host and an excellent yoga and meditation teacher. I had recently had surgery and I was well looked after. And the food - possibly the best vegetarian food I’ve tasted. Simply delicious and so healthy.”

“The Woll retreat had everything: a comfortable bed, breathtaking views, fab facilities (I particularly enjoyed the sauna before retiring), and even a great masseuse! The food was seriously good, and you were never hungry. Sam was a great teacher adapting her lessons so that you could participate no matter what level you were at. I learned a lot and came away feeling ready to tackle the challenges in my life. A quick shout-out to my fellow retreaters, who made the weekend a lot of fun. And a huge thank you to Sam and her team, who thought of everything. If you are looking for the perfect getaway and a chance to kick-start yourself, I recommend you book yourself into a Woll Retreat. You won’t regret it.”

“As a first yoga retreat, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but this was fantastic. The standard has been so high future retreats elsewhere have a tough act to follow! If only I lived a little closer! The welcome, friendliness, food, instruction, and time to chill and chat are all very appreciated. I loved it!”

The bed was incredibly comfortable and the duvet was like sleeping in a cocoon. 10/10 - It has been a wonderful treat for me and time for myself

The teaching was done in a way that made the class fun (but tough!) very informative and in such a beautiful and tranquil setting. Beautiful studio!

Thank you for a wonderful retreat and break - you have been an exceptional host”

“I've just returned from the best Yoga retreat ever!

Sam's classes were informative and challenging but totally inclusive. Suitable for all levels, from the physically challenged (me!) to the qualified yoga teacher (not me!). Just the right balance of technical input and physical practice.

Set in the most beautiful environment offering peace and tranquility. Not forgetting 'THE' most delicious food, courtesy of Delia @thejammycook.

If you get the opportunity to go, grab it with both hands.”

“A magical experience! Anyone would get something out of it. I would recommend this for everyone, no matter what yoga level!

I arrived on Friday expecting to learn a few yoga poses and hoping my level of fitness wouldn't be a burden to the class.

Sam is an incredible teacher, with the ability to shine the light on people's strengths, lending an extra hand to those in need (taking injuries into account-creating alternative poses), and taking the time to make sure everyone understood the why and how of the poses/stretches.”

“I have just spent the most amazing, challenging, emotional, and incredible yoga weekend workshop with a group of wonderful women in the most beautiful surroundings!

Our host and yoga teacher Sam was inspiring and the most supportive teacher; I have learned so much and discovered there are yoga poses I can do that I would not have thought possible!!!”

“Samantha's classes had a lovely collegiate feel to them. We worked hard but in a convivial atmosphere. I always felt a sense of well-being after each class, which spurred me on to do other healthy activities when I left. Cumulatively, there has been an increase in my energy levels (though not immediately after class ;)”

“What an amazing break. I have been to Yoga retreats at a number of places but no one is as skilled or as sensitive to individual needs as Sam. It’s a wonderful combination of fun and hard work.”

Fabulous guided rides by our lovely host Samantha, yoga tailored to the riders aching muscles, hot tub on the decking with stunning views of the rolling hills, beauty treatments, and delicious food. We were thoroughly spoilt on this fantastic week at Woll House. I cannot recommend it enough.”
