WHAT TO EXPECT
2-night Yoga Space Yorkshire in-house retreats are led by Emma and whose yoga is suitable for beginners or, those well-established in their yoga/kundalini yoga journey. You do not need ANY kundalini yoga experience, come with an open mind and heart and enjoy the benefits of this amazing yoga that incorporates movements, rests, sound/sacred sound, mantras, and gong baths.
Retreats are varied in themes/activities, and we have offered cacao ceremonies, drumming sound baths, walks, fire walks, reiki and holistic therapies, and of course, always, wonderful vegetarian/vegan food from our cooks.
Prices include all food, activities, and non-alcoholic beverages such as teas/herbal teas/coffee. Rooms in the house are mostly shared (helps if you can book with someone you know!) and these twin bedrooms use house bathrooms close to rooms. We have single rooms for some retreats and these go very quickly. We also have luxury en-suite private cottages in the stable block beside the house that can be used as retreat accommodation.
Hiring us for your retreat?
Are you a teacher who wishes to hire Patrick Brompton Hall? Use the inquiry form and say hello. We will arrange a discovery call with you about our retreat experience. Please use the sign-up form to book a time to chat with Emma. Our maximum studio hire space is for 14 students. Teachers 1 or 2. We can accommodate (sleep) more but for a comfortable practice with props, please do not request to bring more than 14 students. We suggest 12 maximum for a Pilates retreat.
Times
Weekend retreats are 2 nights. Three-night retreats are hosted for experienced retreat hosts only. If you are hosting your first-ever retreat we will help you host and smooth out any first-time nerves during a two-night retreat. We do not host day or one-night/two-day retreats for external guest teachers. These shorter retreats are only available with Emma.
We also host 4-night midweek stays – or bespoke stays if you are experienced at leading groups.
Whatever your requirements, please do ask by email. We can arrange an appointment to talk through your ideas.
In and outside relaxation
Retreat guests can enjoy the use of our indoor pool and weather permitting, retreats love using our walled meditation garden and extensive gardens and grounds. Inside PB Hall you can relax in our soft space sitting room where a fire is always lit during the winter. If the hot tub has been included in your weekend description, you will love their woodland private location.
We are privileged to be surrounded by acres of our own land. You can walk freely, and create mindful meditation walks in our woods, cold-water bathe in our private streams and walk to our private mini-Stonehenge Stone Circle (about a mile) where we often light a fire and hold rituals.
We have our own firewalk – if you have been trained to facilitate this process you may use this. There are always weekend retreats where regular retreat hosts use this facility.
We have outside fire braziers for the usual seated outside gathering group work. We can offer sound baths and gong baths for external retreat leaders who may also hire Emma to teach a kundalini yoga class if you are an external retreat facilitator hiring YogaSpace Yorkshire for your group.
Food
Yoga retreats are vegetarian or vegan. Our retreat chefs are mostly local and prepare the food with love and focus on your nourishment. We use local produce where we can, seasonal vegetables from our garden when we can.
The emphasis at YogaSpace Yorkshire and Patrick Brompton Hall is on letting go of what no longer serves you, so that you leave here with a rejuvenated nervous system helping you withstand the pressures of our current times. Helped by nourishing meals, yoga and wellbeing practices you can find elevation and intention to go forward in your life after a retreat weekend here, deep in the Yorkshire countryside.

What do they say about Yogaspace Yorkshire?
From the first moment of entering the beautiful hall, I knew this studio is something special. A light spacious yet so cozy and calm yoga space is hard to find. Relaxation comes naturally and yoga is so much more enjoyable in these beautiful surroundings. Emma is am amazing kundalini yoga teacher and divine when playing the gong. Her classes are challenging yet respect individual circumstances and make you feel so much better instantly. She is very knowledgeable, connects theory and practice with ease, is full of energy and positive spirit and a joy to be taught by. I truly love my kundalini yoga and gong sessions with Emma
Emma’s Kundalini classes are ‘first-class, a relaxed and professional atmosphere. Emma is fabulous teacher and really opens you to a new way of being while you show yourself self-love and care’
Yoga at Patrick Brompton Hall is a very special experience.
The beautiful and peaceful yoga studio is the perfect setting for yoga practice.
I have taken part in several Kundalini yoga classes during retreats at Patrick Brompton Hall and have loved all of them.
I was a novice to this particular yoga but the classes catered for all abilities and I was immediately made to feel comfortable.
I couldn’t have asked for a better start to my Kundalini yoga journey and I can’t wait to go back again soon!
I have been to many different yoga retreats both in the UK and overseas and this one was by far the best.
My advice? Book it now!
I want to do your yoga Nidra class again – I slept so well. Thank you.
To sum it up with one word: love. The best yoga retreat I have been to.
Amazing teacher, wonderful hosts, beautiful facilities, gorgeous surroundings, and delicious food.
Absolutely loved every bit of it
I came on retreat and stayed at the cottages with my oldest daughter in June 2018 and January 2019.
Emma and Charlie are the perfect hosts they made us feel completely welcome in their beautiful home which sits in beautiful grounds surrounded by spectacular views of Yorkshire.
The Women’s Group has been an amazing, welcoming, warm experience.
The positive energies and collective female wisdom has been brilliant – the thought provoking sessions followed by the yoga and final gong bath was the perfect balance – thank you Emma – and please can we do it all again!
