The Beacon Retreat Centre, Brecon Beacons
Donna and Jeremy invite to their signature Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) Rest and Recharge Experience
Donna and Jeremy offer you a warm welcome to our beautiful, magical home a few miles outside of Aberhonddu (Brecon, Powys, Wales, UK) for a restful weekend of yoga, walks in nature and delicious food, in collaboration with local partner restaurants, all within the stunning and deeply nourishing landscape of the Bannau Brycheiniog National Park.
Come and immerse yourself for the weekend in a truly restful and nourishing experience of yoga and breathwork, waterfall, mountain and forest walks, and wonderful local food from two great gastro food providers. Come as either couples or singles - we foster a friendly, cohesive environment where conversation flows around the many log burners in the house, or weather permitting around the firepit on the patio or down by the stream.
