Woodland Yoga Retreat
Woodland Yoga Retreat and Vegan, Vegetarian, Guest House in the Highlands of Scotland.

Woodland Yoga Retreat is in a Woodland in the peaceful Hamlet of Rosehall, in the Scottish Highlands. A haven of tranquillity. Where you can leave behind the usual daily activities and chores and devote time to yourself. Practise Yoga if you wish with an experienced Yoga teacher, enjoy good vegan, vegetarian food. Go walking in some of the nicest scenery in the United Kingdom.
When we taste even a little bit of our natural inner ease and happiness, we wonder how we could have become so caught up in the daily chores as to forget who we truly are. Stress is not only bad for the body and mind, but it also causes us to bury our true nature beneath the debris of tasks deadlines and worries.

Woodland in the North central highlands is also a good base for exploring the picturesque and richly historic Highlands.
