Yoga & Wellness Retreat January 2026

Reconnect & Rejuvenate with us at Knowlton Court.

Step into a world of stillness, beauty, and balance at our exclusive Yoga and Wellness Retreat, set within the timeless elegance of Knowlton Court – a historic estate nestled in the heart of the Kent countryside.

Being our 3rd year here, we can say with our hand on our hearts that with its rich history and mystical energy, Knowlton Court truly is a place for healing and renewal. 

Surrounded by tranquil woodlands, sweeping gardens, and centuries-old charm, this retreat offers the perfect setting to unwind, restore, and reconnect – both with yourself and with nature. Whether you are new to yoga or deepening your practice, our carefully curated schedule blends energising as well as restorative yoga practices, breath-work, and meditation and mindfulness practices to help you feel grounded, refreshed, and whole.

Indulge in nourishing meals crafted with seasonal, locally-sourced ingredients, and enjoy peaceful walks through the estate’s rolling grounds. Between sessions, you’ll have time to rest, reflect, journal, or simply soak in the serenity of Knowlton’s enchanting surroundings.

This much loved Fox-Pitt family home, is nestled in the heart of Kent, the garden of England. Set within a stunning and extensive country estate of over 1,900 acres, it is just over an hour from Chislehurst and 30 minutes from Canterbury making it easily accessible.

The charming grade II listed Elizabethan manor house, The Dower House, is our home for the weekend.  Built within its own expanse of private, pretty gardens including its' own tennis court and nestled in the perfect location at the heart of the Knowlton Estate. 

Guests at the Dower House enjoy its secluded location within the woods and its magnificent views of the Estate's extensive parkland. The Dharma Hall where our classes and teachings will take place, is within a stone’s throw from The Dower House. 

This retreat is more than an escape – it’s an invitation to come home to yourself.
