- The Bothy -
We lead such busy lives... sometimes we need to stop and recharge our batteries… we try to create an environment here where you can do just that… put your phone to one side, listen to the birds, see the clouds move across the sky, watch the stars… treat your body to some well earnt tlc!
In July 2022, we launch The Bothy, a Finnish log cabin dedicated to wellness, quietude and calm, where our professional therapist Sarah-Jane can pamper those hunched shoulders or tired hands. Guests can also take private yoga classes with wonderful Jolanthe.
In summer guests can throw open the doors of The Bothy and hear nature, and in winter remain cosy with underfloor heating and woodburning stove. It is also possible to book therapies in fine weather under the stars in your private garden.

Private Yoga classes.
Jolanthe - wonderful Bendy Wife can tailor a private yoga class for you whether you are a beginner or a devotee. Jolanthe’s style of yoga takes inspiration from the Ashtanga Vinyasa method, focussing on breath and generating heat through strong, flowing yoga poses.
She has an extensive background in teaching fitness and studying how exercise benefits the body and mind, and completed a BSc in Sports & Exercise Science (2011), a PhD in Health and Wellbeing (2018) at the University of Bath. Jolanthe has taught group fitness classes since 2011 and yoga since 2018 - helping others care for their bodies and minds brings her great joy!

Please note in fine weather classes can be held in the garden overlooking open countryside, if inclement classes may be held in the warmth of the Bothy or Library.
