Thank you for this Yoga, so much more than exercise. Yours is such a gentle compassionate practice and teaching. This combined with skill and the power of balance, movement and stillness, is very effective. I am benefiting greatly especially as movement is not usually a delight for me. I have found this term’s yoga to be settling, spacious and healing. I look forward to the next session.

“The restorative yoga, massage and just having time to ‘be’ have been nourishing and healing. I have appreciated the generosity and kindness you have shown me. The food has been delicious and just checking on my wellbeing has been helpful. I can see how much thought, heart and attention you put into your business in your beautiful home. The little touches which make the difference!”

“I was so comfortable in Lucy and Henry’s guest suite. It is an oasis of peace overlooking a wonderful view of fields sloping down towards the sea. Every little detail has been thoughtfully planned with the aim of creating a relaxing environment. I particularly appreciated the fresh bread and fruit provided for breakfast along with my favourite Dorset cereals and orange juice. I felt very safe as a single traveller. The bed and armchairs were very comfortable, the shower was terrific. Lucy welcomed me warmly even though I arrived quite late. I look forward to spending more weekends there in the future. Very convenient for Alnwick and Alnmouth, each only 10 mins away by car. Thank you so much!”

“Can’t think of a better retreat in which to indulge in some ‘me time’ for a precious weekend.

From the home comforts of my spacious ‘suite’ to Lucy’s relaxing yoga and massage, to beautiful local walks, I appreciated every last drop. 

This is a personal investment I need to arrange with A Space to Be annually!”

“A quick note to say how we enjoyed our visit. It was a real breathing space and we loved the personalisation and attention to detail.

We felt very much cared for and held.

I am doing my exercises!”

Happy, relaxing, very supportive and personally I found this class a real mood booster.

A great way to have some quality time with your baby, to meet other Mums and to spend time in a supportive, understanding environment.

I really enjoyed the online sessions too and liked the fact we got to know each other and start making connections

Thank you for everything you’ve offered in this weird year – you saved my maternity leave!

“Thank you so much for a brilliant weekend retreat. It really couldn’t have been better. The new self-contained arrangements were great. You clearly put a lot of thought into our needs.

I am really enjoying the practice you put together for me, thank you.”

What a lovely, quiet and restful week I had staying with Lucy and Henry! The place is really special and I enjoyed the great views from my room, the good night’s sleep and perfect breakfast. They made sure I wouldn’t miss a thing! It was wonderful to just go down the stairs and practice yoga, either on my own or joining Lucy’s classes. The area is amazing for walking and enjoying the coast. Shilbottle is also easy accessible by public transport from Newcastle and a good base to explore Northumberland by bus. Lucy and Henry also recommended places to visit. I’d love to come back soon…

Since the workshop I’ve made a real effort to let go of the need to keep on ‘rushing around’ and being ‘efficient’ during my period.

I’m resting into my feminine time now, and I’m finding that I feel SO peaceful in the lead up to and during my period, and have had ZERO pain!

I just thought I’d let you know, as I really found the session illuminating
