A Space to Be

A Space to Be is a yoga studio, therapy space and place of retreat in Shilbottle Northumberland. Escape the busy-ness of every day life and step into our quiet corner of calm.

Lucy Maresh uses movement, relaxation, massage, and meditation to help people learn about themselves and make life easier. Her classes are grounded in traditional yoga philosophy and include a holistic balance of practices for body, breath, mind, heart and soul.

Lovely welcome, gentle yoga, silence in the morning, gorgeous food, excellent views and wonderful company.

“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.”
