About this tour
Spend four hours in 100 acres of unspoiled countryside combining yoga, forest bathing and guided foraging. Based at Stonerocks Farm in the UK, this retreat pairs structured movement practices with naturalist-led exploration of wildflower meadows, ancient woodland and open fields. A BBC-featured forager shares insights into edible plants, bird behaviour and medicinal flora whilst you move through largely traffic-free terrain populated by native deer. The weatherproof yoga tent and fireplace shelter sessions regardless of conditions.

What to expect
The day blends structured wellness practice with unstructured time in nature. Morning and afternoon yoga sessions use the on-site tent as your base; qi-gong flows between the fields and trees. Forest bathing involves slower, deliberate movement through woodland and meadow—less hiking, more sensory engagement. Steven Homewood's foraging walk teaches plant identification and uses; you'll learn what's edible, medicinal or simply interesting to know. Weather is managed through the tent structure and fireplace, so expect sessions to continue in rain or cold. The pace is moderate: steady walking, standing poses, breathing work. Lunch is not provided.
