Trully magical place!

I took a group of my students for a weekend yoga retreat. We had a beautiful studio on our disposal for our practice, the living room was great for our talks and workshops, and the walks our hosts introduced us to were incredible! The house is situated in a beautiful, calm and quiet part of the land, surrounded by breath-taking scenery.

Perfectly peaceful and picturesque!

I kind loath to give St Marks Stays the glowing review it deserves as I want to selfishly keep it to myself 😂 This place is magical not just because of the location, which is breathtaking, but it's what Joanne and Damian have done to it and who they are! I held my retreat there this year 2022, and have 2023 booked too. This place is perfect to get away and reflect.

A home from home

We had a wonderful weekend at st marks for a 60th birthday. The house was large enough to have everyone together, yet still felt homely - we all commented how we would love to live there! We have stayed in a few group houses and St Marks had the most well equipped kitchen with everything we needed and more. We didn’t use the studio (apart from when playing sardines!) but it is a great space. We especially loved the garden and would love to return in summer to take advantage of it fully.

A beautiful, restful house in gorgeous surroundings

This house is perfect for a big group, every possible requirement is provided for and the setting is absolutely stunning. We had from age 9 to 83 and everyone loved the house, from the glorious views in the garden to the comfy sofas in the two sitting rooms. Everything a cook could need in the kitchen, super comfy beds, lovely bathrooms - it's just perfect. Damian and Joanne were super hosts, there when we needed them and with really helpful advice and local information.

We love it so much that we keep coming back

I have held a few Yoga and Wellness retreats here and it never disappoints. It is perfect for what I need in a venue as it has an indoor studio and an outdoor Yoga decking for if the weather is nice. Joanne and Damian go out of their way to be helpful and welcoming and the property itself is a home from home. The beds are super comfy and most of them can be made into a double or twin. There are plenty of areas both indoor and outdoor for guests to relax. Already booked again for next year 😍

The perfect venue for a yoga retreat

St Marks Stays was a perfect venue for a weekend retreat. The communication and help from Jo & Damian was exemplary, the kitchen was well equipped and the yoga studio with all the props saved us lugging them from our studios at home. A really easy venue to navigate and house ten guests and two teachers for a weekend of nurture.

Perfect, could not fault anything about the venue or the hosts

I loved the homely feel to the venue, the modern but rustic feel to the house. The thought and effort that the hosts put into the venue shows, they have thought of everything down to water bottles for each guest and lovely local homemade soaps. You do not want for nothing when staying in this venue The one thing I think could elevate this property even more would be a little sauna. With the ice bath it would be something so unbelievably unique

I felt completely comfortable and everything just flowed without stress as I knew all the small deta

I Loved that from as soon as we arrived Damien was there to greet us and walk things through with us. And knowing if there were any issues that they’d be dealt with without any hesitation. This took a lot of stress away. Everything was immaculate,and good quality but still with a homely vibe so you didn’t feel on edge & could relax fully. There was ore than enough crockery & utensils so made life in the kitchen providing meals for large groups easier. Then there’s the view…from every window!!

This is my 3rd year using this gorgeous venue for my yoga retreats. Joanne and Damian are always so welcoming and make sure you have everything you need prior to and during your stay. The house is beautifully decorated, clean and very well equipped for large groups, plus lots of attention to things that make you feel even more at home. The view, the gardens are stunning and my guests always love getting out to practice on the decking. Another fabulous visit and can’t wait to be back soon.

An ideal venue to host retreats

After years of searching, I have finally found the ideal venue to host my wellbeing retreats. Every room is beautifully appointed with so much love and attention to detail. The location is both private and accessible and the views from the garden are spectacular. Joanne and Damian are the wonderful live-in hosts who offer the perfect balance of freedom and friendly support. I'm so glad I took a leap of faith and am really looking forward to returning again with my retreat ladies next year.

Fabulous Yoga Retreat Venue

This is the second year running that I have co-hosted a Yoga retreat at St Marks Stays. All our guests loved the ambience of the house which is extremely calm and peaceful. It really is a home away from home. We enjoyed the gardens and decking as the sun shone for us. The in house yoga studio makes the space work particularly well. However, it’s very versatile house and would work for many other types of stays. The owners Joanne and Damian were very helpful ensuring we had everything we needed.

A home away from home, perfect for making memories.

The warming homely feel throughout, relaxing atmosphere, superb views, the beautiful (yet functional) AGA, the rope swing and eclectic range of music and films.

Another magic getaway

We loved returning to our home from home at St.Marks! The perfect spot to winter and nest together at the start of the year. We loved the additions to the yoga studio & were grateful to not have to bring too much extra equipment. Joanne & Damian are always so helpful, warm & attentive.

Absolutely stunning house and beautiful scenery surrounding it

A group of 12 stayed last weekend for a sewing retreat and it was absolutely perfect. The house is beautiful with attention to detail everywhere and definitely home from home. There’s nothing Joanne and Damion (who were perfect hosts) haven’t thought of. The addition of the studio was perfect as all our sewing could be done in there which left the rest of the house for us to relax/chill in. It’s the best accommodation we’ve had and we loved it so much we booked again before we left.

About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
We will be around as live in hosts, but we have our private living area tucked away at the end section of the house next to the studio along with our cocker spaniel. Don't worry though as we are very friendly and leave you in peace if you don't need us around. We can mix and socialise with you as much, or as little as feels right. We are on hand however to help make your stay right for you, so if there is anything special you need organising, you only need to ask.

It all started back in 2014 for us with a work sabbatical from our careers in architecture and photography to volunteer with Raleigh International overseas in Costa Rica and Nicaragua. We realised life should be about connecting with others, getting outdoors and really living life. Our Raleigh Expedition and love of travelling led us to creating a home to share with others.

We want to host a house that everybody gets involved in. There is nothing better for the soul than being part of a group of like minded people and going back to the good old days of chatting, learning from others, discovering the world from somebody else’s point of view and having fun together.

Arrive as strangers, leave as friends.
