It was easy to get there by bus and short walk from bus stop to estate. Petra was very welcoming and I immediately felt at ease especially after a lovely cup of coffee. My room upstairs was cosy, clean and comfortable. Everything prepared, my name was on my door and a sweet welcome letter written. The other guests came one by one and were lovely. The days consisted of 3x daily yoga, 3x healthy meals, massage and lots of fun. We also managed to go for a walk in Dollar and visited a little book store with a cafe. The yoga sessions by Julie were fantastic with meditation at the end. Still can’t believe how flexible she is! Kirsten’s massage amazing and relaxing, thank you all for this stay, this was my first one but will be back next year! This is a must for anyone who needs time to reflect, make new friends and reconnect!
Thank you for this experience

Just had a wonderfully relaxing weekend with Consulting & Events. I booked in for a yoga weekend and got so much more than this. The staff are so welcoming and relaxed that they made me feel immediately at home. The accommodation is excellent, the location beautiful and the people warm and caring. Not like any yoga retreat I've ever been on before, but maybe all yoga retreats should be aiming for a bit of the special alchemy that is offered here. Very much tailored to the people on the retreat so I'm sure it will be different every time but such acceptance & warmth was a great treat. Give it a try.

I enjoyed that yoga retreat enough the first time that I went back again... and it was even better! Great fun, lovely people and good food/yoga constantly. There's a couple of interesting areas slightly out of the building as well - the Wallace Monument and the Japanese garden both fascinating. Hopefully be there again soon!

I have been attending the last retreat organized by Petra from Consulting & Events and have been employed in the past, helping out at previous events. It has been such a great experience on every occasion. Petra genuinely cares about improving each guests wellbeing and equally cares about her coworkers, such as yoga teachers, like myself. The food is always amazing, the location gorgeous and the time we all spent together was filled with laughter, peace and serenity. I can truly recommend booking one of Consulting & Events retreats as well as working with Petra.

This was my first retreat and was not sure what to expect. I needed to get away from my stressed filled life which was having a negative impact on my health. From the moment I drove into the car park the friendly faces that greeted me lifted my spirit and I knew from that moment that I was going to get what I needed and was in the right place. The organiser and the yoga teachers were all down to earth people who knew intuitively each and every person’s need. They pitched it very well and provided us with delicious healthy meals, one to one support, yoga sessions, group chats and a wonderful therapeutic massage. I will always treasure an evening where we laughed so much we cried, brilliant for the soul. As I write this I see all the faces of the lovely people that i was fortunate to meet and who touched my life in one way or another and I thank you all. I feel blessed. If anyone out there is contemplating a retreat I say go for it, it’ll be the best decision you make in ‘self care’.

This yoga retreat was great, the group of people we had were so kind, helpful and funny in every way. I didn’t expect to have so much fun and relaxation at the same time. I was hesitant at first but when I arrived all of them made me feel so welcome and I had a great time, I also felt more comfortable expressing who I really am, they also showed me various different techniques on how to deal with different situation. Petra,Dayna and Julie made us feel so welcome and comfortable, they were also extremely supportive towards the people who needed it.The food was amazing and the late night talks were interesting and funny. I would highly recommend going on this retreat as it opened my eyes more into the natural world and how different perspectives can really help you understand a situation. It is also a great opportunity to get away from the stress of situations within your life and to also try something different.

This was a fabulous retreat, full of nourishing yoga classes, great food, excellent company and beautiful surroundings. Petra was a great host and chef and Dayna and Julie were brilliant yoga teachers. They were all really solicitous of our wellbeing and went out of their way to make sure we were happy and had the best experience.

The location near Dollar in Scotland was really beautiful and the cottage itself was perfect with everything we needed. I had chosen this retreat because of the yoga, and with two or three classes every day it was just what I wanted. Dayna and Julie pitched the classes perfectly to make them suitable for all levels and we got a really good mix of stretching, flow, dynamic poses and relaxation. I could feel my body getting stronger and more flexible over the five days. Dayna and Julie were very generous with their time and there was even space and time for us to have one to one sessions to work on things we wanted individually if we wished, and for a relaxing back, neck and shoulder massage.

Petra's food was really gorgeous and she looked after us so well, catering to everyone's needs and providing lovely little treats and gifts for us, and checking in often with all of us to make sure that we were all happy. It made me feel really comfortable and cared for.

Another thing that I really enjoyed about it was that the group was purposefully kept small. Everyone was lovely and it was lovely getting to know people and chatting with the group and with Petra, Dayna and Julie. In addition, the retreat was excellent value and I was ver impressed by what was included in the price. I will definitely be attending other retreats run by Consulting and Events and would absolutely recommend them to anyone.

The whole experience was like being enveloped in a warm hug! Thank you so much!

This yoga retreat was everything I could have hoped for and more. Well organised, great food, lovely small group of like minded people. I felt relaxed and rejuvenated after my break with consulting & events.
