Restore & Renew- A Yoga and Nature Retreat
with an Ayurveda Touch

Where you will stay

Join us at The Bartlett Village House, circa 1890, in the village of Bartlett, NH. Nestled in the heart of the 790,000-acre White Mountain National Forest and in close proximity to nearby North Conway, Jackson and the Crawford Notch, it offers year-round outdoor adventure right outside it’s doors.
This beautiful 7 bedroom, 3.5 bathroom private home is decorated in antiques and original decor with just the right amount of modern updates and offers a unique getaway complete with New England Charm.

Getting into nature can do countless positive things for your body, mind and soul. It can leave you feeling grounded, rested, relaxed, restored, connected to the earth and so much more. Combine this with daily yoga classes, nourishing home cooked meals, Ayurveda workshop & cooking class, and like minded company for a weekend you will long remember.
