Stoke the Embers – Winter Solstice Retreat 12 & 13th December 26'
Molly Jayne Yoga X Root Bound at Lochwood House
As the Celtic wheel turns again, we arrive at Winter Solstice, the longest night of the year.
Nestled on the shores of Loch Goil, surrounded by forest, mountains and water, we'll gather for an intimate overnight retreat inspired by the Scottish tradition of coming together around the hearth during the darkest days of winter. Lochwood House offers exclusive use of the property, including a yoga space, woodland dining area, Wild Spa and cosy communal spaces designed for rest and connection.
This retreat is an invitation to pause.
To breathe.
To move.
To nourish.
To reconnect—with nature, with community and with yourself.
Inspired by Scottish traditions of gathering around the hearth in winter, Stoke the Embers is a reminder that this season is not about endings, but about tending to what matters most. Together, we'll honour the turning of the year through practices that nourish body, mind, and spirit, helping you find light not by searching outside yourself, but by gently stoking the embers already burning within.
Your retreat includes
- An overnight stay at beautiful Lochwood House
- 3 Yoga practises - energising mandala, yin and vinyasa in their onsite yoga dome
- A seasonal dinner, breakfast and nourishing refreshments throughout your stay curated by Root Bound
- Fireside gathering and Cacao ritual
- A session in the Wild Spa, including sauna, wood-fired hot tub and cold plunge
- Time to rest, explore the lochside and embrace the stillness of the Scottish winter
Who is this retreat for?
This retreat is open to anyone looking to slow down before the festive season. A chance to stoke your embers. Whether you're a regular yogi or completely new to yoga, every practice will be accessible and adaptable.
Come on your own or with a friend—many people attend retreats solo, and you'll be warmly welcomed into our little community. If you come with a pal you might fancy sharing a room!
