About

Fire & Flow – Yoga and Sauna Weekender

✨ Wellbeing woven with words, fire and flow.

A two-night glamping retreat in the Howgill Fells

Fire & Flow is a nourishing weekend rooted in warmth, movement, nature and simple joy. Held in the cosy embrace of Blossom Yurt and the crackling heat of the wood-fired Birch Sauna, these weekends offer space to step away from the everyday and sink into something slower, steadier and more spacious.

Every Fire & Flow weekend is slightly different, shaped by the season and the rhythm of the land — but at the heart of it is always the same: simple, soulful joy, deep connection with nature, and a sense of ease that lingers long after the weekend ends.

This is time to soften, to breathe more deeply, to move your body with kindness and to be well fed, well rested and warmly held, surrounded by hills, big skies and good company.

The Weekend Will Include

Across the weekend you can expect:

• Nourishing yoga practices held in Blossom Yurt — sometimes gentle and grounding, sometimes a little more playful and energising, always guided with care and a sense of fun
• Guided meditation, rest and time to simply be
• Traditional Lithuanian-inspired sauna rituals in the wood-fired Birch Sauna
• A guided local walk through the surrounding landscape with an optional river dip (conditions permitting)
• Journalling and simple creative practices — playful, reflective and pressure-free
• Plenty of space to rest, wander, chat, nap or sit quietly with a cup of tea

Fire & Sauna Rituals

A central part of Fire & Flow is time spent in the wood-fired Birch Sauna, guided through traditional Lithuanian-inspired sauna rituals.

These rituals are slow, sensory and deeply nourishing — more than just sitting and sweating (though there’ll be plenty of that). Expect waves of steam, infused aromas, gentle heat, whisking with oak and birch leaves, moments of quiet reflection and deep rest. Each ritual is designed to support nervous system regulation, release and that unmistakable feeling of being both grounded and uplifted.

Warmth, intention and care — with a sense of calm that lingers long after you’ve cooled off.

Who Fire & Flow Is For

Fire & Flow is for you if you’re craving:

• A break from noise, demands and rushing
• Yoga that feels human, intuitive and kind

• Time in nature to breathe a little deeper
• Connection, laughter and long, unhurried moments

Come as you are. Leave warmer, softer and quietly glowing from the inside out.

Venue Information

Nestled within the Howgill Fells with breathtaking 360-degree views, Howgills Hideaway is a secluded glamping site on a working farm. Most activities take place in Blossom Yurt — our shared space for yoga, rest and gathering — or outdoors in the surrounding landscape.

This is a wild, back-to-nature experience rather than a five-star hotel retreat. Life here is guided by the elements — fresh air, wide skies and whatever weather chooses to visit. Comfortable outdoor clothing and a sense of adventure are recommended.
