Practise Cobra in a cocoon of silence

In the Sierra de Aracena National Park, Finca el Moro is a remote farm located 100 km north of Sevilla. There, in an open Shala looking out over the farm, you can practise meditation in the morning and Asana yoga in the afternoon. Meanwhile, your other half can choose to ride horses or go on walks. Feeding your soul is good, but when you can also feast on organically produced food, what more could you ask for? Oh wait… each cottage has its own swimming pool!

Breathe in deeply and master Sun Salutation

91 km south of Sevilla, Suryalila Retreat Centre lies within sunflower fields and lakes, which means the beautiful property has breathtaking views of the surroundings. At Suryalila, the Om Dome, dubbed the most magnificent yoga hall in Europe, will welcome you in the morning to practise energising Vinyasa Flow Yoga, and late afternoon for a relaxing Yin Yoga. Sleep in cosy yurts or exotic rooms inspired by Bali and India, and let your body relax in the saltwater pool or the eco sauna.

Try Shoulder-Pressing Pose and meditate in a cave

59 km west of Malaga and set in the beautiful nature reserve of the Sierra de las Nieves, Molino del Rey features among the top 10 best yoga retreats in the world. Their Yoga studio is hand-cut out into the mountain with views across the valley and a door that allows you to enter further into the stillness of the caves. Oh yes, these are unique caves where you can meditate or swim in the magical ‘’grotto’’ pool.
