Programme

July 24-31
Family Week
£695
(with discounts for children)

We used to do just one family week. By popular demand, we’re doing two consecutive weeks this year. And, following a feature in The Times in September, the weeks currently have just a few spaces left.

This is a rare chance to have a holistic holiday as a family.
Drag along the less keen members of the family with the promise of the pool and pizza. Then get stuck into yoga classes for the parents in the morning, whilst the children are taught yoga or entertained separately. Spend some time together during the day, and then wave the kids off to an afternoon yoga session whilst you have some time for yourselves.
There’s a unique atmosphere on The Hill during Family Week (and very different to other weeks). It’s a little like going away with friends and their families and renting a house together. Only you’ve hired a top Italian chef and some international yoga teachers to keep you all happy.
You’ll enjoy the organic wine and delicious vegetarian food, looking out over the Italian hills as the children scream around, looking after one another, and popping back for some pasta and, yes, chips and ketchup and ice cream. They’ll swing in the hammocks, bounce on the trampoline and play table football as you sit and read a book.
And, of course, you’ll go away feeling more relaxed, more supple and with children that know that ‘the tree’ isn’t just something to climb.

Guest comment: “An inspiring, moving, sense-awakening time. Having the time to myself in the mornings to do Yoga with the other grown-ups was an essential and beautiful counterbalance to the liveliness of being families. I loved the atmosphere you have created. The divine fresh food. The pool amidst the trees. The dome was enormous fun being there with children dancing, hurling pillows, being exuberant.” Lisa

The price for adults is £695, with a 30% discount for children aged 4-11 and a 20% discount for children aged 12-16.
