I’m sending a HUGE ‘THANK YOU’ to you all for all your tireless hard work that made the singing and yoga week at Fron Farm Retreat such an enjoyable time! It felt like coming home – beautiful surroundings and accommodation, plus a very warm welcome from an inspirational group of people. 

I loved Cat and Celia’s teaching and the gorgeous songs they shared with us, so look forward to singing with them again at some point in the future. I really enjoyed Marie’s yoga sessions. And Bethan’s massage was wonderful. Throughout the week our meals were plentiful and deliciously home-cooked with fresh ingredients. R Wall 2023

ACCOMMODATION
You have the choice or 2 lovely places to stay, both on the south-facing side of a secluded valley, either

3 well-appointed cottages at Fron Isaf includes double, twin and single rooms and self-contained cottage ideal for a couple

6 beautiful insulated rustic roundhouses heated by wood-burners at Fron Farm – some are luxurious, en suite with their own hot tubs and sleep up up to 6 people whilst others have more limited facilities (which would suit those on a lower budget).

The yoga, dining and singing* will take place at the 2 gorgeous event yurts at Fron Farm which are normally used for weddings. NB next year all catering will be from this area of the site convenient to the car park. *You can also sing at the sweet medieval church on the farm.  It is a 15 minute walk or 5 minutes’ drive between the 2 sites. Guests share cars- although some come by public transport there are always plenty of cars. 

ON SITE STAFF
Marie and Jane from our Welsh office together with 2 participants from last year will prepare and organise the food and washing up. If you are able, we’d like everyone to help clear up after one meal during their stay.

OUTINGS
We will plan these according to the weather and the group’s desires. We suggest 2 gorgeous places on the coast, both about 30 minutes’ drive, Laugharne and Amroth as well as a local walk to standing stones – about an hour each way.

FOOD
will be nutritious, home-made and locally sourced as much as possible.

“Just to say how much I enjoyed the singing holiday in deepest Carmarthenshire.  The food was excellent, I enjoyed the singing enormously.   Reflexology and Massage were an added treat at a time when we were on holiday. All the other singers were such good company as well” Lesley L, May 2023
