The  Yoga, sauna, fire, nature & swim retreat | Corfe Castle

10 - 12 August 2026

 

Just a stone's throw from the breathtaking coastline, Kingston Country Courtyard offers the perfect sanctuary for your wild swimming retreat. Enveloped by the majestic views of Corfe Castle and the serene Purbeck Valley, this welcoming and tranquil haven provides a space for wild swimmers to gather, unwind, and re-charge their batteries.


Join us in peak season for a rejuvenating blend of yoga, sauna, fire, nature, and delightful Dorset swims.


We'll explore spectacular swim locations, enjoy exclusive sauna hires, epic swims (or gentle dips) guided by our experts, experience captivating dramatic readings, and indulge in our signature homemade cakes.


Embrace a tree bathing taster session, and wander through the natural splendour of the Isle of Purbeck, a canvas of colour and light.


Experience daily yoga sessions in our private barn or the Kingston Country Courtyard gardens, with stunning views of Corfe Castle and the Purbeck Valley.


Reconnect with your native self around the warm glow of an evening campfire after dinner.

Such a well organised and welcoming trip. Mel and Rich are really welcoming . Lovely food and company. Came by myself and met some lovely people
By Sarah E for The Cornwall Retreat on Mar 25, 2025
I enjoyed the half-board nature of this retreat, with the option to enjoy and support local businesses. The team managed the safety and desires of a group of mixed abilities really well, especially with the changing conditions that the mixed weather brought. Durdle Door was a real highlight! Thanks Mel and Rich.

Had a lovely time and were very well looked after, in and out of the water. Would recommend to anyone!
By Alice L for The Cold Water Retreat | Studland, Dorset on Feb 18, 2025
I had a glorious morning in Studland for the Winter Solstice with The Wild Swimming Co. Slightly late due to me missing the ferry, Mel stayed to make sure I could park ok. Then I was able to get straight in the sea and then warm up in the amazing sauna which is right on the beach. Mel and Rich were with us in the sea to make sure we were safe everytime. Even if they had just come out! After having a cold dip then a warm up for over an hour we got changed and were treated to hot coffee and amazing homemade cake. It was a wonderful experience despite the sun not really making an appearance. It’s a fab opportunity to meet like minded people or go with friends in a safe environment. I will definitely be doing it again and highly recommend The Wild Swimming Co. Thanks Mel and Rich xx
