Tucked into the quiet fields of Billingshurst, Ellasfield is a yoga retreat designed for slowing down, offering a natural pause from the pace of everyday life. The retreat hosts a programme of yoga, meditation, restorative workshops and seasonal gatherings, all centred around reconnecting with nature and self.
Ellasfield is the vision of its owner, Kim, who began hosting retreats from her family home before deciding to transform the entire house into a dedicated sanctuary for others. In a gesture that speaks to her commitment to the project, Kim moved into a yurt in the garden, allowing every bedroom in the house to become part of the retreat experience. Each room was reimagined as a bespoke, en-suite space for guests — calm, nurturing and deeply comfortable — so the home could fully support rest, restoration and time away from the everyday.
