Yoga Retreat Food FAQ - What will you eat on our Victorian retreats?

Meals will generally include one gluten free and vegetarian dish, plus at least one other which may include gluten / animal protein / lactose.

If you have a highly specific palate, or severe food allergies, we invite guests to bring some of their own preferred foods to store in the fridge. We also request details of any food allergies or intolerances 7 days prior to your retreat to ensure that we can shop and prepare menus or advise if your needs cannot be met.
