Savor Scotland: Rachel’s Farm, Glen Almond
With Jen Mast, Lelia Leary and Rachel Emery
Join Savor Yoga Retreats for a soul-stirring week in the rolling countryside of Perthshire — where the Scottish Highlands begin. Surrounded by rugged beauty, open skies, sweeping hills, and wild landscapes, this retreat offers a beautiful blend of movement, adventure, culture, restoration, and connection.
This 6-night, 7-day retreat is designed for those who feel called to move a little more, explore a little farther, and connect with their own strength in a supportive and nourishing way. Our practices will be energizing and dynamic, weaving together yoga, strength, core work, mindful mobility, stretching, breath, and deep rest. Each class will offer space to challenge yourself while staying connected to your body, your breath, and your own inner rhythm
Throughout the week, we’ll balance invigorating practices with unique Scottish excursions that invite confidence, curiosity, and a spirit of adventure. Guests will have the opportunity to experience the Highlands through guided hikes, Highland biking, kayaking or canoeing on Loch Tay, an Edinburgh city and castle tour, a Highland castle adventure, and traditional Ceilidh Scottish dancing. Our home for the week, Rachel’s Farm Glen Almond, offers luxury accommodations, beautiful gathering spaces, hot tubs, a cozy fireplace, a gorgeous panoramic yoga studio, and incredible farm-to-table meals.
After days filled with movement, fresh air, and exploration, you’ll have time to soften, unwind, connect, and be nourished. This retreat invites a fuller rhythm of practice and adventure — energizing, confidence-building, deeply supportive, and rooted in the Savor spirit of connection and care.
Come ready to move, explore, rest, laugh, and savor the wild beauty of Scotland.
This is the Savor way — and we can’t wait to share the magic of Scotland with you.
