I loved every part of my retreat at Sunset Bay! It was so relaxing, refreshing and nourishing. I feel like I spent a week there although it was only three days! The food cooked by Kelly Mason was unbelievable and she taught us so much about vegan nutrition. I would highly recommend and will happily come back, could not have wished for a better experience for my first trip to Wales 🙂
Best vegan retreat in Wales!

I had a fantastic weekend at Sunsetbay. We explored local hills, waterfalls and seaside towns with the team, alongside other activities such as yoga, gong bath and some local Welsh music. The food was insanely good, every dish was nutritious and healthy and I came back home feeling very recharged and grounded. I strongly recommend this retreat, and I will defo join another one this year!
Amazing retreat to ground and relax!

Maggie and her team are absolutely fabulous and the 5 days were perfectly put together and delivered to the highest standard. Accommodation and food were exceptional and everyone was an absolute joy to meet and spend time with. I will definitely book again and would not hesitate to recommend Sunset Bay Retreats.
Say ‘yes’ to this Retreat! It’s the best 🤩

The most amazing 5 days ever! The most delicious and wholesome vegan food I’ve ever tasted. Hot tub and fire pit in the garden and lots of activities including yoga, stretching, walking, meditation, wild swimming, SUP, gong bath, bike ride and more! I went on my own and I’m so glad I did! It’s something everyone should experience and I’m definitely going back next year!! If I could give a 6 star review I would! Highly recommended
Amazing Retreat!

5 Stars all round! Maggie is quite possibly the most energetic, kind, friendly and passionate person you will ever meet. She exudes positive energy, and it’s catching! If your looking for a social experience, full of friendly new faces, activities to keep you busy as much or as little as you wish, then this is the retreat for you. Maggie delivers the timetable in a relaxed and homely way, no pressure and no judgement if you want to sit something out. The location in Wales is stunning, the journey across the mountains towards the sea was an experience in itself, with stunning countryside and views. The food is simple, vegetarian and excellent quality, plenty of it and there is cake! No fad diets here. The accommodation is nice, with a selection of different rooms at different prices, to suit all budgets. This was a positive experience, you’ll come away with a fresh take on life, and some new friends x
Fun, social. Connect with new people and enjoy a bit of you time, surrounded by friendly faces and positive energy!

Amazing retreat with amazing people! The atmosphere is calming and everyone involved makes you feel welcome and looked after like you have been part of their community your whole life! I cannot recommend Sunsetbay retreats enough, especially if it is your first time at a retreat. I will be back!
Amazing theraputic retreat with a taster of everything!

I loved the retreat from start to finish, but in particular, the yoga was great, the paddle boarding was exciting, the voice workshop was interesting, and I also loved the waterfalls and the lake that we went to. Oh and the food, flawless. I left feeling refreshed, regenerated and ready to take on the world!
Just what I needed.

Had a simply wonderful time on my Sunset Bay Retreat! Yogis were amazing. Kirsten’s food was inventive, delicious and nutritious. Maggie and Graham were warm and energetic hosts. Met a lovely group of people who I’m sure I’ll see again and it was loads of fun. Will definitely go again - in the warmer weather next time, so that the swimming won’t be quite as bracing!
Loads of fun!

I was there last September and have booked again for this year as it’s a must for “me” time. I went solo which I’m so glad I did! I’m now vegan after tasting only vegan food for the 5 days I was there! The activities were great and whilst there was lots on it was so very relaxing. I came away feeling so much better in myself. Can’t recommended enough!
Can't recommend enough!

Just brilliant - I have been twice! This is so much more than a yoga retreat - activities full on, I had a super time. Maggie and Graham are wonderful hosts and they have a great team to look after you. Highly highly recommended!
Much more than a yoga retreat!

This was my first time on a retreat experience and I’m converted. This experience (and place in wales) will live with me for a very very long time. You simply cant fail to come away having left a part of your heart there and a piece of Sunset Bay Retreats back home with you.
What a fantastic Retreat!
March 2023
I had an amazing time with my daughter on our first retreat! Maggie & Graham really made me feel very welcome. It was a home from home. Non of the awkwardness of meeting new people. I just felt I could settle in to a seat, make a drink, move from room to room , have a chat quite easily, like I had been there for ages. The complimentary massage was very welcome after a long journey. I feel I met some really lovely people. There was also so much included i.e massage, therapy, gong bath ( I was apprehensive about this as the last gong bath left me feeling like I had had a sensory overload, but the gong bath at SBWR was absolutely fantastic!) , story telling & music (exceptional voice), yoga ( thanks Frankie for accommodating my lack of 'yoganess'!). Catherine's vegan food was simply delicious! I loved how there was the flexibility to go with the flow if an idea came up to do something & not necessarily follow a set itinerary. Maggie & Graham kept checking in to see if I was ok with how things were. I really liked the fact that Maggie & Graham used local talent for the events/classes which made the overall experience seem very community oriented too.
Home away from home!

The Veganuary retreat was perfect. Yoga, with Frankie, who gave a visualisation for every posture and created such peace in our worn out souls. The food - just 5 star magnificence. We had Welsh legends and sound baths in the evenings. To top it all, Maggie and Graham couldn’t have made it more special, they were superb hosts. I’ve been in a few retreats now. This was my favourite by far!
By far my favourite retreat!

I've had three visits so far to Sunset Bay Retreats and I can't recommend it enough. Its become an annual event to reset and have some me time. If there's something you don't want to take part in it's not an issue. You can always enjoy the hot tub instead! However give it all a go and you may surprise yourself! I've met some great people during my time there too.
Perfect to reset!
