Testimonials
Top notch yoga and a fabulous lunch...
Just to say a huge thank you for such a lovely day on Saturday. As usual Jill’s yoga was top notch and your hospitality, including the fabulous lunch, was wonderful (thanks also to David who looked after us while you were busy in the afternoon). Please also pass on my thanks to Theresa who with her skilled massage eased my painful neck.
It was lovely to spend a relaxing day with my girls and one of the best Christmas presents I have received. I really would hope that we can repeat the experience another time.
Thought the picture below might make you smile.
I’ll look forward to seeing you again at Alphington one day.
With best wishes
Jenny, Megan and Kirsty
A really special day...
A huge thank you Lynda to you and Jill for such a wonderful day. The yoga, treatment, lunch and location are all wonderful, and combined together, make for a really special day. And meeting such a lovely bunch of other people was the icing on the cake.
Warmest good wishes,

A wonderful day in the country...
Thank you all for a wonderful day in the country. Weather glorious. Yoga is such a tonic for my aches & pains. A fabulously delicious lunch & a relax in a soothing hot tub & finally a great back massage which has definitely freed up my shoulders. Finally a cuppa & cake & relax in the sun to this view. Ace.
Thank you,

The day was such a tonic...
Dear Jill and Lynda,
Just wanted to thank you for such a wonderful day on Saturday. We were so grateful to be able to come and relax in your beautiful home Lynda. Thank you for the hospitality and delicious food.
Jill the yoga was absolutely wonderful. Everyone loved the beautiful words and the long strong lengthening!
We've all been a bit frazzled and the day was such a tonic.
Best wishes and thanks again

The perfect family day...
A huge thank you from us all for the perfect family day. It can be hard to find something that the 50+ amongst us and the teenage gang equally enjoy. Your pamper day hits the spot.
Jill was wonderful, as ever. The food was wonderful too. The location is just beautiful. Mark and I spent half an hour talking through ponds on our drive to Cornwall. The massages left us floating.
You’re both such wonderful hosts.
