“What can I say – a weekend retreat at Manse on the Beach is a treat like no other. Having arrived at this elegant seaside property and receiving the warmest of welcomes from Brian, Cora and their team, we had a feeling from the beginning that it was going to be a special weekend – but it far exceeded our expectations on every level. From the beautifully appointed bedrooms (with its selection of treats and White Company toiletries) to Tracy’s home baked goodies for afternoon tea, it was simply heavenly from beginning to end.
The yoga and holistic therapies, provided by the wonderful Natalie and Sarah, followed by a daily session in the Spa, were complimented by Cora’s inspired walk-and-coach sessions which, all in all, made for a refreshing, restorative and revitalising weekend. A weekend of true self-care, was combined with the most delicious food and warm hospitality from Brian and Cora, which left us feeling truly nourished and ready to take on the world!
If I could bottle the feeling I had on leaving Manse on the Beach on Sunday, I would – but as that’s not possible, I’m already looking at dates for my next escape to this beautiful idyll by the sea.”
