Move Well Holidays

Want to spend a weekend or a week moving well and feeling better?

Join us for our Movement Holidays in Spain!

What is Move Well Holidays?

Join myself (Move Well Yoga) and my chef husband, Richard (Bongo) for the perfect combo of Better Movement and fabulous food. We offer private stays with bespoke activities for individuals and groups.

Our house, Casa del Bienestar (House of Wellbeing) is situated above the Spa Town of Lanjaron in the Alpujarra Mountains, Spain. We offer self catered accommodation in a separate apartment or if you would rather be taken care of, we can add on food, drinks and much more in our bespoke packages.


We also offer movement retreats with guest teachers, movement specialists and nutritionists joining us to help you move well and feel better. These are held in a separate accomodation at the other end of the town at a beautiful retreat space called Escolta Alta.

Practices will differ for each movement holiday depending on guests and teachers. Please click on the holiday you are interested on for more details.

  • Healthy Food

    Catered By A Chef

    Richard was chefing around Edinburgh for over 20 years in various roles from Head Chef to Events Catering. He has trained in many different styles of cuisine and can adapt menus and dishes to cater for most types of diets and requests.

    He always tries to source food from local suppliers where possible and his menus are seasonal and fresh.

    The produce in Spain is abundant with fresh fruit and vegetables, good quality local meat and fresh fish, so there is always something for everyone.

    The property also has a pizza/bread oven, so you could have fresh bread daily and no need to call for takeaway!

    You can choose to be completely self sufficient or he can do breakfast, lunch, dinner, packed lunch - the choice is yours!

    He will also be offering cooking lessons as an add-on to your bespoke package - again can be for an individual, as part of a group, or for an organised holiday.

  • Activities

    If you are looking for the more active holiday, we have teamed up with our friends, Spanish Highs who run a hiking business based in Lanjaron.  They offer low and high walks and hikes, climbing and trail running.

    We can also offer both mountain and road biking to add to your package through Cycle Sierra Nevada. They offer bike hire and guided routes to suit all levels and abilities. Although, from personal experience, the mountains are big and climbs steep, so a certain level of fitness is required.

    If horse riding is your thing you can head up into the mountains above Lanjaron and enjoy a hack or lesson with Sarah from Caballo Blanco. She has a mixture of Spanish horses suitable for all experience levels. A great way to see the local scenery.

    Or if you are looking for a more relaxing holiday, why not try a Spa Package. The 4 Star Balneario de Lanjaròn offers a selection of thermal treatments in the world famous mineral waters of Lanjaròn.

    These activities will be at an extra cost and can easily be added to your bespoke package.
