Further Details including Booking Form
For those looking for a place to immerse into their yoga practice, totally relax, enjoy wonderful food and experience Incredible India, our India Yoga Retreat at Basunti is perfect. Basunti’s unique location, surrounded by wildlife and with extraordinary views of the Himalaya, was created especially for yoga retreats by David and Izzy Butterworth.
Beautifully fresh vegetarian and vegan food is lovingly prepared daily for hungry practitioners. There’s afternoon tea and freshly prepared cakes – all served with smiles from the team that look after Basunti guests.
Accommodation is in en-suite rooms which are comfortable, clean and quiet. The gardens that surround the property are full of the local fauna and merge gently into the surrounding countryside.
There are outside sitting and dining areas, sheltered by verandas. A large pool with loungers overlooks the lakes and woodlands. Local villages are just a short walk from the property.
Basunti is peaceful and quiet. Except the soft sounds of prayers coming from the local village and, of course, the singing birds of which there are many…
