My experience on the Pila-Breathe Retreat™ in Cornwall was amazing. I felt enabled to achieve much more than I thought I could whilst also having time to relax in luxurious surroundings. The food was amazing, healthy and full of flavour with great variety and fabulous treats. Great to have an outdoor breakfast on the last day. I came home energised and fulfilled. I am definitely booking again.

Just breathe it in, this slower pace!
Claire, Brecon Cabilla Retreat 2025
This was my first Pilates retreat with Pila-Breathe and I would recommend it without hesitation. Dee and the team had thoughtfully planned the weekend; a beautiful location, delicious food, guided Pilates sessions with consideration given to our various physical abilities and conditions. Thank you!
Laura, Scotland, Cabilla Retreat 2025
What a truly fabulous Pilates Retreat. A truly magical few days. Everything was pitched perfectly from the range of pilates sessions, to the venue, catering and treatments. What a perfect way to spend a few days and definitely to be repeated.
Heather, Marlow, Porthcothan Retreat 2024
The Retreat was a five-star experience. It was an opportunity to relax, be active, walk, talk, and eat in the company of lovely people. Huge thanks to our excellent hosts.
Sue C, Marlow, Porthcothan Retreat 2024
I have just been on my second Pila-Breathe Pilates retreat with Dee Hudson in a temperate rain-forest in Cornwall! What a treat for the body and soul. It was a wonderful few days. A relaxed, positive, warm vibe, with great classes, delicious food by a private chef, and amazing experience getting closer to nature. Highly recommend!
Heidi, Chinnor, Cabilla Retreat 2025
This was my first Pilates retreat, but knowing Dee and the thought and care she puts into everything she does, I knew it would be special. To say it was special is not nearly enough. From the Pilates sessions, the location, the catering choices, everything was pure magic. For 3 wonderful days, I was able to focus on my own well-being journey, knowing I was being well looked after by Dee and team. I already can’t wait for the next one!
Daniella, Marlow, Cabilla Retreat 2025
Fantastic retreat in Cornwall. Our personal chef provided exceptional healthy meals and the Pilates workshops were bespoke and pitched at just the right level with tweaks for each participant.
Sue D, Marlow, Porthcothan Retreat 2024
I thoroughly enjoyed the menopause retreat day. It was a unique experience with warm friendly women and an opportunity to learn more about post menopause and maintaining strength and health going forward. Recommend it highly.
Sarah, Marlow, Menopause Day Retreat 2024
I thoroughly enjoyed the retreat day. There was so much information and advice and combined with practical sessions making it great balance. It was great to spend the day focusing on my health and wellbeing. Congratulations on such an great day. x
Dawn, Bourne End, Menopause Day Retreat 2024
Dee's Pila-Breathe Retreat™ in Cornwall was 11/10 - a perfect Pilates schedule including new concepts and techniques in a wonderful studio with a seaside setting, in conjunction with a warm, uplifting vibe and delicious healthy food - time to focus on the benefits of Pilates, experience new things and take a pause from the daily stresses of life. All with the bonus of old and new friends.
Heidi, Chinnor, Porthcothan Retreat 2024
Such a beautiful spirit-refreshing location, ideal for short or long walks, and the whole retreat - location, house, Pilates, food, co-retreaters - left me feeling thoroughly nurtured!
Rebecca, Marlow, Porthcothan Retreat 2025
Fantastic few days away, super quality of the facilities, classes, food and location. Highly recommend.
