Testimonials of Tara Nature Retreat
A oasis of peace and calm in the midst of Umbria’s authentic and beautiful landscape. Caroline and Timothy have exceeded our expectations with what they offer at Tara Nature. From comfy beds to amazing food, we had it all. As a retreat organiser I particularly loved the clear and easy communication with the Tara Nature Retreats hosts.
Tara Nature Retreat is an absolute gem! The location is beautifully secluded and completely surrounded by nature, making it the perfect place to escape and recharge. The facilities are spotless, and you can genuinely feel the love and spirit that has been poured into the house. The pool is simply the best, a real highlight of the stay. Timothy and Caroline are such sweet and attentive hosts. They are incredibly responsive and go out of their way to make sure you feel looked after and at home. Highly recommend this retreat place if you are looking for peace, quiet, and stunning natural surroundings.
🌿 Tara Nature Retreat is a dream come true. I had the pleasure of hosting a women’s retreat here and from start to finish, the experience was nothing short of extraordinary. Tim and Caroline, the owners, are simply wonderful—kind, welcoming, and attentive. Tim was incredibly responsive and supportive during the entire 7-month planning process, which made organizing everything feel smooth and grounded. The villa was exactly as described: warm, inviting, and comfortable. The 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms easily accommodated our group of 16 women. The shared living room was spacious and cozy—a great place to gather between our yoga, meditation, and creative classes. The yoga shala is a truly sacred space with beautiful energy, and the outdoor yoga deck is something magical. I hosted a YogaRhythmics dance session there and it was unforgettable—there’s something about moving and connecting with nature on that land that feels deeply healing. We also enjoyed the pool, which offered the perfect balance of fun and relaxation during our downtime. Tara Nature Retreat exceeded my expectations in every way. The property is stunning, the energy is peaceful, and it holds space for transformation, connection, and joy. I can’t recommend it highly enough—and I’m already dreaming of coming back.
We had an amazing time at Tara Nature Retreat! Thank you to Tim, Caroline, and their wonderful team for hosting us so warmly and creating the perfect space for our retreat. Everything was so well organized, and the peaceful nature with breathtaking views made it truly special. Our chef was incredible, and every meal was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a serene and inspiring retreat experience!
I hosted my one week yoga retreat at Tara Nature Retreat and it was amazing - I can really recommend this place: Tim and Caroline, the owners of this place, and the team with Nikoleta, Betka and Michaela made our time unforgettable. We practiced twice a day on the beautiful outdoor yoga deck which is just in the middle of the nature where you can reconnect with her easily. The rooms in the house are clean and with lovely interior. The food was vegan/vegetarian with many gluten-free options. Any wishes we had the team made it possible. There are many little spots around the pool and the house where it's sunny or in the shade where you can just relax - I would host another retreat there for sure!!
I had the most magical time at Tara Nature retreat. I was there for a yoga nidra training and the environment was perfect for it. The outdoor yoga platform is surrounded by trees and everyday the sun rose over us as we had our morning practice. the indoor space was very cozy and had everything you could ask for in a yoga space. The hosts Timothy, Caroline, and baby Tammy were warm, welcoming and treated everyone there with so much kindness. I got to explore the property and was surprised how big it is. There’s lots to explore! I can’t wait to go back:)

Highly recommend, lovely hosts, care and attention top marks, natural rustic surroundings ideallic with a lovely swimming pool and outdoor spaces to utilise and enjoy. Lindsey @yoganuu
Beautiful nature retreat, set amongst trees and a big sky. The wooden deck was absolutely amazing to dance on and for yoga sessions, especially sunset dances! The yogashala is well equipped with a great soundsystem - Bose speakers. Speakers are fitted to the wall which provides more space for moving bodies. The rooms are comfortable with plenty of space to hang clothes, always a bonus. Many bathrooms for the group and views from all windows . The food is healthy, tasty and pleasant surprises with each meal. Loved the coffee! And the teas were just right in between sessions. The fire pit provided moments of laughter and sharing. Last, but not least - the swimming pool provided coolness and laughter and lazing in the sun. Will come again!
Tara Nature Retreat in Umbria is a very special place. It is completely immersed in nature and the accommodation and land are full of character with thoughtful touches everywhere. Every space feels intentionally created with care and soul. There are so many beautiful little places to sit and unwind. You can relax in the trees, settle into a quiet spot overlooking the fields, or drift away in a hammock while listening to the sounds of nature. It is the kind of place that invites you to soften, slow down, and tune into the stillness within yourself. Timothy and Caroline were incredibly accommodating from the moment we arrived. They could not have done more for us. Their presence throughout the Total Yoga Nidra training was warm, supportive, and deeply appreciated. They carry a calming energy that blends perfectly with the land and the atmosphere they have created. If you are looking for a retreat space that feels sacred, nurturing, and close to nature, Tara Nature Retreat is truly something special. I left feeling restored, inspired, and very grateful for the experience.
