You know the way we all always feel a little (or a lot, tbh) in need of major reset after Christmas?

Between the festive food we’ve been consuming and the party season leading up to the actual holidays and the winter weather and the general ‘Christmas is over’ blues, January can be a tough one.

However, we always find it helps to have something to look forward to, and this amazing five-star yoga retreat sounds like just the thing.

Set in the foothills of the Donegal Mountains, a luxury yoga break at the stunning Lough Eske Castle Hotel will take place from January 24th to January 26th 2020, and guys; we really, really want to go.

According to a spokesperson the tranquil retreat is designed to help you ‘switch off, reset and relax in blissful luxury’ at the lakeside location – and we reckon the package could be the perfect gift for the person looking to beat the January blues.
