Wellness isn’t just about spa days and serenity; it’s about finding balance through movement, exploration, and connection with nature. At The Priory, we believe in the restorative power of staying active and offer a variety of invigorating activities to help you embrace wellness in a way that suits you.

Connect with Nature

The Priory Hotel Gardens - Location for Summer Yoga by the River Frome

Nestled in the heart of Dorset, our riverside retreat is perfectly positioned to connect you with nature’s bounty. Start your day with a brisk riverside walk, where the crisp air and soothing sounds of the water provide a natural reset for your mind and body.

For those seeking adventure, why not take to two wheels? Our e-bike tours make it easy to explore the rolling Dorset countryside, with the added thrill of effortless climbs.

Take to the Skies or the Greens

For the truly adventurous, gliding with Dorset Gliding offers a unique perspective of the county’s beauty. Soar through the skies and experience the meditative calm of gliding, a wellness experience unlike any other.

Prefer a day on the greens? We can arrange a golf outing tailored to your skill level and preferences at some of Dorset’s finest courses.

Embrace the Coastal Energy

The coast beckons, too, with opportunities for an invigorating sea swim. There’s nothing quite like the rejuvenating embrace of the ocean to awaken your senses and leave you feeling utterly alive.

Find Your Centre

Back at The Priory, we offer weekly yoga classes, designed to help you stretch, strengthen, and centre yourself, whether you’re a seasoned yogi or new to the mat. After an active day, the comforts of our cosy rooms await, inviting you to rest deeply and recover fully.

Nourish and Relax

Of course, wellness extends beyond movement. We encourage our guests to nourish their bodies with seasonal dishes crafted in The Garden Room restaurant, unwind with a good book by the fire, and take time to simply relax in the peaceful embrace of our surroundings.
