## Hosting a retreat

- How many people can I bring? The largest space, the Victoria Folly Shala, takes 26 and the Yin Shala 22. There are 17 rooms across the estate. Large groups take the whole venue; smaller groups rent a few rooms.
- Can we rent just a few rooms? Yes. Smaller groups rent the rooms they need and share the shalas and the terrace with the other guests. It is often the simplest way to run a first retreat here. Say how many you are and we quote for it.
- Will the estate be ours alone? Yes, if you rent the whole venue: the shalas, the terrace, the pool and the kitchen run to your timetable, and no other guests move through them. No, if you rent just a few rooms for a smaller group: you share the estate and the shalas with other guests.
- What is included for my guests? Your rent includes the accommodation, three vegetarian meals a day, a fully equipped yoga shala and use of the pool. Activities and excursions are run by the Welikande team for your group and quoted separately from the rent.
- Do I pay for my own room? No. The host stays for free, and has exclusive use of the shalas when the whole venue is taken.
- Do we need to bring mats or props? No. Mats made locally from natural rubber, wooden blocks made on the estate and bolsters upholstered in house are kept here, in sets for twenty.
- Can you cater for vegans and allergies? Yes. Three vegetarian meals a day are cooked by Tush, and vegan and dietary requirements are normal here, not an exception. Packed food comes with you when the group is off-site.
- How do my guests get here? Colombo airport is about four hours away and we arrange transfers, $85 per car each way. Kandy, the nearest town and station, is 45 minutes.
- Does it have to be yoga? No. Yoga, dance, art or writing: the spaces are open-air and the week is organised around what you teach.
