The restrictions may change frequently but Skyros continues to ensure social distancing, limit numbers and offer refreshing breaks in a beautiful, natural environment by the sea with outstanding facilitators. See www.skyros.com

Skyros offers UK retreats at The Grange by the Sea in the Isle of Wight which is designated as Tier One. If you're travelling to The Grange from an area Tier Two (which now includes London), Skyros continues with its current social distancing measures. Read the Safe Stays policy and take a look at recent guest reviews here.

Join Skyros for a short break, learn something new, meet likeminded people and enjoy delicious meals tailored to dietary requirements.
