Flowground
Breathe deep beside the paddies
Rice paddies, an airy yoga shala and a pool that opens onto the green landscape set the scene at Flowground, a small retreat house near Ahangama’s south coast. With five bedrooms, the scale feels personal rather than resort-like, while communal spaces make room for shared time between quieter moments. It is a setting geared toward slowing down: light-filled interiors, open air and broad views of the surrounding fields give the house a calm, grounded feel. Flowground’s website is the place to check current retreats and practical details before you travel. The center operates on a paid basis, though specific rates depend on the booking. With its combination of a yoga space, pool and restful accommodation, Flowground suits travelers looking for a retreat atmosphere in the countryside without being far from the coast.
Highlights
- Open-air yoga shala overlooking the surrounding landscape
