A yoga teacher takes responsibility for a woodland venue
Clophill Eco Lodges has a new owner, with existing bookings protected while gradual changes are planned.
Hitchin yoga teacher Hannah Fraser has taken over Clophill Eco Lodges in Bedfordshire, according to a November 9 announcement published under her name by Nub News.
Continuity comes before a new programme
The announcement says Clophill Heritage Trust sold the six-lodge site beside Old St Mary’s Church. Fraser, who has taught through Worker Bee Yoga since 2021, is leaving a marketing career to run the venue full time.
The lodges’ own website confirms the change of ownership. It says the existing team is staying and current bookings are unaffected. The site includes six lodges and shared buildings, set along the Greensand Ridge.
Fraser’s announcement describes a phased refresh through 2027. It is an account from the new owner, not an independent assessment of the business or a confirmed timetable of future yoga retreats. The immediate commitment is more concrete: keep the place operating while changes are introduced. For a teacher becoming a venue owner, caring for bookings, staff and an existing community becomes part of the work alongside any future teaching plans.
