ShaktiNest is the heart of our FayNest. It was only at the beginning of 2025 that the dream of having our own Yogshala became reality. What was originally a beautiful 3-room apartment with a view of the Rhine now shines in new splendor as a spacious, open room with an exposed roof truss, wood-burning stove and attic. Of course, there is still a view of the Rhine! J The 75 m² workshop space can comfortably accommodate up to 16 yogis on their mats, for example. The fire and the scienic view provides the perfect atmosphere for spiritual practices. The 20 m² attic offers for example overnight accommodation for facilitators of retreats. The ShaktiNest also has a kitchen and a shower room - however, for events, we prefer to shower and cook in the ShivaNest.

Our GardenNest is a spacious meadow that separates the ferry house from the riverbank. This idyllic place in the middle of nature, surrounded by orchard trees and with a direct view and access to the banks of the Rhine, invites you to relax during a retreat.

Nests for retreat guests

LoveNest, ShantiNest and ShivaNest are three beautiful, lovingly furnished apartments that can also be booked individually. Alternatively, they can be booked as part of a retreat together with ShaktiNest, the large yoga room in the same building. There are three apartments in total, each with a bathroom and a kitchen (including a community area at ShivaNest). With a total of seven bedrooms equipped with double and single beds, the house can comfortably accommodate 7 to 14 participants.
