Yoga, massage and detoxification: om his majesty's secret retreat

In a visit that remained a closely guarded secret, Charles and Queen Camilla arrived quietly in India last Saturday and drove to Soukya holistic health centre, a wellness resort on the outskirts of the southern city of Bengaluru. The centre is a favourite of the royal couple, who have visited several times, and is where Charles spent his 71st birthday, but this was his first visit to India since becoming king.

Set in a luscious 12-hectare organic farm filled with vegetables, fruits and traditional medicinal herbs, Soukya - which derives from the Sanskrit word for harmony - describes itself as a place to restore the "body's natural balance of mind, body and spirit".
