Immerse Yourself in Nature

Nestled in the Wild Atlantic Way, a scenic driving route that stretches along the western coast of Ireland. It is one of the longest defined coastal driving routes in the world, covering approximately 2,500 kilometers from County Donegal in the north to County Cork in the south. It is an awe-inspiring stretch of coastal beauty that captures the essence of Ireland’s untamed wild landscape. Towering cliffs, pounded by the mighty Atlantic Ocean, command attention with their sheer majesty, while secluded beaches offer a tranquil respite amidst the wildness. 

The Wild Atlantic Way is an invitation to embrace the untamed, to lose yourself in the raw beauty of nature, and to witness the extraordinary power and tranquillity that coexist along this mesmerizing coastal journey. The retreat center is within walking distance to the Cliffs of Moher, a UNSECO World Heritage sight. 

Retreat activities include

Imagine a generous resort where your every need has been lovingly thought through. where every space is filled with abundant beauty and where your comfort is the primary concern. Where every detail has been carefully and lovingly crafted to allow you to relax, let go and enjoy.
Imagine a backdrop with the mighty Atlantic Ocean crashing on the shore and the awesome Cliffs of Moher rising from the depths.
Imagine an ancient landscape bathed in history and folklore, where music and story weave its magic in daily life.
Imagine a spectacular coastline with long sandy beaches and country lanes lined with crumbling stone walls with grass growing in the centre. A place where warmth of heart and wildness of spirit is in the people, the land and the air.
