ACCOMMODATION & THE AREA
We will be staying in a beautiful Airbnb Farmhouse ‘Glenhaven” which is nestled in Glenariffe Glen and is surrounded by mountains and fields. The house is only a few min's drive (about 10 mins walk) from Waterfoot Beach, a long sandy beach, and also a few min's drive to the famous Glenariffe Forest Park so the natural landscape will be a beautiful backdrop for a weekend of relaxing, healing, self-development and self-care.
Rooms are modern and have fresh decor and all have ensuite bathrooms. There is another larger shared bathroom, an open-plan kitchen, and a comfortable living room which will also be shared.
We will have use of a converted Barn aka 'The Sanctuary Barn' on site for all classes and workshops as well as a large garden with mountain views and a fire pit with a comfortable seating area.

On the retreat Eimear will be leading us in Yoga Nidra in the Sanctuary Barn as well as a gentle Vinyasa style flow on the beach at sunrise. Her classes are relaxed, playful and uplifting with a focus on nature, compassion and self love.
