Have you every wanted to be taken around the Burren as opposed to finding your own way? This three-day Burren Outdoor Retreat offers you the opportunity to visit some of the most secret and sacred places in the Burren with local guides to inspire and guide us as we go. 

And there is so much to experience – from famine roads to penal chapels to mass rocks to monastic settlements. Not to mention various examples of limestone pavements, stone walls and vernacular architecture.

You are most welcome to join us this April for a weekend in this unique and precious landscape. We will be based in Spanish Point and travel daily to several sites, returning home each evening to a warm dinner. 

The cost for the 4 day weekend is only €220 residential/110 non residential.  A deposit of €100 secures your place.

Creativity Mindfulness
The purpose of centering prayer is not to experience peace, but to clear the unconscious obstacles to the permanent abiding state of union with God. Centering prayer is not so much an exercise of attention as intention. Our intention is to be present to God’s presence and actions in our lives. Centering prayer is not a way of turning on the presence of God. Rather, it is a way of saying “Here I am.” \Scene from house looking out over the sea. Top of image, sun shining through cloud.
