Wellness Retreats on the West Coast of Ireland
When you search for a weekend break Ireland, you are likely looking for more than just a hotel room and a breakfast buffet.
You are probably looking for a pause button.
Possibly seeking a space to breathe, to step away from the relentless pace of modern life, and to find a moment of genuine peace.
Here at the Burren Yoga Retreat, we offer an experiential break that goes far deeper than the standard getaway.
Our retreats are designed to be the ultimate weekend break Ireland has to offer.
Here, you don’t just visit a location; you immerse yourself in the mystical energy of The Burren.
You spend time in Nature, meet new like-minded people, and learn valuable skills that will improve the quality of your life after you return home.
Many weekend getaways provide a temporary distraction, but a retreat with us provides lasting tools for well-being.
What better skills to learn to improve your life than techniques to relax and let go of stress?
On a weekend break Ireland at our wellness retreat centre, you will learn new breathing techniques, discover how to meditate, and practice yoga that is suitable for everybody.
We believe that a true weekend break Ireland should leave you feeling energized, not exhausted.
Whether you join us for one of our specific weekend breaks or opt for a longer stay, the focus is always on restoring your physical and mental health as well as enjoying our guided outings in the Burren hills and by the sea.
We have over 25 years of experience running our yoga and meditation retreats, so we know exactly how to guide you toward deep relaxation.
One of the most common questions we get is whether you need to be fit or experienced to come here.
The answer is of course not.
Our retreat breaks Ireland are suitable for everyone.
We welcome all ages, from 14 to those in their 80s.
Whether you are a complete beginner to yoga or an advanced practitioner, our expert teachers will ensure you are looked after.
The same applies to our guided outings; whether you are completely unfit or a seasoned hill walker, our weekend break Ireland packages are tailored to let you move at your own pace.
You can challenge yourself on the hills or take a gentle stroll by the sea.
While many people look specifically for a weekend break Ireland, we understand that your schedule might not always fit the traditional Friday-to-Sunday model.
That is why we offer incredible flexibility.
You are not limited to just weekend breaks.
We run our retreats all year round, offering midweek breaks and weekday breaks as well.
On our week-long retreats, we have a “flexi-date” option where you can book any 2 to 6 nights that suit you.
This means you can craft your own getaway breaks.
You might choose to arrive on a Tuesday and leave on a Thursday, or combine a weekend with a few weekdays.
This flexibility makes us one of the most accessible retreat breaks in the country.
There is always a retreat available when you want it.
So, if you are looking for short breaks that fit around your work or family commitments, we have the perfect solution.
We believe wellness should be accessible.
For those searching for cheap weekend getaways, we recently introduced a new budget option: a shared female dormitory with bunk beds.
This offers the full weekend break Ireland experience—the same amazing classes, food, and outings—at a more affordable price point of just €490 for the weekend.
For those preferring more privacy on their weekend break Ireland, our luxury en-suite single bedrooms offer hotel-quality comfort, underfloor heating, and total silence for the best night’s sleep of your life.
A key part of any weekend break Ireland with us is the location.
We are situated in the heart of The Burren on the west coast of Ireland.
This is a place of ancient beauty, vast limestone pavements, and unique flora.
During your weekend break Ireland, you will explore this ancient landscape with an experienced guide.
We take you off the beaten track to special places most tourists never see.
Imagine standing on a hill with distant horizons, looking out over Galway Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, breathing in the purest air in Europe.
Spending time in Nature is essential for assimilating the yoga and meditation practices.
But it is also about having fun!
On your weekend break Ireland, you might find yourself sea swimming in the refreshing Atlantic, enjoying a hill walk, or simply taking a meditative stroll along the coastline.
No weekend break Ireland is complete without exceptional food. We are famous for our vegetarian cuisine. Our experienced in-house chef prepares mouth-watering meals using fresh, local, organic ingredients.
In addition to our own food, we stop at the best local cafes during our guided outings to sample the finest local cuisine.
This adds a lovely social element to our retreat breaks, allowing you to chat with other guests in a relaxed, warm, and friendly atmosphere.
Planning your weekend break Ireland shouldn’t be stressful.
We are very easy to get to.
We are just 50 minutes from Shannon Airport, and easily accessible by car or public transport from Dublin, Galway, and Cork.
Our reputation speaks for itself.
We have won the Tripadvisor award of excellence for the past 15 years in a row. The high-quality reviews on Google and Tripadvisor testify to the transformative nature of our retreat breaks Ireland.
Guests often tell us that their weekend break Ireland felt longer and more restorative than a two-week holiday elsewhere.
The atmosphere here is warm, friendly, and fun. You can come on your own, with a friend, or with a partner. Many of our guests arrive solo and leave with new friends. It is a safe space to rest and restore.
So, if you are looking for the perfect weekend break Ireland, or perhaps thinking about short breaks during the week, look no further. We offer the perfect blend of relaxation, activity, top-quality teachers, and exceptional food in a world-class wellness retreat.
Why settle for ordinary weekend getaways when you can experience something extraordinary?
