Details of this retreat

Description:
Take some time out for YOU at Caroline’s October Spring Reset Yoga & Pilates Retreat.
Caroline has been teaching Yoga, Barre and now Mat Pilates Classes for over 16 years and is currently training in Reformers Pilates so the classes in this retreat will be a mix of both energising Yoga, Pilates for Core & Back Strength and Restorative Blissful Relaxation.
She has hosted many half day retreats in the summer months and now she is so excited to say she is hosting her third full weekend retreat at the stunning Deerstone Retreat Centre.
It is the most beautiful setting, tucked into a wooden valley in Roundwood with such a peaceful Mountain setting, Deerstone is the perfect escape to reset your energy and take such precious time away from it all.
The weekend will be pure relaxation where you will have a choice of unwinding in the saunas, invigorating ice baths and a hydro pool, in between your yoga & Pilates sessions and the most delicious food by our talented private chef.
The accommodation of cottages and shepherd huts each have their own sauna and hot tubs to add that extra touch of luxury.
Caroline is delighted to be your host for this very special weekend of laughter, movement and deep relaxation in such a unique setting!

''The April Reset at The Deerstone was a truly transformative experience. The whole spot is tucked away in nature, so the setting is incredibly calm and quiet—a complete escape from the outside world. The accommodation is top-notch, and the facilities—particularly the hot tubs and saunas—are absolutely top-tier.
Having practiced yoga with Caroline for eight years, I can honestly say that she is an exceptional teacher. She is extremely real, down-to-earth, and approachable, with a unique ability to make every single person feel included and special.
The schedule offered a perfect balance of structured classes and downtime. It was so easy to just hang out and connect with others in the group or retreat for some restorative alone time. The food was unbelievably delicious, and having the opportunity for a glass of wine and some banter by the fire in the evening was the perfect way to end the day. I couldn't recommend this retreat more highly.'' - Brooke

Just being…
Just spent 2 glorious days in a Deerstone cottage. Started the day with a great yoga session followed by a delicious breakfast supplied to each cottage. Loved using the sauna and outdoor plunge pools, followed by a walk around stunning Glendalough. Very enjoyable place to get away from it all.

Wellness Retreat
I cannot speak highly enough of this setting, their staff, the quality of the accommodations, the absolutely delicious food and the whole experience of the recent Would You Be Well retreat hosted by Clare McKenna. It was the perfect setting and surroundings, notwithstanding the Irish weather, and every little touch made such a difference to the experience. Would highly recommend, and can't wait to return!
