Are you a Yoga teacher, Pilates or Reformer Pilates instructor dreaming of hosting your own retreat? ✨

One of the things that makes Sandhill House in Donegal so unique is our dedicated movement space, transforming from a beautiful yoga and mat Pilates studio into a fully equipped Reformer Pilates studio.

Take your community out of the studio and create a weekend combining:
Reformer Pilates.
Movement.
Nature.
Rest.
Connection.

Alongside the studio, your group can enjoy our sauna, hot tub, cold pod and fire hut, all surrounded by the wild beauty of Donegal.

If creating your own Reformer Pilates retreat is part of your plans for 2027, we’d love to hear from you.

Venue hire enquiries now open.

Your 2027 retreat might be closer than you think... 🌊💫

Sometimes we don’t need to do more.
We need space to step away.
To move our bodies.
To breathe.
To reconnect with nature.
To rest.
And to remember what it feels like to have time for ourselves.

Our 2027 women’s retreats at Sandhill House, Donegal are now open.

JOURNEY
A weekend of movement, nature, stillness, reflection and connection.
19–21 March | 17–19 September 2027

ALIGN
Our Reformer Pilates retreat combining strength and movement with yoga, nature, rest and restoration.
26–28 February | 9–11 April | 22–24 October 2027

Two different retreat experiences, with the same intention at their heart: creating space for women to reconnect with themselves.

Come on your own or with a friend. You’ll be warmly welcomed either way.
2027 bookings are now open.

Female Connection 💫

There’s something powerful about women coming together.

Away from the roles we hold, the expectations and the demands of everyday life.
We create space to reconnect with ourselves and with each other.

Through movement, meditation, intention, ritual and reflection, we slow down, tune in and listen more deeply to ourselves.

But often, it’s the connection between women that becomes the most powerful part.

The conversations and laughter. Being heard. Sharing experiences. Realising we’re not alone. Supporting and empowering one another.

For me, there’s a real sense of reclamation and freedom in these spaces.

Reclaiming our voice.
Our needs.
Our energy.
Our joy.
Our right to take up space and be ourselves.

Come and experience it for yourself. 💫
Our October Journey Day Retreat is fully booked.
Final spaces for November and remaining November Women’s Circle dates are now available.

Women’s Circle 💫

We are cyclical beings. We need time to pause, turn inward and restore, yet our busy modern lives rarely create that space for us.

Our Women’s Circles are about consciously choosing that pause.

Coming back to ourselves, reconnecting with what we need and reclaiming some of our time and energy without guilt.

Through movement, meditation and reflection, we create space to slow down, tune in and listen to ourselves more deeply.

And there is something powerful about doing this in circle with other women. Being witnessed, supported and reminded that so much of what we experience, we don’t experience alone.

It’s a space to reconnect with ourselves and with each other.

✨ Wednesday 7th October | 7–9pm
📍 Studio Be Glenavy

Why movement first?

We can arrive at a retreat, stop what we’re doing… and realise our minds haven’t stopped at all!

We’ve brought the busy week, the to-do list and all the things we’ve been carrying with us.

That’s why I always start with movement rather than stillness.

Movement helps us get out of our heads and back into our bodies.
Nature helps us slow down and settle.
And then stillness often comes more easily.

✨Movement. Nature. Stillness✨

It’s a simple approach, but one that has become central to how I create our retreats at Sandhill House.

I’ve shared more about why movement first in my latest blog.

One of the people who helps make every retreat at Sandhill House so special… ✨

Anyone who has been on retreat with us will know that Stevie is so much more than an incredible chef.

His food is always a highlight: fresh, nourishing, full of flavour and beautifully prepared. But it’s also the warmth, energy and enthusiasm he brings to every weekend.

Nothing is ever too much trouble, and he has a wonderful way of making everyone feel welcome and looked after.

Thank you Stevie, for everything you bring!✨

Happy Autumn Equinox 🍂

Today marks the point where day and night are equal, and from here the evenings gradually get darker.

I always find this time of year interesting. Part of me wants to hold onto the longer, brighter days...... but I’m also feeling the pull to slow down and cocoon inwards!

Nature reminds us that we can’t keep going at the same pace all year round.

So maybe the Autumn Equinox is a good time to check in with ourselves.

What feels out of balance?
What are we ready to let go of?
And where would it be good to create more space for rest?

Something I’m thinking about a lot as we head into our Autumn Equinox retreat this weekend.

Spent this weekend in nature, attuning to the energy of the season. 🍂

Next weekend is our Autumn Equinox Journey Retreat, and this is where the planning begins for me.

Out in nature, connecting with the land, slowing down and listening. This is where the inspiration comes.

The flow is beginning to emerge… 💫

REST • RELEASE • RECLAIM • EMBODY • ALIGN

A deeply feminine journey as we honour the Autumn Equinox and begin to let go into the season ahead. 🍂
