Your Own Private Retreat
Sound Healing Retreats
Ukulele Retreats
Do you long to get away from it all? A chance to escape from the stresses of everyday life? A chance to breathe, to unwind and just BE?
How about spending some time close to nature by the sea? You can connect more deeply with yourself and experience relaxation through sound healing or you might choose to learn the ukulele in a chilled out environment.
We are located in a beautiful area in west Cork just outside Clonakilty on the Wild Atlantic Way. We have been successfully offering self-catering breaks on Airbnb for the last 5 years and are so delighted now to offer a deeper experience.
At ‘Shearwater Chalet’ you will find peace and quiet in a cosy one bed studio. We have self-catering retreat packages that are 2 or 3 nights long, but you are welcome to book in for additional nights if you want to have more time relaxing or exploring this beautiful area.
You can choose to treat yourself to some time alone or to bring a loved one.
Sound healing sessions and ukulele tuition take place in ‘Shearwater Cottage’ treatment room, which is just next door to the chalet. The rest of the time you are free to walk the beach, journal, take time out for yourself in nature. We are 2 minutes walk from Long Strand and there are forest and lake walks on our doorstep. The nearby towns of Rosscarbery and Clonakilty have award-winning restaurants.
For me this solo retreat was the ultimate. The chalet is really cosy and the location by the beach is great. I loved being able to cook my own food and having my own space. Claire is very friendly and I enjoyed the medicine walk and sound healing treatment. After my trip, I felt really good and rested and better able to deal with things. I would love to come back again soon.’
