Retreats for Writers in Connemara
Retreat Options
Space to write – individual getaway
This is for you if you need space to rest, to walk in the countryside, to write, and to socialise when you feel like it. You would have a room to yourself where you can retreat and work on your project, and an en suite bathroom, sharing the rest of the house with one or two other writers.
Bring your writers’ group
You can bring a group of up to 5 people to stay (in two double and one single rooms). In the summer camping is an option, to enable larger groups to stay. Get in touch to discuss what you would like to do.

Pricing
The price for a group retreat for 5 people is 1500 euro for a week. Contact us to discuss your dates and wishes.
The reason it’s so affordable is that we are just starting out. While we are discovering what’s possible, we won’t charge as much as a retreat offered by experienced providers, which can cost ten times as much. When we are sure that we’re on the right track we will increase our prices!
Please tell your writer friends and writers groups about us, as at the moment we are able to offer this budget option which may appeal to new writers.
