are experiencing conflicting joy and sorrow during a natural life transition
Food and drink information
Throughout the event, tea, coffee, and light snacks will be available.
On Friday, we advise you to either have some food before the retreat begins or bring your own snacks.
On Saturday and Sunday, a light lunch will be provided within the retreat cost.
Location information
The retreat activity is all being held at the beautiful Heather Lodge, either in the Holly Room, Banner Lodge, or in the peaceful garden grounds.
It’s the perfect place to engage in group practices, giving you a tranquil haven to recharge and reconnect. There’s also an impressive fire ring and even a secluded waterfall, so there’s plenty of room to contemplate during your downtime.
Heather Lodge is an oasis hidden conveniently steps away from the Brodick ferry terminal on the mystical Isle of Arran. So if you’re travelling by Ferry, it’s less than a 5-minute walk.
Once known in Gaelic as An t’Eilan Ubhalach, or Isle of Apples, Arran may be the Avalon of Arthurian legends, where the mortally wounded King Arthur sought respite. Certainly, it’s rich and ancient history and stunning scenery make it an ideal location for a modern escape from the everyday.
Accommodation information
The Heather Lodge does not offer accommodation options, so you will need to make your own arrangements if you are travelling to Arran to join us and need a place to stay.
The closest place to the retreat location is The Douglas Hotel. Anywhere in the Brodick area would be within walking distance from Heather Lodge.
The Visit Arran website has an extensive listing of a range of accommodations. They also have plenty of detail on the rich history, local talents, stunning landscape, and more that the island has to offer, if you wanted to extend your stay to truly immerse yourself in the magic of this mythical place.
