Lake Isle Retreats Center

An amazing time away at this fab retreat - food was incredible & the hospitality was superb. Tim is a delightful Soul & such a joy to spend time with. Exploring the Krishna way of life was so enlightening & beautiful. I cannot wait for my next visit x

I went to Lake Isle retreats to get away from the stress of life and personal issues. My initial thoughts were it's just some yoga, meditation etc. But what I got was so much more. Tim was an excellent host. The food was amazing as were the other guests. But what I found there ironically was myself. More than I have in a very long time. Through deep talks with a couple of the monks. Mahamantra meditating and Tim's chants. Being surrounded in beautiful nature around the lakes. It was literally a world away. And done me very good personally. Triggering a deep change and personal healing. Also making friends with one of the monks and keeping in touch. I highly recommend this retreat for a getaway but also as a way to reconnect with yourself, your heart and spirit.

Thanks to Tim, Lucy and the team at Lake Isle Retreat, beautiful surroundings, incredible food, very relaxing weekend, highly recommended. Every person on the retreat came on their own, if you need a weekend break away to yourself then this is the place. Yoga, meditation, reiki, massage, forest walks, only 1.5 hour drive from Dublin.

From start to finish Tim and the team took such amazing care of us (group of 10). The accommodation is clean, comfortable and a home from home. Not being a vegetarian myself I was reticent for the thoughts of having a totally vegetarian diet throughout my say..... gotta say I was pleasantly surprised!! The food was amazing, home made and even home grown!! Tim is an amazing host in and amazing setting! From long walks in the surrounding forest, swimming in the lake, amazing food, the opportunity to experience the Hare Krishna faith and temple and having the opportunity to share an amazing experience with friends. Would highly recommend a stay here... you truly wont be disappointed!!!

For my first yoga weekend, I had a great experience at Lake Isle. I felt guided and taken care of the entire weekend so it was easy to fully relax and enjoy the yoga classes and meditation sessions. My room was very comfortable and the food was just delicious. Thanks to Tim and is team everything ran smoothly in a calm atmosphere. I brought a part of Lake Isle with me when I left the retreat.

I promised myself I would return to Lake Isle and I had the pleasure of returning to attend the 'Relax & Restore Retreat'. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in this peaceful environment and I loved meeting new people, being hosted by the lovely Tim and his friends. If you want an escape from your busy life and time to meditate, practice yoga, enjoy fab treatments and just chill I highly recommend this retreat! It is fantastic value for money and you are spoiled with scenic views, warm hospitality and a slower pace of life. I will definitely be returning for a 3rd time. Thank you Tim!

We really enjoyed this weekend as it gave us ample opportunity to relax, unwind, meditate, while eating unbelievably delicious detoxifying food, hosted by the zen master of calm that is Tim. Just a wonderful weekend located in a fantastic location.

I had such a wonderful time at this weekend yoga retreat. The food was great. I enjoyed the yoga classes so much and had two wonderful treatments. The highlight for me was visiting the Hare Krishna temple for the service, it was such a unique and enjoyable experience. Tim and friends are wonderful hosts.

Needing a break from the demands of a normal hectic life I booked this retreat on a whim but thankfully it was just what I needed and I was glad I had the courage to travel solo. The yoga, complimentary therapies, meditation, walks, the stars and beautiful setting were just so relaxing and peaceful. Tim kindly gives guests a chance to experience the Kristna Temple and learn more about Hare Kristna life, purely optional of course, but with an open mind it is an 'interesting' experience. Top marks for Carmen's uplifting humour and vegetarian food which was truly delicious. The warm, compassionate atmosphere in the house among staff and guests made this retreat so special. There were a lot of laughs even without a wine glass in sight! Perfect for getting back to basics, de-cluttering the mind and energizing the soul. Definitely a restore and retreat to consider. Thanks to all for a memorable weekend.

I don’t normally leave reviews but I had such a unique experience while at the retreat I felt the need to say how good it was. I travelled alone for the first time ever so was very nervous but I had no need. On arrival the house was warm and welcoming. The group of ladies were fantastic, the retreat included yoga mediation, Thai chi, forest walks and some me time with massages and reiki which were both fabulous. The best part was the food the lovely carmen cooked everything fresh and although vegan/vegetarian it was some of the most delicious food I have ever had. There was an option to visit the Hare Krishna temple on the nearby Ireland by a boat which was a real unique if not totally bizarre experience. Tim was one of a kind and very open and welcoming and willing to answer my many questions throughout the weekend. I would most definitely recommend the retreat to anyone looking a break from normal life it was fabulous and I look forward to my return. Thanks Tim ???? Great time, great retreat.

This is a really fab place to spend the weekend relaxing and shaking off all the cares in the world. Great activities including Tai Chi and yoga plus great vegetarian food. Accommodation is great, basic but very clean and always warm. Tim is a great host and Carmen’s meals are delicious. A chance to visit a Hare Krshna temple is too good to miss. So if you need to unwind and relax head off to Lake Isle Retreats.
