Details of this retreat

Description:
Take some time out for YOU at Caroline’s October Spring Reset Yoga & Pilates Retreat.
Caroline has been teaching Yoga, Barre and now Mat Pilates Classes for over 16 years and is currently training in Reformers Pilates so the classes in this retreat will be a mix of both energising Yoga, Pilates for Core & Back Strength and Restorative Blissful Relaxation.
She has hosted many half day retreats in the summer months and now she is so excited to say she is hosting her third full weekend retreat at the stunning Deerstone Retreat Centre.
It is the most beautiful setting, tucked into a wooden valley in Roundwood with such a peaceful Mountain setting, Deerstone is the perfect escape to reset your energy and take such precious time away from it all.
The weekend will be pure relaxation where you will have a choice of unwinding in the saunas, invigorating ice baths and a hydro pool, in between your yoga & Pilates sessions and the most delicious food by our talented private chef.
The accommodation of cottages and shepherd huts each have their own sauna and hot tubs to add that extra touch of luxury.
Caroline is delighted to be your host for this very special weekend of laughter, movement and deep relaxation in such a unique setting!

''The April Reset at The Deerstone was a truly transformative experience. The whole spot is tucked away in nature, so the setting is incredibly calm and quiet—a complete escape from the outside world. The accommodation is top-notch, and the facilities—particularly the hot tubs and saunas—are absolutely top-tier.
Having practiced yoga with Caroline for eight years, I can honestly say that she is an exceptional teacher. She is extremely real, down-to-earth, and approachable, with a unique ability to make every single person feel included and special.
The schedule offered a perfect balance of structured classes and downtime. It was so easy to just hang out and connect with others in the group or retreat for some restorative alone time. The food was unbelievably delicious, and having the opportunity for a glass of wine and some banter by the fire in the evening was the perfect way to end the day. I couldn't recommend this retreat more highly.'' - Brooke

Amazing stay as always

Had an absolutely beautiful few days celebrating my birthday at the wonderful Deerstone in Wicklow. Definitely my favourite spot on the planet!
From the moment you arrive, there's such a lovely sense of peace and calm. The relaxed ambience, stunning natural surroundings and thoughtful little touches make this place so incredibly special.
Myself, my sister enjoyed cosy evenings by the fire, relaxing outdoor baths, surrounded by nature. There's something truly magical about the Deerstone. It's a place that gently encourages you to slow down, breathe a little deeper and simply enjoy being in the moment.
It's not just somewhere to stay, it's an experience that nourishes the mind, body and soul.
We also enjoyed a beautiful day exploring Glendalough, making the most of the gorgeous Wicklow countryside with my favourite little furry friend Daisy, who also adores the Deerstone!
It's not often you find somewhere that feels so peaceful and restorative, yet so welcoming and homely.
I came home with a very full heart, lovely memories and a renewed sense of calm.
Thank you to everyone at Deerstone for another truly special experience. The sweetest staff.

I never wanted to leave

My stay at the Deerstone was the highlight of my trip to Ireland. After I booked, the team began communicating with me to ensure my stay would be exactly as I hoped. They arranged for a massage on the property and had my wood-fired pizza ready for me for dinner later that evening. It was the perfect end to a day spent hiking in the nearby mountains.

The property itself is lovely - filled with native plants and set up in a way that creates privacy and community equally. I really enjoyed my hut, which was perfectly appointed with everything I needed for my stay: sandals for the sauna and cold plunge areas, shoes for walking the grounds, robes, blankets, a private fireplace outside next to my seating area, a private Japanese bath outside, all the firewood I needed, and a breakfast bonnet with some of the best yogurt, compote and granola I've ever had. They even delivered me fresh ground decaf coffee when I inquired.

I highly recommend The Deerstone to individuals, couples, and groups looking for a peaceful, quiet, relaxing, and intentional stay.

An exceptional stay in a breathtaking setting

This was truly an exceptional stay. From the moment we arrived, everything was absolutely beautiful.

The entire property and grounds are stunning, incredibly well looked after and exceptionally clean. It’s clear how much care and attention the owners put into the place. We saw them around every day, working and making sure everything was perfect. They were so lovely, friendly and helpful, and all of the staff were equally welcoming and attentive.

The cottage was absolutely amazing, beautiful, cozy and incredibly comfortable. It genuinely felt like a home away from home, while still having all the facilities and little luxuries you would expect from the best hotels.

The sauna, hydro pool and jacuzzi were fantastic, and the relaxation area was beautiful, peaceful and so cozy. The views were absolutely breathtaking, making the whole setting truly spectacular.

We spent two fabulous days here with my mum, cousin and aunt, and we all absolutely loved it. We also enjoyed some delicious pizzas during our stay, lovely, freshly made pizzas with a perfect thin crust!

A huge thank you to the owners and the entire team for making our stay so special. We absolutely loved every minute and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

A serene, unplugged escape in the beautiful Wicklow wilderness

We spent two nights here, in one of the shepherd's huts, and it did us the world of good. From the saunas to the cold plunges, Japanese baths to the stoves, there was so much to occupy body and mind - encouraging you to unplug from routine. Barely looked at our phones all weekend, went on beautiful hikes, listened to live music in the local pub, read our books in bed till 11am, played darts... To top it all off, they have thought of everything. Dressing gowns, towel robes, flip-flops, an honesty bar, and wonderful staff. You'll want for nothing, and spend your time there totally at peace. Highly recommend, and will most certainly be back.
