Escape the distractions of daily life and join us for an inspiring Sewing & Yoga Retreat, at The Goat House Retreat in the tranquil County Down countryside!
Over two days and one night, you'll have dedicated sewing time in a beautiful studio space to work on a project of your choosing under the expert guidance of acclaimed teacher Sharelene Oldroyd. Sharlene, who has been sewing since her mum bought her her first sewing machine at the age of five, brings over six years of teaching experience to help you enhance your skills and bring your creative vision to life. Whether you're working on a quilt, garment, or any other sewing masterpiece, our retreat offers the perfect blend of focused work and social interaction.
Come and connect with fellow sewing enthusiasts in a warm, welcoming environment. Share tips, exchange ideas, and enjoy the camaraderie of like-minded creators. Our sessions are designed to be both productive and fun, ensuring you leave not only with a finished project but also with new friends and fresh inspiration.
To complement your creative endeavours, we offer rejuvenating yoga sessions led by our resident yogi, Lorna Nelson of Mourne Yoga. These classes are specifically designed to provide much-needed relief for achy backs and shoulders and to soothe tired minds. Suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners alike, Lorna's yoga sessions will help you unwind at the end of the day.
Throughout the retreat, you'll be treated to two delicious vegetarian meals each day, ensuring you stay nourished and energized. With plenty of wholesome and satisfying options, you'll never go hungry!
Join us for this unique experience, where you can enhance your sewing skills, explore your creativity, unwind with yoga, and connect with a group of like-minded people.
