Christmas Retreat

Boats: dep. Lamlash Dec 21, 2010 - dep. Holy Isle Dec 27, 2010
Cost:
£270 singles, £195 twin room each, £150 dorms. Suggested retreat donation of £75
Instead of partaking in the over indulgence associated with this time of the year, come and join us on beautiful Holy Isle and reconnect with peace and compassion within.
We will offer basic instructions in meditation and we will set up a simple meditation schedule. People will be free to participate in as much or as little of the teachings and schedule as they choose. They will also have time to relax and enjoy the island and each other's company. The food will be a vegetarian fare - lavish and deliciously wholesome!

Important Travel Information

Therefore, you should consider getting travel insurance on any flights or fixed reservation train tickets.
