I arrived back not fully appreciating how much I’d learnt and a sense of quiet resilience unfolded over the following days. I cannot recommend Dzogchen Beara highly enough
Shane
I spent an amazing retreat weekend here, my heart was broken into thousands of pieces and this special place started the process of glueing it back together. Thank you.

This was my first attempt at connecting with my mind to find out more about myself. Will definitely come back. Dzogchen Beara and the people here have a magical vibe, it touches you in so many ways.

An oasis of serenity in a crazy world, Dzogchen Beara is without doubt the most serene peaceful place I have ever set foot in. The feel good vibe is buzzing throughout the place and the staff / volunteers are amazingly helpful.
Gloria
I had the absolute delight in attending a retreat in Dzogchen Beara. The setting is breathtaking, the vast ocean spread out as far as the eye can see. The retreat….. Well, simply put, book in for one ASAP, I can’t wait to return!

Each time I visit Ireland, I go to Dzogchen Beara. This amazing place allows you to step off the merry-go-round to rest awhile. It’s an experience that brings a smile to my face and joy to my heart.
