Springfield Castle in Dromcollogher, County Limerick, is the setting for this six-day programme. The castle is historic and quiet, and the whole week happens on site — you sleep there, eat there, and do the sessions there. That removes the usual logistics of a detox week: no driving between classes and meals, no deciding where to eat.
Each day has a full programme of movement, workshops and mindful activities. Mornings begin with outdoor exercise followed by a yoga class tailored to all levels, so people who have never done yoga and people who practise regularly are in the same room. Workshops cover the detox process itself and nutrition guidance, so the week is as much about learning what to do afterwards as it is about the six days themselves. Guided walks and hikes are arranged to suit all abilities, and some evenings have activities planned too.
Between sessions there is deliberate space: time to journal, to sit quietly, to walk outside, and to step away from screens. The organisers describe the week as a gentle reset rather than a punishing regime, and they frame the technology break as part of the programme rather than an optional extra.
The group side of it matters here. The retreat is run in a mature, inclusive environment, and the organisers point to the community of people who attend as one of the reasons past guests come back. It is a shared experience — meals together, walks together, workshops together — rather than a solo silent week.
The lead teacher is Sinead, who runs Village Wellness classes and events in Limerick. Guest feedback on her classes describes a relaxed, patient teacher who adapts to different ages and abilities. The retreat is one of a number of programmes Village Wellness runs across the year, alongside weekend retreats in the Aran Islands, day-long spiritual retreats, and yoga and hiking weekends.
