Incredible scenery. Great company. And somewhere special to come back to at the end of the day. 🚲

Donegal is made for cycling adventures!

From quiet country roads to rugged coastal routes and Wild Atlantic views, there is so much to explore.

At Sandhill House, your cycling club can have the house exclusively to yourselves, with ensuite accommodation, great food and plenty of space to relax together.

And after a day on the bike?

Recover in the hot tub, sauna and cold pod, with the option to add Pilates or yoga sessions for strength, mobility and conditioning.

Cycle. Explore. Recover. Eat well. Relax. Repeat.

If your cycling club is planning its next group getaway, we would love to welcome you to Donegal.

One of the simplest things I do for my wellbeing?

I get outside every day🌿

Not because I always feel like it...

Because I always feel better afterwards.

Even 10 minutes in nature helps me slow down, clear my head and reconnect.

What's one small ritual that helps you feel like yourself again?

Your retreat doesn’t stop at the front door. 🚲

One of the most special parts of spending time in Donegal is having the space to get out, explore and experience the landscape around you.

A cycle through Dunfanaghy is just one way to take it all in, fresh air, open roads, beautiful scenery and nowhere you need to rush to.

Because time away can be about rest and stillness... but it can also be about movement, adventure and seeing somewhere new.

Just another little glimpse of what your time in Donegal could look like.

Looking back, I never set out to create what I offer today.

It evolved.

Physiotherapy.
Pilates.
Yoga.
Meditation.
Forest bathing.
Nature connection.
Shamanic practice.
The Celtic Wheel of the Year.
Somatic Educator
Women's work.
Retreats.

Each experience has shaped how I hold space today.

What I offer now feels like a beautiful blend of everything I've learned along the way.

Where science meets ancient wisdom.

Where movement meets stillness.

Where evidence-based practice meets intuition.

Where the body, mind and nature all have a place.

It's a blend that has evolved over many years, and one that continues to grow with every person I meet and every retreat I hold.

I'm so grateful to everyone who has been part of The Journey 🤍

Sometimes the best way to understand what a retreat can offer is to hear from the women who have experienced it for themselves. 🤍

From arriving unsure of what to expect to leaving feeling lighter, calmer and more connected, every woman’s experience at Sandhill House is beautifully personal.

Thank you to these wonderful women for sharing their stories and offering a glimpse into what a weekend retreat can bring.

Perhaps their words are the sign you’ve been waiting for…

Come as you are. Leave feeling more like yourself.

The wisdom of boundaries...

One of the biggest insights from our Journey Day Retreat was that boundaries aren't really about rules.

They're about creating the space to notice what we truly need.

When life is busy, it's easy to keep saying yes to everything and everyone.

But when we pause, even briefly, the answers often become much clearer.

For some women, the invitation was to trust their no.

For others, it was giving themselves permission to say yes to something that would genuinely nourish them.

Both are acts of self-care.

So here's a question...

Where does a no need to be honoured in your life right now?

Or where might a yes change everything?

Both create space for what really matters.

And when we honour what we need, everyone around us benefits too.

Meet Janet 🤍

One of the very special members of the team here at Lucille Cassidy Retreats.

If you've joined us on retreat, you'll know Janet as the calm, reassuring presence who gently guides our sea dips.

What many people don't know is that her own journey with cold water and breathwork only began a few years ago.

"I had no experience with the cold or breathwork and only knew a little about Wim Hof. I thought it would be a good adventure for my 50th birthday… little did I know it would change my life."

Since then, Janet has travelled to Poland, the Netherlands and Sweden, meeting Wim Hof at each event and deepening her understanding of breathwork and cold water.

She has also just completed her Ice Bath Teacher Training with and is now officially a certified Ice Bath Teacher. 🌊

Today, she brings all of that experience to our retreats....not by forcing people into the sea, but by meeting them exactly where they are.

With warmth, kindness, encouragement and her infectious sense of humour, she helps each person find the confidence to take that first step into the water.

We are so grateful to have Janet as part of our retreat team.🤍
