Paddi ran her own restaurant for over 12 years in Galway city
Seventh Heaven restaurant was famous in Galway for it’s amazing healthy food.
Paddi has been working full time at Burren Yoga for over 13 years since then.
A Paradise with surprising ease of access
The peacefulness and ancient feeling of The Burren have to be experienced to be believed.
Spending time on the west coast of Ireland is like stepping back 40 years in time, and the friendliness and easy going nature of the people makes one feel at home straight away.
Yet it is easy to get here with a choice of airports, train, bus and reduced fare taxi pickups.
https://www.burrenyoga.com/about/getting-here/
It takes 2 ½ hours to drive from Dublin, 90% on motorway.
The nearest bus and train goes to Gort which is 6 miles away and taxi from there costs €11.
Hand-picked team of the best yoga and meditation teachers
We run residential yoga retreat holidays with very experienced yoga and meditation teachers.
The centre was founded by yoga teacher Dave Brocklebank in 1999, who had the vision to build a comfortable yoga centre in one of the most spectacular and special places in Ireland…. The Burren.
The Burren Geopark is an area of unspoilt beauty consisting of spectacular shaped limestone hills which plunge down into the Atlantic ocean.
Dave has specially hand-picked 15 of the best yoga and meditation teachers to teach on these quality yoga retreats.
We only take 15 people on our retreats so that everybody gets very good individual attention.
“The memories of practicing yoga in this ancient place….. standing on these ancient rocks over looking the Atlantic….. will stay with me as one of the high-points for many years”
Amazing vegetarian food
Paddi our famous cook who used to run Seventh Heaven restaurant for over 12 years, has been with us full time since 2001. Her food is amazing and she caters for all dietary requirements.

Words won't be able to do this justice!!!! (But I will try) What an amazing trip from start to finish. I did a weekend here and from the moment I walked in the door I literally felt all my worries float away. I went by myself (which I have never done before for anything) and I have to say everyone is just so welcoming and I felt like I knew them all for years. I felt so relaxed…
