Ireland Women's Equine Retreat
County Mayo, West Ireland
June 15 - 22, 2026
Find Clarity, Confidence, and Healing in the Heart of Ireland
June 15 - 21, 2026
Limited to 12 women ready to reset, reconnect, and remember who they are.
7 Days of Horses, Healing, and Adventure on the Emerald Isle
Ready to trade emotional exhaustion for connection, joy, and deep inner calm — in one of the most breathtaking landscapes on earth?
A soulful, horse-guided retreat in West Ireland for women ready to heal from burnout, rediscover clarity, and experience the magic of Ireland’s landscape, music, and heart.
This special Wildheart retreat takes you to the wild west of Ireland for a transformative experience combining equine coaching, beach and mountain rides, cozy dinners, soul-deep conversations, and the kind of magic only horses and sea air can unlock.
You’ll ride along windswept beaches, across mossy trails, and through ancient Irish landscapes. You’ll laugh over three-course dinners, stretch beside the sea, and reconnect with the real you — the one who’s been waiting under the noise.
This isn’t just a vacation. It’s a homecoming.
Your Experience Includes:
Equine Experiences
Explore a mix of trail rides, beach rides, and equine coaching — no prior riding experience needed. You’ll work with intuitive Irish horses who reflect back your truth and invite you into presence.
Coaching & Integration
From group equine-assisted sessions to quiet moments of personal reflection, you’ll reconnect with your values, voice, and vision — and gain clarity about what’s next.
Private Luxury Lodging + Authentic Irish Hospitality
Stay in accommodations that combine charm and comfort. Gourmet meals, cozy group dinners, and fresh country air feed your body and spirit.
Adventure & Exploration
Enjoy a day trip to the Cliffs of Moher and Galway, a boat tour of the local lakes, and visits to tucked-away places most tourists never see.
Movement & Embodiment
Stretch, soften, and ground through yoga sessions on the beach (weather permitting) or in our cozy retreat space.
Cultural Touches
Experience a taste of Irish tradition with a visit to the Guinness Factory in Dublin on our final day.
1:1 CAREER CLARITY BLUEPRINT™
Before the retreat, you’re invited to complete a 20-minute assessment plus a 45-minute expert coaching debrief — using science-backed insights and your coach's two decades of leadership experience — to uncover why you’re stuck and what to do next.

Your home for the retreat is the 4-star Westport Woods Hotel & Spa, a peaceful haven nestled in a 300-year-old woodland just minutes from the charming town of Westport.
Surrounded by nature and infused with Irish hospitality, it offers the perfect balance of tranquility and comfort — a serene place to rest, reflect, and recharge between retreat experiences.
How It Works
This isn’t just a horseback riding vacation — it’s a soul-deep reset grounded in connection, nature, and presence.
You’ll reconnect with yourself through:
Intuitive Horse Time
Ride windswept beaches, climb mossy hills, and partner with sensitive Irish horses who mirror your energy and invite you back to your body.
Embodied Practices
Gentle movement, stretching, and beachside breathwork help you drop out of your head and into the moment.
Professional Coaching
Space for guided reflection, journaling prompts, and group conversations that bring clarity and connection.
Deep Integration Through Nature
The land itself is part of the work — cliffs, tides, fog, and green hills all echo the inner journey. You’ll feel it.
Afternoons are for trail rides, laughter, tea breaks, cultural adventures, and quiet moments to just be.
What you’ll walk away with:
-
A recalibrated nervous system and greater emotional resilience so stress doesn’t wreck your body or spirit
-
A deep sense of self-trust — the kind that makes decisions easier, boundaries stronger, and follow-through feel aligned and effortless.
-
Clear vision + sustainable action plan — with realistic steps that feel energizing, not depleting
-
Confidence that you can rise further without repeating old burnout patterns
-
The return of joy, presence, and the sense of “I get to live this.”
-
Practices you can continue forever — energy resets, somatic tools, boundary rituals, inner checks
This is not just a retreat, it's an opportunity to feel like yourself again — evolved, empowered, less burdened, more luminous.
This Retreat Is For You If:
-
You’re ready to stop performing and people pleasing and start leading from your real self
-
You crave calm, clarity, and emotional space to recover
-
You want to feel powerful, present, and authentic—not just productive

Testimonials
"Thoughtfully planned and expertly executed retreat - wholeheartedly recommended!! The fresh mountain air, the quaint cabins, the horses and the trail rides served as a perfect backdrop to help disconnect from the big city grind and tune into a journey of self-discovery. The activities throughout the week gradually increased in depth and helped us explore our true identities, our values and our purpose. Roxie created a safe and open space from the very first moment we connected, and demonstrated exceptional emotional intelligence, authenticity and compassion throughout the expertly crafted coaching process."

I just returned from an amazing retreat led by Roxie at Wildheart Equine Retreats! I came back feeling inspired and more authentic! The coaching helped me to see the places where I am stuck and to release the things holding me back. I really appreciated how spacious the retreat was, meaning that we had plenty of time to relax and reflect in between the coaching and rides. The ranch we stayed at was darling with amazing staff members. I felt so present and relaxed and came back feeling rejuvenated!

My experience with Wildheart Retreats has been nothing short of transformative. From the moment I arrived, Roxie created a safe, supportive, and empowering space that allowed me to truly connect—not only with myself, but with the incredible horse I was paired with for the entire week – the beautiful buck skin mare name Sandy.
Roxie has a gift for blending personal growth, equine connection, and sisterhood into one unforgettable experience. Wildheart Retreats is not just a getaway—it’s a true journey of discovery, healing, and empowerment.
