Situated on the west coast of Scotland, Iona is a sacred island known as a historic place of pilgrimage.

Traigh Bhan is the Findhorn Foundation's retreat house on this magical island. Traigh Bhan offers the opportunity for quiet contemplation, while the island itself - with its views and spectacular coastal scenery - is ideal for long walks of exploration and contact with nature's beauty.

If you need time to integrate the lessons of a workshop or space to reflect on your own journey and next steps, Traigh Bhan is the perfect place for spiritual rest and renewal. Comfortable and well-equipped, the house has its own peaceful sanctuary for prayer and meditation. Our residential Foundation custodian can guide you in making the most of your time.

Summer Retreat Weeks are an opportunity to walk barefoot on uneven ground, on the sand, wet grass, to reawaken your senses, and thereby your whole being. Choose a week to take time for yourself to experience the timelessness of Iona. The weeks are loosely structured, yet well held.

We suggest that you, or someone you are sharing the house with, have already completed a Findhorn Foundation Experience Week, or another Findhorn Foundation programme.

All retreats cost £245 - £445 according to individual circumstances. This includes 7 nights accommodation (maximum 6 guests) in shared rooms and vegetarian food for shared meals. Arrival time is midday Saturday, and departure time is the next Saturday morning. We ask you to attune to the final amount you pay, with our residential custodian, while you are at Traigh Bhan on Iona. Please pay only your deposit when you make your booking.
