Everything is done right onsite, so you don't even have to drive offsite. John also offers guided "Forest bathing" hikes and his own Quartz healing recreated from a practice believed to have been used by ancient Druid healers right here in Ireland.

Blackwater River Fishing
The property is located minutes from the Blackwater River, which is nicknamed the “ Nile of Ireland.” The Blackwater just below Fermoy is known throughout Europe for its salmon and trout fishing (wild brown trout and seatrout) which is considered one of the best rivers for salmon in the North Atlantic (Canada, Iceland, UK, Norway etc.) According to local fishing guides the Blackwater in prior years was estimated to yield an average of between 5,000 - 6,000 salmon via rod catch each year.
