TESTIMONIALS
From Our Clients
As part of our Retreat Programme students in Holy Child School Killiney spend time on overnight Retreats in Dromantine. This has been a valuable and treasured experience for students over many years.
The excellent facilities and beautiful grounds provide a variety of areas for quiet reflection, uplifting group discussion, and sacramental celebration.
Alongside this the wonderful hospitality and first-rate catering always ensures that our students are very well looked after. The outstanding Staff go to every length to provide an environment which is welcoming, respectful and supportive.
Dromantine is a very special place where our students have so many opportunities to develop spiritually and grow in faith. They enthusiastically return through their Senior Years, and always recount positive and uplifting accounts of their time there.

We discovered Dromantine Retreat Centre in 2005 and have used it almost every year since then for our international programs. It is a hidden gem for those wanting en suite accommodation at an affordable price, flexibility, and a wonderfully welcoming hospitality.
