THE GYREUM  for SESSHINs* and SESSIONs, for SOCIALS and SYMPOSIA

Primarily a neutral spiritual place, made for creative incubation and meditation. We welcome all well intentioned people to make their imprint. Well intentioned does not mean New Age fluffy or that we are short on humour.

Plum pudding shaped, on top of a hill, itself sat in a dish of hills. The Gyreum seeks to be invisible with its green roof.   We entertain retreats, rehearsals, weddings, klan assemblies, events that require marvellous acoustics. The Gyreum contains subtle facets of Zen living and Zen mentality without drawing attention to any religion or religious organization. 

As you rise out of the Midlands - and feel the first savagery of the North West - that is where the Gyreum looks out over Lough Arrow & 6 counties. An 100ft wide wooden telly tubby-esque edifice aligned to 3 solar events pointing toward the megalithic cairns of Moytura, Carrowkeel and Queen Maeve's tumulus on top of Knocknarae.

* A sesshin from Japanese literally "touching the heart-mind" is a period of intensive meditation (zazen) in a Zen monastery. The Gyreum's main focus is to host monthly zazen retreats, 3 day & 7day and once a season the Pilgrim's Progress, a 9 day form of meditative walking.
