About us

Lake Isle Retreats is a family business owned by Tim and Carmen McEvitt, who host retreats in conjunction with a group of friends who are either self-employed therapists / facilitators, or are volunteers. We've hosted spiritual retreats at Upper Lough Erne, County Fermanagh from 2006-2011. During this time the accommodation was on Inis Rath Island which is owned by ISKCON N.I. Ltd., a registered charity based in Northern Ireland (No. XN79215). From May 2012 retreats have been based at the new 'base camp' on the shores of L. Erne across from Inis Rath. This facilitates expansion of our services, as on the island (due to regulations of the temple and monastic codes) we had certain limits on the services provided.

In the new retreat space guests continue to visit the temple and island. On Inis Rath there is a very beautiful Krishna temple. The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) is a worldwide spiritual organisation which promotes the Vedic culture and philosophy of ancient India.
