Riverslea Retreat Schedule

Riverslea Retreat is a natural place for groups to meet, work and relax together.

Riverslea’s natural surroundings and comfortable lodge and the experience of hosts Lilian and Chris combine to create a unique environment that offers an alternative to the more corporate feel of hotels and conference centres or the basic facilities of some group accommodation.

We call our place a retreat because we know that it has a special atmosphere; people relax in the peaceful surroundings and clean fresh air and feel ready to tackle whatever they are here to do. Whether you are looking for a venue for a retreat, workshop, training event, conference, or a gathering, our team will work with you to ensure that your stay gives you the results you are looking for.

Below is the schedule of events available at the retreat for 2007.
