A brief introduction
Hi, my name is Miriam. Welcome to River Ayr Retreats!
River Ayr Retreats has been a passion and ambition of mine for several years. I have been fortunate to experience wellness retreats across the UK and South Africa. My journey to embracing wellness has not only been bumpy to say the least but it's also far from complete!
Following a few trial retreats at Airbnb locations, I purchased The Pines in Feb 2024 and started working towards my goal of sharing the space with people who like me just want and need a place to relax, refresh and rejuvenate.
As we say in Scotland, "Yer at yer aunties hoose" so kick off your shoes, curl up with a blanket and let me feed you!
