BALLIN TEMPLE LIMITED

Ballin Temple Limited is a nature‑focused sanctuary and community hub nestled on the banks of the River Slaney, where ancient woodland still thrives. The organisation manages a sustainably‑run garden and surrounding lands, producing seasonal organic vegetables and clean hay, and offers visitors the chance to support its conservation work while enjoying walks through the historic woods that once echoed with the footsteps of the Knights Templar.

The site provides a range of experiences for nature lovers and lifelong learners. Guests can stay in one of the on‑site holiday cottages for an immersive retreat, or join specialist courses in gardening, yoga and personal and professional development delivered in partnership with leading experts. Ballin Temple also houses Astraea, a think‑tank dedicated to systemic change, and BreatheThinkFlow, which supplies resources for personal growth. By becoming a member of the community, individuals help fund the sanctuary’s ongoing conservation efforts and gain direct access to its tranquil riverside setting.
