The Golden Mile Rambling House: A Storytelling Masterclass

A day-long celebration of Ireland's Rambling House tradition, led by Kells-based writer and teacher Dr. Simon Thomas.

Through two hands-on sessions (10am–12pm and 2–4pm), you'll explore the principles of storytelling, the traditions of the Rambling House, the hidden history of the Golden Mile - and learn how to shape and tell a story of your own, rooted in the places you know.

Includes a home-cooked lunch and a guided historical ramble down the Golden Mile.

Run on a cost-recovery basis: €60 per person covers lunch, materials and venue; concessions €45.

Booking essential: 085 745 2847 or goldenmileretreats.com.

Saturday 15 August, Golden Mile, Mullagh (A82 YR58).

The lunchtime historical ramble down the Golden Mile is free and open to the public — masterclass participants will be joined by walkers attending the ramble as a stand-alone Heritage Week event. Outdoor walking on country lanes; sensible footwear advised.
