Conference Facilities

Retreats, House Parties, PCC Away-Days and Out of Season Cottages

The best time for this type of booking avoids weekends in the main summer season (Easter - September) but midweek bookings are available February - November.

The sisters of the Society of St Margaret and the Shrine clergy are available, with prior notice, for spiritual guidance and conducted retreats.
