Just before Christmas 2017 we moved to Down Farm Cottage and began to develop a camp site and retreat centre. We have been able to realise our vision of a 15 acre eco-friendly Christian Retreat Centre and camp site. We are continuing to develop and improve our facilities.
At our retreat centre we currently provide :
− a quiet camp site, with space for five caravans/motorhomes and ten tents/trailer tents
− two bell tents, ready pitched and furnished, for your use; each one suitable for two adults and up to two children
− an orchard area with camp fire area for wood fires/BBQ
− opportunities to explore 15 acres of grounds that encourage and support bio-diversity, being sensitive to the environmental impact of all our activities
− opportunities to help out with caring for our chickens and sheep on our small-holding
− opportunities for engaging in spiritual growth and renewal (as members of the Retreat Association www.retreats.org.uk ) including camping retreats (both guided or self-guided retreats)
− one-to-one Spiritual Direction sessions for individuals
− a programme of themed day retreats
− day courses in art and craft activities; such as embroidery and felting
− opportunities for ‘away day’, ‘quiet day’, ‘retreat day’ events for groups
− a Quiet Garden space, as part of the Quiet Garden Movement www.quietgarden.org
