The Family Retreat

This retreat welcomes adults and children of all ages for a long weekend of Dharma teachings, meditation, discussion groups, games and sharing responsibilities.

Please note that only the Hermitage Wing remains silent during this retreat.

As childcare is not provided for children under 3, we strongly suggest (but do not require) that such children are accompanied by two adults. This will enable childcare to be shared so that each adult can participate more fully in the retreat.

This popular retreat is normally over-subscribed, so we ask that all applications are submitted by 1st April 2013. Individuals will then be contacted once places have been allocated.

Information will be required on each member of the family group. For more information about this unique retreat please check the website.
