Choose from different types of retreats throughout the year: residential retreats, which are either themed & guided or self-led; quiet day retreats for individuals or groups; and residential Discovery Retreats - for you to learn more about Jesus, the Christian faith and even yourself.

If you’d like to arrange a bespoke themed retreat for your small group, which is outside of our themed retreat dates, then please do talk to us about that.


Please choose your retreat using one of the biuttons below.

Our themed retreats have set dates and a little structure, giving you the opportunity to step away from everyday life, spend time with God and explore a particular theme alongside other Christians.


There’s plenty of space to rest and be yourself, with as much or as little participation as you choose. You won’t be expected to have all the answers. Come just as you are.


Explore our upcoming themes and dates below.

Sometimes you simply need the freedom to retreat at a time that works for you, without a set programme or timetable.


Our self-led retreats give you the space to shape your time in whatever way feels right, whether you’re coming on your own, as a couple or with a small church group.

Rest, reflect, pray, explore or simply enjoy some quiet time away. It’s your retreat, your pace and your space.


Choose your dates and make the retreat your own.

A space to explore Jesus, the Christian faith and what it might mean for you.


Our Discovery Retreats are for those who are genuinely seeking Jesus, curious about the Christian faith, or very new to following Him.

With time to ask questions, reflect, explore and simply be yourself, these retreats offer a relaxed and welcoming space to discover more -without pressure, expectation or having to have everything figured out.


Come as you are and take some time to explore.


See our upcoming dates below.

Sometimes you don’t need to go away for a whole weekend - you just need a day to breathe.


Our self-led Day Retreats offer a quiet space to step away from the busyness of everyday life, slow down and spend some unhurried time with the Lord.


Come on your own, as a couple or with a small church group, and use the day in whatever way suits you. Rest, reflect, pray, walk, read or simply enjoy the peace. There’s no set programme and no pressure, just space to be still and listen.


Take a quiet day for yourself and see what a little breathing space can do.
