Coming To Stay …
The monastic life has a long tradition of offering hospitality. The Sisters of the Love of God welcome men and women seeking a time of withdrawal and reflection. Although we don’t cater for groups, we provide space for individuals wishing to make their own private retreat. This could take the form of a quiet day or a short stay in our small guest house or one of the cottages in the grounds.
We invite our guests to share in our worship in Chapel and to join us for our midday meal in refectory which is normally a silent meal with reading. Basic supplies for breakfast and supper are provided in the accommodation.
There are no set charges for staying. We normally book people for up to a week at a time.
The Oxford Congestion Charge will be in force starting October 29th 2025. If you plan to drive to us, please take a look at our Maps & Directions page here
