Stunningly simple architecture, fantastic acoustics for listening to choral performances

Stunning location, lots of Green Space and Nature. They make lots of local produce from their farming area. Honey, Jams, eggs, breads. The Cooking is divine, lovely home cooked nourishing foods, catering for vegans and gluten free like myself. The rooms are very comfortable, spotlessly clean, very tastefully furnished. Such a beautiful stunning building. I will definitely go again. There was about 35 of us and no complaints.

Lovely quiet church with bookshop. Also retreat house and conference rooms. Good walks in area.

Wonderfully quiet place to get away from it all. The monks serve with such excellency and they truly welcome you to participate in as much or as little of their monastic rhythm as you’d like. They serve good quality food, whilst still maintaining the salubrious simplicity of the Abbey.

Wonderful acoustics. Peculiar architectural mashup

Friendly conference centre. The staff are nice and the bedroom was clean and comfortable. I love the emphasis they place on the monastic community and it’s history. My room was quite cold but they provided a portable heater for me. The food was exceptional. Some parts of the centre felt a little dated.

Visited on New Year's Eve for a choral concert. Really nice venue for that type of music.
