Further retreats and events to be confirmed
Our retreat house, St Bruno's, offers a warm welcome, comfortable accommodation and good food. All are welcome, whether you have been on retreat many times or are taking your first tentative steps on your faith journey. Our ministry is especially focused on providing the space and time for guests to retreat in a welcoming and calm place where they can step away from everyday life, explore their spirituality and join with the monastic community in the daily rhythm of prayer and liturgy.
We also invite enquiries from individual guests who wish to undertake a personal retreat either by booking a place on the Time Out - individual retreat, as part of the retreat programme or, occasionally, we may be able to accommodate your preferred dates. Please contact us to check availability.“Thank you for this wonderful space, and time to reset and rest. Truly an oasis for mind, body & soul."Booking form
Group retreats
Worth Abbey Retreat Centre
Worth Abbey is set in 500 acres of stunning West Sussex countryside. We are the ideal setting for your group retreat - Parish, Confirmation or other groups are welcome. Residential accommodation is in St Bruno’s, our retreat house and is fully inclusive - breakfast, lunch and dinner. We are pleased to welcome groups of up to 20 (maximum 25). The rooms are a combination of 3 single rooms, 10 twin rooms, the majority of which are en-suite and two family rooms (1 double and 2 single beds).
Our aim is to support leaders who bring groups to Worth by providing space in a secure, faith-focused and loving environment.
